Description
The SIPROTEC 7SA82 distance protection has been de-
signed particularly for the cost-optimized and compact
protection of lines in medium-voltage and high-voltage
systems. With its flexibility and the high-performance
DIGSI 5 engineering tool, the SIPROTEC 7SA82 device of-
fers future-oriented solutions for protection, control, auto-
mation, monitoring, and Power Quality – Basic.
