Recommendations for 67SD Timer

The recommended setting for the 67SD timer is the sum of the following three times: 

Control input recognition time (including the debounce timer)

Remote Level 3 nondirectional low-set overcurrent element maximum operating time

Maximum communications channel time

For the control input recognition time and maximum communication channel time calculations for 
the SEL-421-5, see

Remote Level 3 Nondirectional Low-Set Overcurrent Element Maximum Operating Time

The remote relay in this example is the SEL-311C-0. The maximum Level 3 operating time of the 
SEL-311C-0 is 1.50 cycles.
