  • Robust module housing with IP65 protection rating (when properly installed)
  • Plug-in module form factor matching UR relay chassis
  • Multiple communication connectors (Ethernet, RS-485, USB) on rear panel

Working Principle: The module receives current and voltage signals from CTs and VTs, conditions and digitizes them, and transmits the data to the UR relay CPU for protection and metering functions. The CPU processes the data using protection algorithms and issues control signals through the module’s output circuits. Communication interfaces enable data exchange with SCADA, DCS, and other monitoring systems via Modbus, DNP3, or IEC 61850 protocols. Installation Requirements:

  • Mount inside the UR relay chassis using the plug-in module interface
  • Connect CT and VT inputs to the rear terminal blocks per schematics
  • Wire communication interfaces (Ethernet, RS-485, USB) to external systems
  • Configure CT/VT ratios and communication parameters using EnerVista UR software
  • Verify measurement accuracy during commissioning

Usage Notes:

  • Verify CT and VT ratio settings match the installed instrument transformers
  • Configure communication protocol parameters to match the supervisory system
  • Use shielded cabling for CT/VT inputs to minimize noise
  • Periodically verify measurement accuracy using a relay test set
  • Replace only with an identical UR8HH module to maintain configuration integrity
