Description

ABB Transformer protection and control RET615 ANSI Numerical Relay

ABB TRANSFORMER PROTECTION AND CONTROL RET615 ANSI NUMERICAL RELAY RELIABILITY, SECURITY, AND DEPENDABILITY WITH RELION

ABB RET615 ANSI is a dedicated transformer protection and control relay for power transformers, unit and step-up transformers, including power generator-transformer blocks in utility and industrial power distribution systems.

RET615 is a member of ABB’s Relion product family and a part of its 615 protection and control product series. The 615 series relays are characterized by their compactness and withdrawable design. Engineered from the ground up, the 615 series has been designed to unleash the full potential of the IEC 61850 standard for communication and interoperability between substation automation devices.

Scope

Ideal protection for two-winding power transformers and power generator-transformer blocks
