All existing protection, control and monitoring algorithms has been modelled and further improved according to the new IEC 61850 open standard into our Application Function Library. The IED 670 is based on our experienced REx5xx design utilizing the same modular and scalable I/O boards but with increased analogue input capability up to 24 currents/voltages. The state-of-art 600 MHz CPU allows higher functionality and still will process the algorithms from our common library even faster compared to today. All algorithms can be combined in basically any IED exactly according to your desired architecture and redundancy requirement. All IEDs can be provided with full control functionality and the fully graphical multi page / multi bay HMI. This unique functionality and flexibility provides reliable and efficient solutions for basically any protection, control and monitoring application in High Voltage Substations. We may proudly state that our complete and global know-how and experience now is available at the fingertips of the user. ABB has for the last twenty years been leading the development of digital protection and control. Communicating relays via SPA, numerical control via Ethernet and the function library concept in 216/316 series were all introduced in the 80ies and further developed with the 500 series and LON during the 90ies. Now we take the next step in this evolution. IED 670 is the first IED on the market, which is fully designed for the new IEC 61850 standard allowing an open structure with free allocations of functions instead of a locked hard ware box. This allows optimised design from fully integrated to fully decentralized solutions depending on your preferences and application.

ONE powerful and open IED for ALL applications

.....to give you

the magic IED!

With IED 670 you have the freedom of choice to design your protection & control solution exactly as you need. Our new range includes all products needed to efficiently design and operate your future proof Substation Automation System. The modular IED, the user friendly PCM and the informative MicroSCADA Pro. What differs ABB from other brands is that we are leaving the box. Instead of a large number of different hardware boxes, software and protocol converters to learn and maintain we are introducing ONE modular and open concept - independent of hardware, which is designed for and fully implement the new IEC 61850 open standard. In addition we fully support the present protocols such as SPA, LON and IEC 870-5-103 within the substation and a large number of additional remote protocols through MicroSCADA Pro or our Remote Terminal Units. We have additionally implemented IEC 61850 in REB 500 as well as COM581. Existing products such as REL 521/531 can be connected to IEC 61850 via a converter. IEC 61850 is also implemented for our distribution range of IEDs. Multiple end remote end data communication for C37.94 and G 703 is furthermore available in IED 670 for sampled values and transfer trip. For full details and continuous update on available products and solutions we refer to www.abb.com/substationautomation. You can also order our Product Buyers Guide on CD

A major

leap

In Grid Reliability

The main requirement =

Always operate correctly

G
Reliable Power Supply No chain is stronger than its weakest link. This truth is valid also for the power system. In order to ensure continuous power transmission each link has to be in operation. This means that the transmission lines and transformers have to be continuous available. Unavailability can be stated as MTTR/MTBF. MTBF = Mean Time Between Failure and MTTR = Mean Time To Repair. In short we need to minimize the probability of a fault and the time to restore operation. Faults will however always occur due to lightning strokes, pollution, ageing and other reasons. Therefore we need reliable and fast protection and control to clear the fault and restore operation. And equally important is not to cause an unnecessary interruption. IED 670 provides fast and reliable protection and control. This is what we mean with Always operate correctly. Reliability = Dependability + Security The IED shall operate correctly with dependable detection of all internal faults but at the same time be secure for external faults and during normal operating conditions without any false operation. In a similar way the IED shall guarantee dependable and secure control including interlocking, auto-re-closing and efficient information handling to minimize the effect of any disturbance. Duplicated protection, local or remote back-up can be used to improve the dependability. What is important is to select and co-ordinate the protection for the overall availability for the complete power system. The fault clearing chain The IED is an integral part of the fault clearing chain. The IED requires information about currents and voltages during load and fault conditions. It should however operate correctly even at distorted signals due to CT transients, CT saturation or extremely low values. If a breaker fail to operate, the IED shall provide reliable breaker failure protection but at the same time be stable for remaining flux current. Finally certain line protection and remote tripping capability as well as substation automation require reliable communication. IED 670 is designed to always operate correctly IED 670 is designed to operate correctly during current transformer saturation and current voltage transformer transients and includes an advanced breaker failure algorithm for multiple breakers. It can furthermore handle multiple sets of three phase current transformers for improved security. Finally the adaptive communication can handle route switching as well as GPS interruption.

