Description
The SIPROTEC 7SD87 differential protection device is suita-
ble for the selective protection of overhead lines and ca-
bles with singleended and multi-ended infeed of all
lengths with up to 6 ends. Transformers and compensa-
ting coils in the protection range are also possible. With its
modular structure, flexibility and the high-performance
DIGSI 5 engineering tool, the SIPROTEC 7SD87 device of-
fers future-oriented solutions for protection, control, auto-
mation, monitoring, and Power Quality – Basic. SIPROTEC 5 Device with Expansion Module
