A frequency relay issues a documented output for a configured frequency condition.

## What it represents

A frequency relay issues a documented output for a configured frequency condition. The schematic identifies its measurement input and links its thresholds to the settings record.

## How to read it

- Determine whether high frequency, low frequency or both are monitored.
- The preview is an original explanation of this function. Match the actual drawing convention to its legend and the selected equipment documentation.

## Information to show or reference

- Name measured bus
- Reference thresholds and delay
- Show output contacts

## Important distinction

A frequency relay applies operating criteria; a frequency meter only indicates the measured value.

## Facts
