1 INTRODUCTION 1.1OVERVIEW 1.1.1 DESCRIPTION
The 489 Generator Management Relay is a microprocessor-based relay designed for the protection and management of
synchronous and induction generators. The 489 is equipped with 6 output relays for trips and alarms. Generator protection,
fault diagnostics, power metering, and RTU functions are integrated into one economical drawout package. The single line
diagram below illustrates the 489 functionality using ANSI (American National Standards Institute) device numbers.

Fault diagnostics are provided through pretrip data, event record, waveform capture, and statistics. Prior to issuing a trip,
the 489 takes a snapshot of the measured parameters and stores them in a record with the cause of the trip. This pre-trip
data may be viewed using the key before the trip is reset, or by accessing the last trip data in actual values page 1.
The event recorder stores a maximum of 40 time and date stamped events including the pre-trip data. Every time a trip
occurs, the 489 stores a 16 cycle trace for all measured AC quantities. Trip counters record the number of occurrences of
each type of trip. Minimum and maximum values for RTDs and analog inputs are also recorded. These features allow the
operator to pinpoint a problem quickly and with certainty.
