UR-8FV

About the UR-8FV

Designed to replace old modules or upgrade existing Universal Relay systems, General Electric Multilin’s UR-8FV is a CT/VT module that supplies that relay with 3-1A/5A phase CTs, 1A/5A ground CTs, and a four terminal voltage transformer. The module is vital for monitoring and managing AC power lines and also increases general safety for users and power system equipment.

Information on how to properly connect the module can be found in most of the Universal Relays manuals, which provide vital details and warnings that can determine whether an installation is successful or not. Buyers most often use size 12 American Wire Gauge (AWG) to connect the module, though the relay will accept a maximum of size 10 American Wire Gauge. 

General Electric Multilin has produced an enormous amount of CT/VT modules for the Universal Relays series, so it is recommended that buyers properly research all options before making a purchase. Some of the modules include features such as sensitive ground protection and enhanced diagnostics, which can be especially useful for high demand systems. Sensitive ground input modules offer ten times the sensitivity than the ground CT input on their respective non-sensitive counterparts.
