RED615Description

RED615 is a phase-segregated two-end line differential protection and control IED designed for utility and industrial power systems, including looped and meshed distribution networks with or without decentralized power generation



RED615Grounds for using line differential protection

RED615Difficult to separate fault conditions from normal load conditions

Load current magnitudes close to fault current levels

RED615Difficult to find protection settings that would suit all cases

Varying fault current levels

RED615Protection co-ordination based on definite or inverse time delay might result in too long accumulated time delays within the chain of protection devices

Protection co-ordination

RED615Selective protection scheme still required