Optimizing Dependability and Security In order to optimize dependability AND security for maximum grid reliability it is necessary to design, select, test and verify the protection and control IED for each type of fault, each type of application, all source-to-line ratios, different instrument transformers and operating conditions. The IED is NOT an island. The IED is an integral part of the power system. This means we need to fully know and understand the power system i.e. the complete chain. Dependability = Speed + Sensitivity Dependability requires to optimize speed AND sensitivity for ALL faults. High speed is especially important for busbar and transformer protection to limit damages from high current faults. High sensitivity is important for transmission line protection since the majority of the faults are single phase-to-earth faults with moderate fault current due to high fault resistance and/or weak-end infeed. Built in power system know-how Well proven algorithms State-of-the-art IED Maximum reliability

Security = Selectivity + Stability Security requires to optimize selectivity AND stability for ALL objects. Differential current measurement used for bus, transformer and line differential protection will during ideal conditions provide absolute selectivity. But a false operation can give a big disturbance. High stability for through going currents, CT-saturation and inrush currents is therefore mandatory especially for bus, breaker failure and transformer protection. Phase selectivity and stability for load and power swings is essential for transmission line protection. ABB power system competence ABB is the worlds leading supplier in Power Technology for Transmission and Distribution. This means we have a wide competence with deep knowhow and global experience for all major parts in the power grid from power transformers and circuit breakers to instrument transformers and substation automation. In addition we are the leading supplier of advanced system solutions for HVAC and HVDC. The design of IED 670 is based on this unique competence and further verified in advanced simulator studies and global experience for ALL types of applications and conditions. That is why we proudly state that IED 670 is a major leap in grid reliability.

IED 670 = Perfecting

your selectivity plan

With the state-of-the art IED 670 you have a unique solution provider to design and adjust the protection & control solution to exactly meet your application and requirement. All necessary protection, monitoring and control algorithms are available in our common Application Function Library. IED 670 is ensuring both maximum dependability and security. This means to provide fast and sensitive detection of ALL faults independent of type and location but at the same time ensure selectivity and stability for external faults, load, and transients. Accuracy and speed are often contradictory and all design requires a balance between the two requirements. However the IED 670 high performance CPU enables both faster and more accurate execution of the algorithms. As an example REL 670 and RET 670 is faster compared to REL 521 and RET 521. Damaging bus or transformer faults with high fault current can be detected in less than half a cycle with RET 670 and REB 670 with maintained stability for transients and CTsaturation. Constant operating time independent of source to line ratio and for all fault locations together with reliable phase selection independent of load is the main requirement for the line protection. Single phase faults on heavily loaded transmission lines, parallel lines, multi terminal lines, weak end infeed and high fault resistance can be correctly tripped and re-closed by REL 670 and RED 670. Close in line faults can be detected in cycle with the high speed over current function. Our well proven algorithms have been further improved to operate correctly even during CT saturation and CVT transients. With up to 24 analog inputs you can connect the transformer and line protection to both sets of CTs which are used for breaker-and-a-half, ring or double breaker switchgear allowing high sensitivity and stability.

