HCEP insulating material The pole insulating material is Hydrophobic Cycloaliphatic Epoxy (HCEP). the next generation of Cycloaliphatic Epoxy (CEP). Hydrophobicity provides water resistance, preventing water from developing completely wetted, resistively conductive surfaces on outdoor insulation. As a result, leakage currents are reduced which increases reliability by minimizing the risk of insulation flashover. Furthermore, reducing discharge activity translates into decreased insulator erosion and increased insulator life expectancy. Advantages Improved water beading and runoff Lower leakage currents and less discharge activity Reduced flash-over probability Less erosion of insulation Improved performance in heavily polluted areas Improved weatherability and outdoor aging Prolonged life expectancy Exceptional mechanical strength attributed to epoxybased design Contamination performance Determined by creepage/leakage distance available on a recloser bushing (pole), contamination performance is a very important factor when considering the reclosers operating environment. ABB uses the HCEP insulation to not only offer a product that far exceeds the creep required by ANSI standards, but also to produce results that go beyond IEC Level IV requirements for environments with very heavy pollution.

HCEP does not become resistively conductive when exposed to moisture

Protection functions The RER620 IED offers the most extensive and adaptive set of protective functions in the industry. High Impedance (HIZ) fault detection High impedance faults have small current magnitudes that are difficult to detect by standard protection. While small fault currents do not pose danger to power equipment, a high impedance fault poses a deadly threat to humans and animals. How has ABB addressed HIZ? 7 years of dedicated research and extensive field tests to develop best solution Created HIZ (PHIZ1) function in protection schemes Utilize ground/earth fault current signatures in HIZ algorithm Embedded In-rush energy detection In situations where distributed generation is first connected to a main network, there is a large current pull from transformers, which will cause a relay to trip the recloser on the line. The traditional solution is to use communication to inform the relay of the situation and prevent the trip. With the RER620, there is no need for communication because of the embedded In-rush energy detection.

1. A separate power source, 120/240VAC, is needed for the heater if input voltage is DC. If other power supply required, please contact ABB sales representative. 2. SNTP is available for time-sync with all Ethernet options. IRIG-B is available for time-sync with all RS-485 options. 3. 00 for Standard - Style numbering will change for specials & dynamic accessories. Note: When selecting ANSI faceplating, IEC61850, DNP3.0 Level 2 and Modbus communication protocols are automatically selected for the RER620. An IEC faceplate selection will result in a selection for IEC61850 IEC101 and IEC104 communication protocols for the RER620.

Accessories

Recloser simulator assembly Test relay schemes or verify your protection settings with an ABB Recloser Simulator Card without having the high voltage unit connected to it. This is ideal for protection engineers to verify the relay performance at their convenience. Easy, cost effective method for testing relay schemes and the operational health of an RER620, without operating the recloser Simulate fault conditions inject secondary currents up to 1 A (to simulate primary currents up to 600 A) Software can collect oscillographic records of fault simulations Comes with wiring harness and power adapter for RER620 Compatible with PCM600 software

Flexitest switch Perform secondary current and voltage injection directly into the RER620 (ABB FT-1 option allows easy access for testing using secondary current injection and voltage with virtually any type of test equipment) Use the FT-1 to test the health of the recloser PTs and CTs No need to disconnect the 24 pin cable or phoenix plugs Use the FT-1 to test the GridShield contacts and programmable I/O Transfer switch Quickly transfer control power between the load and source sides of a GridShield recloser. Potential transformers (PTs) must be connected on both the load and source sides of a GridShield recloser.

Additional ABB devices Designed for improved reliability and feeder performance

Single phase by-pass switch Provides a means for bypassing and disconnecting reclosers or voltage regulators, allowing maintenance on equipment without service interruption Porcelain or silicone insulators Mounting configurations: vertical, underhung, pole mount, or crossarm Available ratings: 15-38 kV 600/900 A 40 kA Momentary rating 110-150 kV BIL AutoLink single-phase electronic sectionalizer Works as sectionalizer in conjunction with an upstream recloser or circuit breaker Prevents unnecessary supply outages Reduces replacement of fuses Both actuating current and count can be reset as many times as needed, making it unmatched in the industry Detects inrush current Compatible with ABB, S&C and AB Chance interchangeable cutout bodies Ideal for lateral feeders

COM600 The station automation device of ABB, COM600 is an all-inone communication gateway, providing connectivity between substation IEDs and network-level control and management systems. Additionally it is capable of automatic fault isolation and restoration. The COM600 adds distributed intelligence to the feeders, and it is ideal for automation of rural lines or whenever the user has SCADA IDMS limitations. It is a total configurable solution capable of providing all logic for fault detection isolation and restoration.
