Digital Voltage, Frequency, and Overexcitation Protection Relay
Instruction Manual
Conformity
This product is in conformity with the directive of the Council of the European Communities on the approximation
of the laws of the Member States relating to electromagnetic compatibility (EMC Council Directive 89/336/EEC)
and concerning electrical equipment for application within specified voltage limits (Low-voltage directive
73/23 EEC).
Conformity is proved by tests that had been performed according to article 10 of the Council Directive in
accordance with the generic standards EN 50081 and EN 50082 (for EMC directive) and the standards EN
60255-6 (for low-voltage directive) by Siemens AG.
The device is designed in accordance with the international standards of IEC 255 and the German standards DIN
57 435 part 303 (corresponding to VDE 0435 part 303).

Conformity 7RW600 V1.0
When the relay is shipped from the factory, it is preset to operate with a rated power system frequency of 50 Hz. If
the rated system frequency is 60 Hz, the relay must be reset accordingly. Conversion to 60 Hz operation is explained
in detail in the operating instructions in Section NO TAG. In the following, conversion to 60 Hz is described in an
abbreviated form.
The operating interface is characterized by a hierarchically structured menu tree which can be navigated through by
means of the scrolling keys , , n , and o. Thus, each menu item, or setting parameter, can be reached as illustrated
in the example below.
After the relay has been powered on, the green Service LED illuminates and the red Blocked LED lights up until
the processor system is up and running. The display shows the relay identification, 7RW600, and the version of the
implemented firmware, V1.***.
