ABB REF611 Feeder Protection Relay

The feeder protection relay REF611 can be supplied either with directional or non-directional overcurrent and earth-fault protection. Directional earth-fault protection is mainly used in isolated neutral or compensated networks, whereas the non-directional earth fault protection is intended for directly or low-impedance earthed neutral networks.

REF611 is a member of ABB’s Relion product family and part of its 611 protection and control series of relays.