Perfecting the Kirchhoff Law The well known Kirchhoff law is the base for all differential protection and has many advantages. The well proven algorithms in RET 316/RET 521 and REB 100/RED 521 have been further improved to ensure both high speed operation, typically to cycle and full stability for CT saturation and inrush currents. This unique dependability and security of RET 670 and REB 670 will give you a valuable insurance of your substation. We dare to state that this is the most high performing and reliable IED for busbars and transformers available today. In addition you can add other functions such as breaker failure protection from the library. RET 670 can handle 6 sets of three phase current restraint, e.g. a three winding power transformer with double breaker arrangement for each winding. RET 670 can be further extended with additional high impedance and restricted earth fault differential protection to give even faster and more sensitive protection of auto transformers, reactors and primary windings. RET 670 can cover several objects and several functions integrated in the same IED, e.g. line, bus, transformer and feeders. This makes RET 670 ideal for small substation applications since also the control functionality can be integrated. RED 670 is the further development of REL 551/561 line differential protection extended to 6 sets of three phase current restraint, e.g. up to five line ends and two breaker application in one end. It operate correctly for route switching and shorter GPS interruptions. Additional back up functions e.g. over current protection or distance protection can be added. Perfecting Ohms Law All impedance measuring relays are based on Ohms Law by measuring Z = U/I. Accurate impedance measurement depends both on the CT and VT response as well as the source to line ratio. Capacitive Voltage Transformers are common in High Voltage systems and can generate errors. REL 670 has further developed the full scheme distance measurement from the REL 5xx series. This has resulted in even shorter and constant operating time including CVT applications and high source-to-line ratios. The phase selection has been further improved with an advanced load enchroachment characteristic. This unique dependability and security of REL 670 can be further improved with additional functions such as a four step directional phase and earth protection as well as the General Function (current/voltage) protection which can be customized for rapid single phase detection of very high resistance earth faults. The high speed overcurrent function can be applied for close in and heavy current faults and a four step overcurrent protection can be used as backup during at a fuse failure or loss of measuring voltage.

Back-up
protection functions
A number of current and voltage based back-up functions can be integrated. This includes one (or several) four step directional earth fault protection schemes with a permissive overreaching transfer trip (POTT) for directional comparison of high resistance earth faults. In a similar way it is possible to integrate one (or several) four step directional or un-directional over current protection. Furthermore high speed phase and earth over current protection can be added for close-in heavy current faults. Adaptive breaker failure protection for one, two or six breakers can be added depending on IED. Several over/under voltage and over/under frequency functions can be used for load shedding and other functions. Over excitation and rate-of-change frequency protection makes IED 670 the complete solution provider for ALL your applications. Finally a unique Customizer consisting of a flexible general current and voltage protection for symmetrical components be tailored for special functions and specific applications.

Control & Monitoring functions
The complete IED 670 family has an outstanding functionality for monitoring, measurement, event and disturbance recording for up to 30+10 externaly and internaly derived analog channels per IED. The same IED can be connected to the protection and measuring cores of the instrument transformers at the same time. REC 670 is available as bay control for different switchgear arrangements including breaker-and-a-half stations. Control functionality is however available as option for the complete IED 670 range except REB 670. This allows either a distributed approach with a dedicated REC 670 controller for one or several bays or an integrated approach with combined control and back-up protection up to a fully integrated protection and control IED.

Communication functions
IED 670 is designed to communicate. This includes the necessary remote communication for the protection schemes and the bay/station level communication for control and interlocking as well as remote communication to SMS and/or SCADA. IED 670 is designed for IEC 61850 open communication and TCP/IP but can also support SPA, LON and IEC 80870-5-103 in up to 4 parallel channels as shown in the below table. Communication is essential for the overall reliability. And communication signals can be distorted when exposed to the severe disturbance environment in a substation. This is why disturbance free OPTICAL communication is built into the design of IED 670 minimizing the risk for communication errors. IED 670 is verified for IEC 61850. But in addition IED 670 together with other ABB and non-ABB IEDs has been comprehensively tested in our unique ABB IEC 61850 System Verification Center.

REB 670-A20 REB 670-A31 REB 670-B20 REB 670-B21 REB 670-B31

The current differential function in RED 670 is utilizing the sampled current values from up to four remote ends in addition to one/two local ends in order to perform the 6x3 current differential evaluation. This means that all analog sampled current values are continuous communicated to all line ends together with the possible trip signals in each phase. Since the disturbance recorder in each IED 670 can handle 40 analog channels and 96 digital channels it is possible to analyze information from all line ends in one IED. You can create your own disturbance report the way you want and send your file as an e-mail. In addition a binary signal transfer to each remote end of eight signals is possible. E.g for transfer trip from a breaker failure protection or other binary signals. If no analog values are needed it is possible to transfer 6x32 binary signals to the the remote ends. The right information to the right person at the right time.

