The T60 Transformer Protection System is a comprehensive three-phase transformer relay designed to protect medium and large power transformers. The T60 provides automatic or user definable magnitude reference winding selection for CT ratio matching, and performs automatic phase shift compensation for all types of transformer winding connections. The T60 algorithm allows the user to enable removal of the zero-sequence current even for deltaa connected transformer windings, facilitating transformers with a variety of grounding configurations. As part of the Universal Relay (UR) Family, the T60 provides superior protection and control that includes:
Oscillography – analog and digital parameters at 64 samples/cycle
Event Recorder - 1024 time tagged events with 0.5ms scan of digital inputs
Data Logger - 16 channels with sampling rate up to 1 sample / cycle
Setting Security Audit Trail for tracking changes to T60 configuration
The T60 includes high accuracy metering and recording for all AC signals. Voltage, current, and power metering are built into the relay as a standard feature. Current and voltage parameters are available as total RMS magnitude, and as fundamental frequency magnitude and angle. Also, harmonic measurements for voltage and current up to 25th for power quality applications.
T60 can monitor, calculate and log hottest-spot temperature, aging factor and lost of life data over a long period. These data combined with economic analysis, allows criteria to be developed regarding the best time at which to replace a power transformer due to load growth, i.e. to minimize the cost without
Multi-Breaker application example
The T60 incorporates advanced automation features including powerful FlexLogic™ programmable logic, communication, and SCADA capabilities that far surpass what is found in the average transformer relay. The T60 integrates seamlessly with other UR relays for complete system protection.
Flexlogic™ allows for customizing the T60 to operate and control the breakers and other auxiliary devices needed to fit most generator protection schemes and applications.

In addition to providing high-speed connectivity directly to your Universal Relay, the MultiLink UR Switch module provides an additional 4 Fiber Ethernet ports, for connection to other relays in the system as well as upstream connectivity. It also provides 2 RJ-45 copper Ethernet ports which can be used to connect local devices such as PCs, meters, or virtually anything else in the system.
The UR Switch provides a simple way to add fully-managed Ethernet networking to your relays and devices without the need for additional hardware or a dedicated communications cabinet.
The UR Switch includes all the management and features that come with all MultiLink managed switches, and can be easily integrated into a network that has other Ethernet switches.
When used in a ring topology with other UR switch modules or MultiLink switches, the UR Switch can be configured to use MultiLink’s Smart RSTP feature to provide industry-leading network recovery for ring topologies, at a speed of less than 5ms per switch. Learn More

Access Control
Multilin devices and relays are designed with simple but powerful security to enable reliability and compliance for virtually any project or implementation. With support for multi-level permissions and multi-factor supervisory controls, Multilin devices can help you manage the integrity of your system during commissioning, testing, implementation, and beyond.
The UR Family provides separate authentication for settings and commands to the system. In addition, as discrete authentications for local and remote access, it also provides a supervisory control factor that can lock or unlock a device for configuration changes and other modifications.
Intrusion Detection
Multilin’s family of protection and control products can also help enable your security perimeter and intrusion detection programs. By providing essential alarming and logging of critical events, Multilin devices can help you detect potential breaches within your system and allow you to respond quickly and effectively. Specifically, unsuccessful access attempts are logged, alarmed, and lead to potential attackers being locked out. This ensures the reliability of your system during questionable activity.control factor that can lock or unlock a device for configuration changes and other modifications.
