Typical Applications
System Compatibility
The MMLG01 test block is compatible with the following ALSTOM / GE relay families (non-exhaustive):
For other relay families, confirm the test block terminal layout against the relay’s wiring diagram before installation.
Selection Guide
Use the following criteria to select the correct test block for your application:
| Selection Criterion | Guidance |
|---|---|
| Relay model | Match test block to relay’s designated MMLG variant per relay manual |
| Pole count | Count CT/VT and binary I/O circuits requiring isolation; select MMLG01 / MMLG011 / MMLG021 accordingly |
| CT secondary rating | Confirm 1 A or 5 A CT secondary; verify test block current rating matches |
| Voltage rating | Ensure test block rated voltage ≥ VT secondary voltage (typically 110 V or 63.5 V) |
| Mounting space | Verify panel cutout dimensions; MMLG01 requires standard ALSTOM panel mounting |
| Replacement vs. new installation | For like-for-like replacement, use OEM MMLG01; for new panels, consider current GE MiCOM test block equivalents |
Quality Assurance & Sourcing
How to Order
Replacement & Compatibility FAQ
Q: Can I use a generic RTB (relay test block) instead of the MMLG01?
A: Generic test blocks may be physically compatible but could differ in contact shorting sequence and current rating. Always verify against the relay’s wiring diagram. For critical protection applications, OEM parts are strongly recommended.
Q: Is the MMLG01 still manufactured?
A: ALSTOM’s grid protection division was acquired by GE (now GE Vernova). The MMLG01 continues to be available as a GE Grid Solutions part. Konmask.com also maintains stock of genuine legacy ALSTOM units.
Q: What is the difference between MMLG01 and MMLG011?
A: The MMLG011 typically offers an additional pole configuration for more complex relay wiring schemes. Refer to your relay’s installation manual for the correct variant designation.
Q: Can the MMLG01 be used with MiCOM P series relays?
A: Yes, the MMLG01 is compatible with many MiCOM P series relays. Confirm the specific relay model’s test block requirement in the GE MiCOM relay manual.
Q: Do you offer project/bulk pricing?
A: Yes. Contact [email protected] with your BOM and required quantities for a project quotation.