Easy to handle
Built in HMI Direct interaction without any tools
The local HMI of the IEDs gives you a quick yet detailed overview of the process with setting and control capabilities in any situation. The user-friendly navigation structure of the HMI allows you to access desired function or important data, such as event and disturbance information as well as settings fast and easy. With the large HMI you can control and visualize locally up to 30 primary apparatuses. Measured service values are displayed and fault values from the two latest disturbances will be shown. You can easily draw the single line diagram to be displayed on the the HMI corresponding to your switchgear arrangement by using the Graphical Display Editor of the PCM600 tool. The symbols needed are available in a library according to both IEC and ANSI standards. Up to six different pages for up to six switchgear bays are available. This mean that the built in HMI can replace the need for a substation computer.

Protection and Control IED Manager

PCM 600 the optimum user tool

The easy-to-use software tool, Protection and Control IED Manager PCM 600, provides all required functionality throughout the life cycle of the IED670 as well as selected older products. This includes parameter setting, configuration, on-line monitoring and event viewing during engineering, commissioning, operation, testing and maintenance. It also provides you with an efficient tool for disturbance evaluation and function analysis after primary system faults. With PCM 600 you can easily create application specific configurations by combining function blocks, logical elements, timers, etc. in the IED. The new tool also includes graphical display editor for creating single line diagrams for the local HMI. The built in Signal Matrix Tool supports efficient configuration of the analog and digital I/O signals for fast adaptation to your primary circuits. The advanced PCM 600 tool paves the way for a new era of disturbance handling. Through automatic detection and reporting of disturbances it allows fast and efficient analysis of complex disturbances analysis instead of data manipulation. Up to 40 analog channels and 96 digital can be included per IED. As an example this makes it possible to analyze all line ends simultaneously from a multiterminal application in each location of RED 670. PCM 600 fully supports the new IEC 61850 standard in terms of GOOSE messaging, engineering and information management. PCM 600 includes both the CAP IEC 611313 and the CCT IEC 61850-8 functionality which means a complete IED Capability Description (ICD) and Substation Configuration Description (SCD) will be generated. PCM 600 can be run from a standard PC connected to the front or via fast and reliable TCP/IP communication on LAN or WAN, which enables quick up- and downloading of settings and configurations to the IEDs, and upload of dozens of disturbance files from the IEDs in just a few seconds. PCM 600 can also be used together with CAP540 for modem or PC to PC connections for remote communication to IED 670 and older products via SPA.

Transmission

Lines & Cables

REL & RED 670 Line IED
REL 670 Line distance protection
REL 670 is used for the protection, control and monitoring of overhead lines and cables in transmission and sub-transmission networks. Its excellent phase selection and load enchroachment makes it ideal for heavily loaded and/or parallel lines where the requirement for tripping is one, two-, and/or three pole. Autoreclosing, synchrocheck , breaker failure protection and bay control can be included for 1 or 2 breakers. The IED is also suitable as back-up protection of power transformers, reactors etc. The well proven full scheme distance protection with quadrilateral characteristics provides the main protection function in REL 670. The five zones have fully independent measuring and setting for phase-to-earth as well phase-to-phase loops which allows optimized protection for all types of lines and applications. Speed and accuracy has been significantly improved compared to REL 316 and REL 5xx series. Additional high speed instantaneous phase and earth overcurrent can be used for close in faults and a separate four step phase and earth over current protection can be used as back up. Complete scheme communication logic is available both for distance and directional earth fault as well as transfer trip. Remote communication based on the IEEE C37.94 standard can be redundant when required for important installations. Route switching and short GPS failure will be compensated. Charging current compensation allows high sensitivity also on long overhead lines and cables. A four step overcurrent or full scheme distance protection is optional in RED 670 as back-up for remote end or communication failures. The following 64 kbit communication alternatives are available:
1. Telecommunication systems with specified route switching using echo timing. Typical distances < 200 km (< 300 km state of the art) Telecommunication systems with unspecified route switching using GPS satellite timing (Echo timing as fall back system) Typical distances < 200 km (< 300 km state of the art) Back- to back communication, typical distances < 2 or 3 km multimode, < 80 or 150 km single mode (According to the optical budget)

3.

