Quasar-V Relay Test Set: Scalable Secondary Injection Test Set for IEC 61850 and GOOSE Relay Testing

Looking for a flexible and accurate relay test set for protection relay testing, secondary injection testing, and IEC 61850 applications? The Quasar-V Smart Relay Tester is a scalable secondary injection test set designed for utilities, industrial facilities, maintenance companies, commissioning teams, and relay manufacturers that need reliable relay testing equipment with advanced digital substation capabilities.

The Quasar-V relay tester combines integrated voltage amplifiers, convertible voltage outputs, IEC 61850 testing capability, GOOSE messaging support, and modular expandability. It is ideal for users who require a professional three-phase relay test set today, with the option to upgrade to a full Quasar configuration whenever dedicated current amplifiers are needed.

Advanced Secondary Injection Test Set for Protection Relay Testing

The Quasar-V is an industrial-grade secondary injection test set designed for testing protection relays in substations, industrial power systems, and digital protection schemes. It supports a wide range of protection relay testing applications, including overcurrent, distance, differential, voltage, frequency, and IEC 61850-based protection functions.

The Quasar-V includes integrated voltage amplifiers and 4 x 300 V voltage outputs. As in the Quasar platform, these voltage outputs can be converted into current outputs, allowing flexible configurations such as 4 x 5 A or 3 x 5 A + 1 x 300 Vdc. This makes the Quasar-V a versatile relay tester for many routine maintenance, commissioning, and troubleshooting tasks.

Unlike the standard Quasar configuration, the Quasar-V does not include dedicated current amplifiers as standard. However, it can be upgraded to a full Quasar relay test set by adding the standard plug-and-play current amplifier module with three current outputs. This module can be purchased separately and installed at any time, allowing users to expand the system as their relay testing requirements grow.

IEC 61850 and GOOSE Testing for Digital Substations

Modern substations increasingly rely on digital communication protocols, making IEC 61850 testing an essential requirement for protection relay engineers and commissioning teams. The Quasar-V relay tester is designed to support IEC 61850-based relay testing, including applications involving GOOSE messages and communication-based protection schemes.

With its IEC 61850 and GOOSE testing capabilities, the Quasar-V helps users verify the correct operation of digital relays, protection logic, interlocking schemes, and automation functions. This makes it a valuable secondary injection test set for utilities, system integrators, industrial plants, and maintenance companies working with digital substations.

Flexible Output Configuration

The Quasar-V Smart Relay Tester includes 4 x 300 V voltage outputs with integrated voltage amplifiers. These outputs can also be converted to current mode, providing alternative current output configurations when required.

• 4 x 300 V voltage outputs for voltage-based relay testing applications.
• 4 x 5 A current configuration using the convertible voltage outputs.
• 3 x 5 A + 1 x 300 Vdc configuration for applications requiring current outputs and one DC voltage output.
• Upgradeable current capability through the optional plug-and-play current amplifier module.

This flexible architecture makes the Quasar-V suitable for users who need a compact relay test set with advanced voltage outputs, moderate current capability, and future expansion to dedicated current amplifiers.

Upgradeable Relay Test Set: From Quasar-V to Quasar

One of the key advantages of the Quasar-V is its scalability. Users can start with the Quasar-V configuration and later upgrade the equipment to a full Quasar relay test set by adding the standard module with three dedicated current outputs.

The current amplifier module can be purchased separately and installed at any time through a simple plug-and-play process. This allows companies to avoid replacing their relay testing equipment when their requirements grow, making the Quasar-V a future-proof investment for protection relay testing.
