GE Multilin G60 Generator Management Relay

Description

Built on the industry-leading UR platform, the G60 offers robust protection for medium and large generators, including steam and combustion turbines, combined cycle generators, and multi-circuit hydro units. It can also be used on pumped storage generators without requiring CT secondary circuitry switching. The G60 features advanced communication capabilities with an integrated, fully managed Ethernet switch, reducing network installation costs and supporting industry-standard communication protocols.

Key Benefits
