The SWARTZ® Type 64 Structure Ground Relay from
SMC provides dual functions for high resistance ground DC switchgear. The relay is
designed to protect equipment enclosures and alert personnel to "ground" and
"hot" fault conditions in DC switchgear and rectifiers. These high resistance
relays provide superior performance and operational reliability through solid state
components, rugged construction and self-diagnostic features.

The SWARTZ® Type 64 High Resistance Structure Ground Relays
alert personnel visually and through alarm output contacts when a DC switchgear structure
or rectifier becomes grounded through a breach in the insulation. Annunciation occurs when
the voltage sensing trip system has been by-passed by grounding or when the relay's
self-diagnostic feature determines that an internal failure has occured. The relay also
alerts personnel when a leakage or fault occurs between the bus and structure ("hot
structure"). Normally, the output is connected to a lockout relay to automatically
de-energize the entire station. The not structure function detects both AC and DC leakages
and faults. Setpoints for ground structure annunciation and hot structure trip are
adjustable. Test buttons for both ground structure annunciation does not occur, the
Sturcture Ground Relay will provide continuous operation if voltage does not exceed 800
VDC or 700 VDC with 600 VAC superimposed (rectifier faults).
