Product Description

ABB TRANSFORMER PROTECTION AND CONTROL RET620 IEC NUMERICAL RELAY

COMPACT PROTECTION AND CONTROL WITH VOLTAGE REGULATION FOR TWO-WINDING POWER TRANSFORMERS

RET620 is a dedicated transformer management relay for the protection, control, measurement and supervision of both power and step-up transformers, including power generator-transformer blocks, in utility and industrial power distribution systems. RET620 is also ideal for voltage regulation.

Compact and versatile two-winding power transformer protection relay with integration of protection, control, monitoring and supervision in one relay.
