 2 Introduction

Introduction
An SEL-7250 Retrofit Solution equipped with an SEL-710 or an SEL-710-5
Motor Protection Relay (only the SEL-710-5 is available with an optional touch-
screen display) is designed to provide in-kind replacement of key features of a
GE Multilin 469 relay. You can save significant time and engineering costs when
you use the SEL-7250 solution compared to a custom replacement design. This
assembly is suitable for the retrofit of existing relays with thermal devices
(RTDs). Ensure you select the appropriate assembly for your application prior to
starting a replacement. This guide provides a broad description of an SEL-7250
with an SEL-710 or an SEL-710-5 and provides a step-by-step procedure to suc-
cessfully install the assembly.

Wiring Diagrams
With interposing terminals labeled consistently with the previous device, draw-
ings need not be updated for an SEL-7250 solution, other than identifying the
SEL device as the active protective device, as desired. Relay part numbers may
vary from assembly to assembly and may be identified on the side of the relay.
Consult the manual for detailed protective relay specifications. SEL-7250 wiring
diagrams and schematics are included in this installation guide. Refer to them if
you choose to make updates to your existing drawings.

DANGER Follow your company’s practices to remove the device from service. Relay
Contact with instrument terminals can replacement requires modification to critical CT circuits and likely places per-
cause electrical shock that can result sonnel within restricted approach boundaries of arc-flash and shock hazards. Be
in injury or death.
sure to exercise proper lockout-tagout procedures and use appropriate personal
WARNING protective equipment for the task.
Have only qualified personnel service
this equipment. If you are not quali-
fied to service this equipment, you can
injure yourself or others, or cause
equipment damage.

Required Tools
The following tools may be required for installation of this SEL-7250 Retrofit
Solution:
➤ Ferrule crimper
➤ Ring terminal crimper
➤ Nut driver
➤ Screwdriver

Installation Steps
Step 1. Label each existing wire on the currently connected device with the
provided wire labels. For example, you should label a wire landed on
the existing Terminal A1 as A1. Place wire tags roughly 2.54 cm
(1 in) from the existing termination, leaving room for wires to be
stripped and re-terminated if needed.

Step 2. Once it is safe to do so, disconnect the CT and PT secondary circuit

wires from the terminals on the existing device. You can find these
terminations at the bottom of the existing device, designated as
G1–G10 and H1–H10.
Do not cut these wires. Existing ring lugs may be reused.
Trip coil monitor, ground, and power supply wiring ring terminals
may be reused. These are designated as E11, G12, F11, H11, and
H12.
Step 3. Disconnect any remaining connections from your existing device. If
any control wiring (other than the wiring referenced in Step 2) has
ring lugs or forks, cut them off as close to the crimp barrel as possible
to preserve as much conductor length as possible.
Step 4. At this point in the process, the existing device should not have any
connections. Remove the device from the panel by depressing the
mounting flanges along the perimeter of the device chassis.
Step 5. From the front of the existing panel, insert the SEL-7250 into the
empty panel hole left from the previous device at a slight angle, har-
ness side first.

NOTE: The torque values given for Step 6. Thread the provided hardware nuts onto each of the mounting studs

Step 9. Using the wire tags from Step 1 as your guide, land the remaining
wires on their correspondingly labeled push-in terminal blocks. You
can push solid wire or ferrule terminated wires directly into the pro-
vided terminal block cages.
To insert stranded wires, depress the orange pushbutton on the top of
the terminal block, insert the wire, and release the pushbutton to
secure the wire. Pull gently on each wire to ensure that it is fully
seated in the terminal block. A pen or small screwdriver may be used
to depress the orange pushbutton.
Each connection will accommodate a single wire. If the existing wir-
ing has two wires on a single terminal, use the adjacent connection
point on the terminal block if equipped. If the provided terminal
block does not provide an adjacent connection point, the assembly
may have spare multipoint terminal blocks that may be used. Other-
wise, existing panel wiring must be modified to accommodate the
unique wiring for your application.
