COMECA has developed a Retrofit solution called [GemStart5-R](https://www.comeca-group.com/en/our-solutions/gemstart5-motor-protection-relay/gemstart-5-beyond-a-simple-motor-protection/gemstart-5-r-your-gemstart-upgrade-solution/), which consists of the replacement of all older versions of GemStart protection relays (from GemStart1 to GemStart4) with the latest GemStart5 version. GemStart5-R is the fastest and most cost effective solution to modernize your switchboard. GemStart5 can co-exist on the same network as older versions of GemStart, enabling you to perform upgrades with no need to change out the entire GemStart network. Retrofitting is a practical and least disruptive way to address both planned and unplanned outages, improving equipment operation and reliability for the short and long term.
