ABB REF610 Feeder Line Protection Relay Product Overview
Product overview
3.1 Purpose of the relay
The feeder protection relay REF610 is a multifunctional protection relay primarily used to protect incoming and outgoing lines in various feeder applications.
The relay is based on a microprocessor environment. A self-monitoring system continuously monitors the operation of the relay.
The human-machine interface includes a liquid crystal display (LCD) that makes local use of the relay safe and easy.
The relays can be controlled locally via serial communications from a computer connected to the front communication port.
Remote control is available through a serial communications bus connected to the rear connector of the control and monitoring system.
