Web HMI
The web HMI enables the user to access the RER620 via a web
browser. This method of connecting to the RER620 requires
no additional software and can connect locally by connecting
a computer to the RER620 via the front communication port
or remotely over LAN/WAN. With a menu tree structure similar
to the one on the local HMI, the user does not need to spend
time relearning where every setting is located. With this useful
tool, the user has a quick means for programming most of the
recloser settings.

Protection functions
The RER620 IED offers the most extensive and adaptive set of
protective functions in the industry.
High Impedance (HIZ) fault detection
High impedance faults have small current magnitudes that are
difficult to detect by standard protection. While small fault currents do not pose danger to power equipment, a high impedance fault poses a deadly threat to humans and animals.
How has ABB addressed HIZ?
7 years of dedicated research and extensive field tests to
develop best solution
Created HIZ (PHIZ1) function in protection schemes
Utilize ground/earth fault current signatures in HIZ algorithm
Embedded In-rush energy detection
In situations where distributed generation is first connected to
a main network, there is a large current pull from transformers,
which will cause a relay to trip the recloser on the line. The
traditional solution is to use communication to inform the relay
of the situation and prevent the trip. With the RER620, there is
no need for communication because of the embedded In-rush
energy detection.
