Basler Electric Guide to Common IEEE Device Function Numbers

6/16/09

The devices in switching equipment are referred to by numbers, according to the functions they perform. These numbers are based on a system which has been adopted as standard for automatic switchgear by IEEE. This system is used on connection diagrams, in instruction books, and in specifications. The following list can be found in IEEE Std C37.2-2008. Device No. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 Function Master Element Time-Delay Starting or Closing Relay Checking or Interlocking Relay Master Contactor Stopping Device Starting Circuit Breaker Anode Circuit Breaker Control Power Disconnecting Device Reversing Device Unit Sequence Switch Multifunction device Overspeed Device Synchronous-Speed Device Underspeed Device Speed, or Frequency Matching, Device Data communications device Shunting or Discharge-Switch Accelerating or decelerating device Starting to Running Transition Contactor Electrically Operated Valve Distance Relay Equalizer Circuit Breaker Temperature Control Device Volts per Hertz relay Synchronizing or Synchronism Check Relay Apparatus Thermal Device Undervoltage Relay Flame detector Isolating Contactor or switch Annunciator Relay Separate Excitation Device Directional Power Relay Position Switch Master Sequence Switch Brush-Operating or Slip-Ring Short-Circuiting Device Polarity Device Undercurrent or Underpower Relay 1

Basler Electric serves the electric power industry with solid state relays for feeder, transmission, bus, transformer, generator and motor protection applications. Designed to operate in harsh electrical environments, meeting or exceeding ANSI/IEEE and IEC standards, Basler utility grade and industrial grade relays offer high accuracy, low burden, flexibility, and low maintenance. Basler's microprocessor based relays combine multifunction protection with control, metering, data acquisition, and networked communications. Basler's retrofit relays provide a direct "plug and play" replacement for many obsolete designs and other Basler relays fit into the cutouts of older electromechanical relays.
