Complete portfolio offering in all ranges

Outdoor MV Instrument Transformers
The family of outdoor instrument transformers are cast in hydrophobic cycloaliphatic epoxy resin (HCEP),
capable of withstanding outdoor environmental conditions. The HCEP material offers superior arc track,
ozone, and ultraviolet-resistive properties while maintaining physical strength. The hydrophobic surface
properties of HCEP ensure highly reliable performance in wet or humid environments.
ABB has in its offer ITs dedicated to different applications for voltage levels up to 40.5 kV:
KON-24 FR v02: The KON-24 outdoor current transformer is used for
metering and relaying on outdoor 24 kV circuits.

Substations: CT type TPO, single pole VT

type TJO and double pole VT type TDO.

KON 24 I2Cv02: The KON-24 I2C outdoor current transformers are

used for metering and relaying on circuits up to 24 kV. It isdesigned
as single-or-multiple turn transformers, with one transformer ratio
and, if necessary, with the possibility to change over on the primary or
secondary side.

Pole mounted: CT type KON, single pole

VT type VOG and double pole VT type
VOL.

VOG-FR v01: The VOG-24 are outdoor single-pole voltage

transformers. It is made of resin insulation and is designed for networks
up to 24 kV.

Special CTs: KOKU G dedicated to LBS

SECTOS, KOHU dedicated to LBS NPS 24,
IMT dedicated to LV bushings of distribution
transformers (for balance measurement).

VOL-24 FR v01: The VOL-24 outdoor double-pole insulated voltage

transformer is used for metering line-to-line circuits. It is made of resin
insulation and is designed for networks up to 24 kV.

& control
solutions

A flexible substation automation device that provides localized

automation tasks, The COM600 gathers data from protection and
control devices, such as relays and meters, combining different
communication protocols into one common contact point. This
unit enables local HMI, data concentrator, and advanced smart
grid automation such as FDIR and VVO automation.

RER603

The Wireless Gateway RER603 provides wireless monitoring

and control of field devices via GPRS from a central site or
network control centre (SCADA). The device offers industrial
quality connectivity for the IEC 60870 protocol family and can be
connected by using IEC 60870-5-104 protocol from the SCADA
and controlled through 2 serial application ports.

REC603

The Wireless Controller REC603 is a compact, solution based

device for the remote control and monitoring of secondary
substations such as network disconnectors, load break switches
and Ring Main Units (RMUs) in distribution networks. REC603
enables the network control system (SCADA) to wirelessly monitor
and control the field devices over the public communication
infrastructure (GPRS).

Vacuum Circuit Breakers OVB-VBF are used in distribution systems rated at 24 / 36 /

40.5 kV and are of live tank design.

Pole Mounted
Circuit
Breaker

PVB

The PVB is a 12kV, three-phase, live tank, outdoor pole mounted vacuum circuit
breaker with solid dielectric insulator designed for pole-mounted or substation
applications. The insulating material of PVB is Hydrophobic Cycloaliphatic Epoxy
(HCEP), the next generation of Cycloaliphatic Epoxy (CEP).

Reclosers

OVR recloser
(single and three
phase), up to 38
kV, 1200 A, 16 kA

Provided with the PCD control, the OVR recloser provides single-phase tripping,
reduced maintenance, and increased safety with all electronics located in the low
voltage control cabinet. The OVR is available with single- and three-phase tripping
recloser units.

GridShield up to
38 kV, 1200 A,
16 kA

ABBs newest generation recloser with the advanced RER620 control and integrated
web browser for easy programming, the GridShield provides smart grid technologies
such as DNP and IEC 61850 with GOOSE messaging. The GridShield is available with
single- and three-phase tripping, integrated loop control.

OVR-15 recloser

ABBs continuous efforts to provide the most advanced feeder automation equipment
to the industry has led to the expansion of the OVR platform. OVR-15,is a threephase automatic recloser paired and fully type tested with RER615, an advanced and
comprehensive yet simple relay from ABBs Relion family. OVR-15 provides reliable
performance and advanced features to protect outdoor networks and substations.

Padmount

ReliaPad
padmounted
circuit breaker

Dead-front padmount circuit breaker consists of a three-phase breaker, load-break

switches, control cabinet and a VT for control power. The ReliaPad is offered with the
PCD or RER620 control for single- or three-phase tripping, remote communication,
and multiple smart grid applications.

SF6 Load
