Product Introduction
The ABB REC650 1MRK008514-CB is a bay control intelligent electronic device from the ABB Relion 650 series. It is used to control, monitor, and protect switchgear bays in medium- and high-voltage substations, including circuit breakers, disconnectors, and earthing switches.
REC650 integrates bay control, interlocking, measurement, supervision, and protection functions in one device. It supports local operation through the front-panel HMI and remote control via SCADA or substation automation systems. With IEC 61850 communication and GOOSE messaging, it can participate in bay-level and station-wide interlocking schemes.
This unit is suitable for replacement, spare-parts stocking, and system expansion in substations where Relion REC650 bay control IEDs are already installed. Because REC650 order codes define application packages, communication options, I/O configuration, and firmware features, the full type code and application package must be verified against the installed device before procurement.

Note: Public sources confirm REC650 as an ABB Relion bay control IED with IEC 61850 and GOOSE interlocking capability. However, the exact application package, I/O count, auxiliary voltage, communication ports, and protection feature set for order code 1MRK008514-CB are not fully confirmed in open sources. Always verify the installed nameplate, application package, firmware version, and wiring before replacement.
Quality Control Process
Each REC650 unit is inspected for housing condition, front-panel HMI, terminal blocks, communication ports, mounting points, and nameplate data. Where test conditions allow, auxiliary power, LED indicators, HMI display, and communication interfaces are checked to confirm basic readiness. The unit is packed with anti-static and shock-resistant protection to prevent damage to terminals, connectors, and display components during transit.
Replacement Pitfall Guide
❗ Confirm the full order code. 1MRK008514-CB must match the original device. Other REC650 order codes may differ in application package, I/O configuration, communication options, or firmware.
❗ Verify the application package. REC650 can be configured for different bay types, such as single-busbar single-breaker or double-busbar single-breaker arrangements. The replacement unit must support the same bay configuration.
❗ Check communication protocol and version. IEC 61850, GOOSE, Modbus, or other protocol support depends on the specific variant. The replacement must match the existing substation communication design.
❗ Review interlocking and control logic. Bay interlocking, select-before-operate settings, and GOOSE signal mapping must be restored according to the original engineering data.
❗ Back up configuration before removal. Export settings, I/O mapping, communication parameters, and event records from PCM600 or the existing IED before replacement. Photograph terminal wiring, DIP/switch settings, and HMI status if applicable.