Redundant Line Protection

The possibility to include redundant algorithms in one IED (e.g. differential and distance or distance and directional phase and earth over current) will improve the performance both for single (with remote back-up) and duplicated protection arrangement (Local back-up). Still the combination REL 670 and RED 670 will give an optimum redundant scheme. If totally separate hardware is required for the two redundant schemes REL 670 or RED 670 can be combined with REL521 or REL531. Finally the IED 670 concept makes it possible to include a back-up line distance protection in RET 670. By utilization of the 24 analog inputs it is possible to include the protection for two objects in one IED but with separate test switches. This give the possibility to reduce the number of IEDs but with remaining functionality and redundancy.

RED 670 Line differential protection

RED 670 is used for the protection, control and monitoring of overhead lines and cables in in transmission and sub-transmission networks. It is suitable for the protection of heavily loaded lines and multiterminal lines where the requirement for tripping is one-, two-, and/or three pole. RED 670 is also suitable for protection of cable feeders to generator block transformers. The phase segregated current differential protection provides an excellent sensitivity for high resistive faults and gives a secure phase selection. The availability of six stabilized current inputs allows use on multi-breaker arrangements in three terminal applications or up to five line ends applications with single breaker arrangements and one double breaker.

Transformer and

substations
RET 670 Transformer IED
RET 670 provides fast and selective protection, monitoring and control for two- and three-winding transformers, autotransformers, generator-transformer units, phase shifting transformers, special railway transformers and shunt reactors. RET 670 is designed to operate correctly over a wide frequency range in order to accommodate power system frequency variations during disturbances and generator start-up and shut-down. A very fast differential protection function, with automatic CT ratio matching and vector group compensation, makes this IED the ideal solution even for the most demanding applications. RET 670 has very low requirements on the main CTs, no interposing CTs are required. It is suitable for differential applications with multi-breaker arrangements due to up to six restraint CT inputs which gives increased through fault stability. The differential protection function is provided with 2nd harmonic and wave-block restraint features to avoid tripping for magnetizing inrush, and 5th harmonic restraint to avoid tripping for over excitation. The differential function offers a high sensitivity for lowlevel internal faults. RET 670's unique and innovative sensitive differential protection feature, based on wellknown theory of symmetrical components provide best possible coverage for winding internal turn-to-turn faults. A low impedance restricted earth-fault protection function is available as complimentary sensitive and fast main protection at earth faults. This function includes a directional zero-sequence current criterion for additional security. Alternatively a high impedance differential function is available. It can be used as restricted earth fault or, as three functions are included, also as differential protection on autotransformers, as differential protection for a tertiary connected reactor, as T-differential protection for the transformer feeder in a mesh-corner or ring arrangement, as tertiary bus protection etc. Distance protection functionality for phase to phase and/or phase to earth faults is available as back-up protection for faults within the transformer and in the connected power system. Versatile phase, earth, positive,
20

negative and zero sequence over current functions, which can optionally be made directional and/or voltage controlled, provide further alternative backup protection. Thermal overload, volts per hertz, over/under voltage and over/under frequency protection functions are also available. RET 670 Substation IED RET 670 can include both protection, monitoring and control for several objects. This includes transformer differential protection, high impedance differential protection, distance protection and up to 3 pcs phase & earth overcurrent protection. Control with 6 separate HMI pages and 6 breaker failure protection can furthermore be included. REC 670 can handle up to 6 breakers with control, breaker failure protection and phase & earth overcurrent protection. This means that smaller substations can be designed with one IED per breaker but with full n-1 redundancy meaning that one IED may fail and the station is still fully protected by the other IEDs.

