ABB REJ603 Relion 605 Series Self-Powered Feeder Protection Relay
The ABB REJ603 is a self-powered feeder protection relay belonging to the ABB Relion 605 series, engineered for medium-voltage secondary distribution networks, ring main units (RMUs), and compact switchgear. Operating without requiring an external auxiliary power supply, it derives its operating and trip energy directly from the main current transformers (CTs), making it reliable for remote or unmanned substations where auxiliary control power is unavailable.
Protection Functions and Characteristics
The relay provides non-directional three-phase overcurrent protection (ANSI 50/51) and earth-fault protection (ANSI 50N/51N), supplemented by inrush-current restraint and thermal overload protection (ANSI 49). Time-current characteristics include definite time and inverse definite minimum time (IDMT) curves such as normal inverse, very inverse, extremely inverse, long-time inverse, RI, and specialized fuse curves. Earth-fault measurement is handled via internal vector calculation from phase CTs or an external core-balance current transformer (CBCT).
Interface, Power Options, and Outputs
Configuration parameters are adjusted via onboard DIP switches, while operational status is indicated through READY and internal relay failure (IRF) LEDs alongside a manual-reset mechanical trip flag. While primarily CT-powered, the unit supports optional front-panel USB power input for event log reading and configuration tasks. Output signaling includes capacitor-discharge impulse outputs for low-energy trip coils and optional bistable trip contact outputs, with a binary input provided for remote tripping commands.
