ABB RED670 Module 2.1

ABB RED670 Module is an advanced distance protection and control solution for high‑ and medium‑voltage overhead lines and cables. Built for fast, selective fault clearance and secure grid operation, it combines precise protection algorithms with comprehensive control, monitoring, and communications to support modern substation automation.

Key capabilities:

• Multi‑zone distance protection for phase‑to‑phase and phase‑to‑ground faults with directional elements and quadrilateral characteristics
• Power swing blocking and out‑of‑step tripping to maintain system stability
• Automatic reclosing (single‑ and three‑pole), synchrocheck, switch‑on‑to‑fault, and breaker failure protection
• Pilot protection schemes (permissive/blocking/direct transfer trip) with teleprotection interfaces
• Accurate fault location plus extensive event, disturbance, and oscillography recording
• Flexible configurable logic and I/O, engineered via PCM600
• Substation communications using IEC 61850 with GOOSE messaging; additional protocols and process‑bus options available depending on device variant
• Role‑based access and audit trails to support cybersecurity best practices (feature set depends on firmware)

Typical use cases include transmission and sub‑transmission lines, including applications with series compensation. The module’s high speed, dependability, and interoperability help improve protection performance, simplify integration, and reduce downtime.

Note: Feature availability may vary by configuration and firmware version.