Bus and

breakers
REB 670 Bus and breaker failure protection
REB 670 is based on the well proven ultra high speed algorithm from RADSS, REB 100 and RED 521. This ensures both speed, sensitivity and reliability. REB 670 is designed for the selective, reliable and fast differential protection of busbars, T-connections, meshed corners, generators and autotransformers. REB 670 can be used for different switchgear layouts, including single and double busbar with or without transfer bus, double circuit breaker or one-and-half circuit breaker stations. The IED can detect all types of internal phase-to-phase and phaseto-earth faults in solidly earthed or low impedance earthed power systems, as well as all internal multi-phase faults in isolated or high-impedance earthed power systems. REB 670 has very low requirements on the main current transformers and no interposing current transformers are necessary. For all applications, it is possible to include and mix main CTs with 1A and 5A rated secondary current within the same protection zone. Typically, CTs with up to 10:1 ratio difference can be used within the same differential protection zone. Adjustment for different main CT ratios is achieved numerically by a parameter setting. The numerical, low-impedance differential protection function is designed for fast and selective protection for faults within protected zone. All connected CT inputs are provided with a restraint feature. The fast tripping time of the low-impedance differential protection function is especially advantages for power system networks with high fault levels or where fast fault clearance is required for power system stability. The advanced open CT detection algorithm detects instantly the open CT secondary circuits and prevents differential protection operation without a need of an additional check zone. Integrated overall check zone feature, independent from any disconnector position, is however available. It can be used in double busbar stations to secure stability of the busbar differential protection in case of entirely wrong status indication of busbar disconnector in any of the feeder bays. Advanced Zone Selection logic accompanied by optionally available end-fault and/or circuit breaker failure protections ensure minimum possible tripping time and selectivity for faults within the blind spot or the end zone between main CT and affiliated circuit breaker. Therefore REB 670 offers best possible coverage for such faults in feeder and bussection/bus-coupler bays. It is normal practice to have just one set of busbar protection relays per busbar. Nevertheless some utilities do apply two independent busbar protection relays per zone of protection. REB 670 fits both solutions. A simplified bus differential protection for multi-phase faults and earth faults can be obtained by using a single, one-phase REB 670 terminal with external auxiliary summation current transformers. Co-ordination with other objects RET 670 includes both low impedance and high impedance differential functions which can be applied to protect transformers, reactors, generators, T applications and Hstations. For certain applications this means that either REB 670 or RET 670 can be used. REB 670 can furthermore include four step overcurrent protections and breaker failure protections for up to eight bays. This means that REB 670 can be used as back up protection for outgoing feeders. Finally the breaker failure function (BFR) can be integrated in REB, RET, RED, REL or REC according to customer preference. REB 500 Distributed Busbar Protection If a distributed busbar protection is preferred ABB can offer the well proven REB 500 together with the IED 670 family. REB 500 can handle up to 60 feeders and a total of 32 busbar zones. REB 500 has been further developed to support IEC 61850 and can be delivered with two Ethernet ports, one for 61850 to a Substation Automation System and one TCP/IP port for connection to LAN/WAN for remote comm-unication. As an alternative REB 500 can support LON and IEC 870-5-103.

Future proof
concept
REC 670 Bay control
REC 670 is used for the control, protection and monitoring of different types of bays in power networks. REC 670 is especially suitable for applications in distributed control systems with high demands on reliability. REC 670 can be calibrated to typical 0.25 % measuring accuracy and can be connected to both measuring cores and protection cores. REC 670 is fully designed for IEC 61850 but also supports LON. The control is performed from remote (SCADA/Station) through the communication bus or locally from a graphical HMI on the front of the IED showing the single line diagram. Up to six HMI pages for different bays can be used. Different control configurations can be implemented e.g. one control IED can be used per bay or one IED can be common for several bays. Interlocking modules are available for all common types of switchgear arrangements. The control is based on the select-before execute principle to give highest possible reliability. A synchrocheck function is available to interlock breaker closing. A number of protection functions are available for flexibility in use for different station types and busbar arrangements. This includes phase-and-earth overcurrent protection, breaker failure protection and autoreclosing for a complete breaker and-a-half diameter or for up to six separate feeders. Integrated Protection and Control IED 670 is designed and mapped for the open IEC 61850 standard as a hard ware independent concept. The IED 670 family therefore allows the distribution of protection functionality to REC 670 and of control functionality to REL, RED and RET. This gives a unique flexibility to design optimized solutions. But it also give the possibility to reconfigure, update and even move functionality between different IEDs at a later stage when the substation is extended or modified. Migration into the future IED 670 is designed for IEC 61850 and is prepared for the full functionality from process bus to stations bus. IED 670 provides free allocation of functions to any IED. This offers a unique opportunity to invest in an open and future proof solution. Instead of raw data flow of Megabites IEC 61850 offers an Integrated Information Management. IEC 61850 has besides interoperability and self description a much higher functionality compared conventional SCADA protocols. It can therefore be foreseen that IEC 61850 is the first step to a seamless architecture from the process bus all the way up to the Network Control Center. Finally IED 670 is prepared for the next step in the evolution with the possibility with additional ports for IEC 61850-9-2 process bus. That is why IED 670 is fully designed for IEC 61850 and NOT an after thought with only protocol conversion.

