 Zone Supervision in REB 670

Two new types of Diff Zone supervision are available

Id> traditional supervision of differential current level
with settable time delay(i.e. can be used as alarm or for
automatic reset of OCT condition)

Iin> incoming current supervision, without time delay

(i.e. can be used to trigger DR for external faults)

32
 Disconnector/CB supervision & alarming

For every disconnector/CB status is determined from the

status of aux contacts (i.e. a & b contacts)
Two schemes available depending on philosophy, a or b or both

Position of a disconnector/CB can be forced to OPEN or

CLOSED by a parameter setting
