Feeder Protection Relay REX 521

Product Guide
 Feeder Protection Relay
General The protection relay REX 521 is designed for
protection, control, measuring, and supervi-
sion in medium voltage networks. Typical
applications include incoming and outgoing
feeders as well as substation protection. The
Design The protection relay is based on a multipro-
cessor environment. The human-machine
interface (HMI)1 including an LCD display
with different views makes the local use easy
1. HMI is referred to as MMI in the relay and in the
Relay Setting Tool.

Issued: 20.11.2001
Status: Updated
Version: F/15.02.2006
Data subject to change without notice
protection relay is provided with energizing
inputs for conventional current and voltage
transformers. Also a hardware version with
inputs for current and voltage sensors is
available.
and informs the user via indication messages.
Modern technology is applied both in hard-
ware and software solutions.
The protection relay is part of the ABB Sub-
station Automation system and extends the
functionality and flexibility of the concept
further.

Applications Several standard configurations are available
for the protection relay. Refer to the REX 521
“Technical Reference Manual, Standard Con-
figurations” for more detailed information.
The B01 standard configuration for REX 521
is designed to be used in single busbar sys-
tems using one circuit breaker for selective
short-circuit, time overcurrent and earth-fault
protection of radial isolated neutral networks,

networks and resonant earthed networks.
The B02 standard configuration is designed
to be used in single busbar systems using one
circuit-breaker for selective short-circuit pro-
tection, time-overcurrent protection, earth-
fault protection and automatic reclosing. The
configuration can be used in different types of
networks such as radial isolated neutral net-
works, solidly earthed networks, resistant
earthed networks and resonant earthed net-
works.

The H05 standard configuration is designed
to be used in single busbar systems using one
circuit-breaker for selective non-directional
short-circuit protection, non-directional time-
overcurrent protection, non-directional earth-
fault protection, overvoltage protection, und-
ervoltage protection, residual overvoltage
protection and thermal overload protection
for devices.
The H06 standard configuration is designed
to be used in single busbar systems using one
circuit-breaker for selective non-directional
short-circuit protection, non-directional time-
overcurrent protection, overvoltage protec-
tion, undervoltage protection, residual over-
voltage protection, underfrequency protection
and overfrequency protection.
The H07 standard configuration is designed
for protection of large or medium-size three-
phase AC motors in circuit-breaker controlled
motor drives. Due to the large number of pro-
tective functions integrated, the relay pro-
vides a complete protection against motor
damage caused by electrical faults. The H07
configuration can also be applied to other
objects needing thermal overload protection,
such as power transformers. It can also be
used in applications requiring overcurrent
protection, under or overvoltage protection
and/or directional or non-directional earth-
fault protection.
The H08 standard configuration is designed
to be used in single busbar systems using one
circuit-breaker for selective non-directional
short-circuit protection, non-directional time-
overcurrent protection, non-directional earth-
fault protection, overvoltage protection, und-
ervoltage protection, residual overvoltage
protection and thermal overload protection
for devices. The protection is based on phase-

voltages are available in the measurement
view.
The H09 standard configuration for REX 521
is designed to be used in single busbar sys-
tems using one circuit breaker for selective
non-directional short-circuit protection, non-
directional time-overcurrent protection, non-
directional earth-fault protection, overvolt-
age protection, undervoltage protection,
residual overvoltage protection, underfre-
quency protection, overfrequency protection
and automatic reclosing.
The H50 standard configuration for REX 521
is designed to be used in single busbar sys-
tems by using one circuit breaker for selective
non-directional short-circuit protection,
directional and non-directional time-overcur-
rent protection, directional and/or non-direc-
tional earth-fault protection, overvoltage

protection, undervoltage protection, residual
overvoltage protection, underfrequency pro-
tection, over-frequency protection and auto-
matic reclosing.
The H51 standard configuration for REX 521
is designed for protection of large or medium-
size three-phase AC motors in circuit breaker
controlled motor drives. Due to the large
number of protective functions integrated, the
relay provides a complete protection against
motor damage caused by electrical faults.
The H51 configuration can be applied to
other objects that need the thermal overload
protection (such as power transformers). It
can also be used in applications requiring
overcurrent protection, directional overcur-
rent protection, under/overvoltage protec-
tion, directional or non-directional earth-fault
protection, underfrequency protection and/or
overfrequency protection.