Future proof migration

The well-known Moors law which predicts a fast development of micro processor capacity is still valid. The technical and economical life for a CPU or a PC as well as the available communication speed is in the range of 5 years while the algorithms and I/O has a much longer life. So how can a utility then standardize without the costly and time consuming procedure to verify, engineer and maintain different product generations? The CPU in IED 670 has a higher functionality compared to existing equivalent IEDs from the 316 or 500 series for transmission applications. Since 670 is based on the same well proven algorithms and the same modular I/O as the 500-series, IED 670 we can therefore provide a direct migration for most applications. The same instrument transformers, the same I/O interface, the same algorithms and the same protection schemes can be used as before. But at the same time IED 670 gives a state-ofthe-art CPU and communication. This is the first step in a future proof migration since the hard ware independent functional library of IED 670 together with IEC 61850 will allow future step-by-step modifications, up-grades and extensions.

Pre-configured & customized IED 670 The first option is to chose a pre-configured variant specified in the Buyers Guide. If an identical functionality and I/O to a specified 316 or 500 series IED variant is required it is possible to create a customized IED from the open options of REL, RET, RED and REC. Since IED 670 has a higher functionality compared to other vendor products on the market it is naturally also possible to configure a one-to-one replacement of third party products. When to use 670/316/500 series Since IED 670 can provide a number of different protection algorithms and also distribute functions to different IEDs it is possible to optimize both reliability and cost. IED 670 therefore can provide both main and back-up protection but with different algorithms. If a completely different hardware and software design is required between main and back-up protection we can still offer our present ABB IED range. Selected products are available with IEC 61850 converter. Specific applications such as distributed busbar protection (REB 500), High Speed Bus Transfer (REC 316), railway protection (REO 517) and Phasor Measurement Units (RES 521) as well as generator protection (REG 216 and REG 316) are not covered in this release of IED 670.

Application and new Solutions
The IED 670 future proof concept offers many new possibilities to design more efficient protection and control systems. As an example we use a breaker-and-ahalf substation. This requires line, transformer, bus, Tconnection and breaker failure protection as well as autoreclosing, synchro check, disturbance recorder and bay control. With a conventional box approach we need up to fifteen boxes. With a functional approach we can achieve the same performance with only five IED 670. Other examples is protection and control of up to six bays with one IED and integrated solutions for a complete Hstations. Our experienced application engineers are available to discuss suitable migration strategies and propose efficient solutions. With our advanced RTDS simulator and EMTP models as well as COMTRADE recordings we can together with our customers evaluate and verify different applications. Commissioning and Maintenance The pre-configured and pre-set variants of IED 670 provides easy and fast commissioning. The advanced self supervision, disturbance recording and communication minimize the need for secondary injection testing. Still each IED 670 can be equipped for the well proven Combitest. The test switch RTXP 24 is used to make it possible to test a IED in a fail-safe way. It is even possible to include two separate test switches for a multifunction IED 670. Inserting the test-plug handle RTXH 24 into the test switch automatically makes all preparations for a secure secondary injection test in proper sequence. One example of test set is OMICRON which can communicate with IED 670 over IEC 61850 GOOSE messages.
