REF615E_E HBFEAEAGABCCANC11E

Product Introduction

The ABB REF615E_E HBFEAEAGABCCANC11E represents the next evolution in ABB’s Relion® 615 series of feeder protection relays, designed for mission-critical power distribution applications. This specific configuration (HBFEAEAGABCCANC11E) features enhanced environmental tolerance and cybersecurity features for demanding industrial installations.

As an Intelligent Electronic Device (IED), the REF615E_E provides comprehensive protection for medium-voltage feeders (up to 40.5kV) with advanced directional overcurrent and earth fault protection elements. The relay’s extended temperature range (-40°C to +70°C) makes it particularly suitable for outdoor installations and harsh industrial environments where conventional protection relays might fail. Its modular firmware architecture allows for future functional expansions without hardware modifications.
