The 369 family is offered in multiple ordering-code combinations. Published records show differences between HI and LO versions and between configurations with or without metering, RTDs, fiber optics, enhanced diagnostics, and communication options. Therefore, the table above intentionally avoids assigning options that cannot be established from 369-HI-0-M-0-E-0 alone.
Product Introduction
The GE Multilin 369-HI-0-M-0-E-0 is a motor management relay intended for protection and monitoring of industrial motors. The 369 platform combines motor protection functions with operating measurements, event information, and configurable protection parameters, allowing the relay to supervise the electrical and thermal condition of a motor and initiate protective action when configured limits are exceeded.
The GE Multilin 369-HI-0-M-0-E-0 belongs to the HI control-power configuration of the 369 family and includes the M metering option according to the published ordering-code records. It should not, however, be treated as interchangeable with every other 369-HI model. Options for RTD inputs, fiber communications, enhanced faceplate/diagnostics, and other functions vary across the 369 ordering structure.

Application Scenarios & Field Pitfalls — Engineer’s Perspective
The 369 is intended for medium- and large-motor protection and management, particularly where a single relay must monitor motor electrical conditions and provide configurable protection rather than simply perform overcurrent protection. Typical applications include pumps, compressors, fans, conveyors, process motors, and other three-phase motor-driven equipment.
Typical applications
- Industrial motor protection — overload and thermal protection with configurable motor parameters.
- Pump and fan systems — monitoring motor loading and abnormal operating conditions.
- Process machinery — protection of motors integrated into continuous production equipment.
- Motor control centers — centralized protection and monitoring of individual motor feeders.
- Legacy plant automation — replacement of existing GE Multilin 369 relays while retaining established protection settings and wiring.
Engineering considerations
- Match the complete ordering code.
369-HI-0-M-0-E-0is not equivalent to369-HI-R-M-0-E-0-E,369-HI-R-M-F-0-H-E, or another 369 variant. - Verify control power. HI and LO versions have different control-power specifications. Do not energize a replacement until the installed auxiliary supply has been confirmed.
- Check CT wiring and motor full-load current settings. Incorrect CT ratios or motor parameters can compromise protection behavior.
- Do not assume RTD capability. Some 369 configurations include optional RTD inputs; the presence of an RTD option must be verified for the exact relay.
- Check communications separately. Metering and communications options vary across the 369 ordering structure. Do not infer a specific Ethernet, Modbus, or fiber interface from the base 369 designation.
- Back up protection settings before replacement. Motor thermal model parameters, overload curves, acceleration settings, start limits, and trip thresholds should be documented.
- Review the event history after commissioning. A successful power-up does not prove that CT polarity, phase sequence, motor parameters, and protective settings are correct.
- Treat it as legacy protection hardware. For a long-term plant strategy, evaluate the existing 369 installation against the available replacement platform rather than assuming another 369 variant is a direct upgrade.

Procurement Note
For 369-HI-0-M-0-E-0, the safest procurement practice is to match the complete ordering code and relay nameplate, not simply “GE Multilin 369.” Before installation, verify control-power range, CT configuration, motor FLA, metering option, communication hardware, RTD availability, firmware/software compatibility, and the existing protection settings.
