Environmental aspects
Sustainability has been taken into account from the beginning of the product design
including the pro-environmental manufacturing process, long life time, operation
reliability and disposing of the IED.
The choice of materials and the suppliers have been made according to the EU
RoHS directive (2002/95/EC). This directive limits the use of hazardous substances
which are the following:
Operational reliability and long life time have been assured with extensive testing
during the design and manufacturing processes. Moreover, long life time is
supported by maintenance and repair services as well as by the availability of spare
parts.
Design and manufacturing have been done under a certified environmental system.
The effectiveness of the environmental system is constantly evaluated by an
external auditing body. We follow environmental rules and regulations
systematically to evaluate their effect on our products and processes.
All parts used in this product are recyclable. When disposing of an IED or its parts
contact a local waste handler who is authorized and specialized in disposing

3.5 Communication
The IED supports a range of communication protocols including IEC 61850, IEC
60870-5-103, Modbus® and DNP3. Operational information and controls are
available through these protocols. However, some communication functionality,
for example, horizontal communication between the IEDs, is only enabled by the
IEC 61850 communication protocol.
The 620 series IEDs can run with two protocols simultaneously when one of the
protocols is always IEC61850 and the other one is any of the other available
protocols (IEC 60870-5-103, Modbus or DNP3) based on the order code.
The IED can support five simultaneous clients. If PCM600 reserves one client
connection, only four client connections are left, for example, for IEC 61850 and
Modbus.
All communication connectors, except for the front port connector, are placed on
integrated optional communication modules. The IED can be connected to Ethernet-
based communication systems via the RJ-45 connector (100Base-TX) or the fibre-
optic LC connector (100Base-FX).

link or switch with a zero-switchover time, thus fulfilling the stringent real-time
requirements for the substation automation horizontal communication and time
synchronization.
PRP specifies that each device is connected in parallel to two local area networks.
HSR applies the PRP principle to rings and to the rings of rings to achieve cost-
effective redundancy. Thus, each device incorporates a switch element that
forwards frames from port to port.
PRP
Each PRP node, called a doubly attached node with PRP (DANP), is attached to
two independent LANs operated in parallel. These parallel networks in PRP are
called LAN A and LAN B. The networks are completely separated to ensure failure
independence, and they can have different topologies. Both networks operate in
parallel, thus providing zero-time recovery and continuous checking of redundancy
to avoid communication failures. Non-PRP nodes, called singly attached nodes
(SANs), are either attached to one network only (and can therefore communicate
only with DANPs and SANs attached to the same network), or are attached through
a redundancy box, a device that behaves like a DANP.
COM600
SCADA
There are three alternative ways to connect a laptop or a workstation as SAN to the
PRP network.
620 series 35
Operation Manual
Section 3 1MRS757643 A
620 series overview
HSR
HSR applies the PRP principle of parallel operation to a single ring, treating the
two directions as two virtual LANs. For each frame sent, a node, DANH, sends two
frames, one over each port. Both frames circulate in opposite directions over the
ring and each node forwards the frames it receives, from one port to the other.
When the originating node receives a frame sent to itself, it discards that to avoid
loops; therefore, no ring protocol is needed. Individually attached nodes, SANs,
such as laptops and printers, must be attached through a “redundancy box” that acts
as a ring element. For example, a 615 or 620 series IED with HSR support can be
used as a redundancy box.
GUID-207430A7-3AEC-42B2-BC4D-3083B3225990 V1 EN
RSTP
For the correct operation of redundant loop topology, it is essential that the external
switches in the network support the RSTP protocol and that it is enabled in the
switches. Otherwise, connecting the loop topology can cause problems to the
network. The IED itself does not support link-down detection or RSTP. The ring
recovery process is based on the aging of MAC addresses and link-up/link-down
events can cause temporary breaks in communication. For better performance of
the self-healing loop, it is recommended that the external switch furthest from the

IED loop is assigned as the root switch (bridge priority = 0) and the bridge priority
increases towards the IED loop. The end links of the IED loop can be attached to
the same external switch or to two adjacent external switches. Self-healing Ethernet
ring requires a communication module with at least two Ethernet interfaces for all
IEDs.
PRP and HSR are zero-delay protocols but RSTP has a small
switching delay.

A connectivity package includes all of the data which is used to describe the IED.
For example it contains a list of what parameters exist, which data format is used,
the units, the setting range, the access rights and visibility of the parameter. In
addition it contains code which allows software packages that consume the
connectivity package to properly communicate with the IED. It also allows for
localization of text even when its read from the IED in a standard format such as
COMTRADE.
Update Manager is a tool that helps in defining the right connectivity package
versions for different system products and tools. Update Manager is included with
products that use connectivity packages.

Section 7 Troubleshooting
1. Check the error origin from the IED's supervision events Main menu/
Monitoring/IED status/Self-supervision.
2. Reboot the IED and recheck the supervision events to see if the fault has
cleared.
3. In case of persistent faults, contact ABB for corrective actions.
Clear any indications on the display before running the display test
manually.
An indication about the fault is shown as a message on the LHMI. The text
Internal Fault with an additional text message, a code, date and time, is
shown to indicate the fault type.
Different actions are taken depending on the severity of the fault. The IED tries to
eliminate the fault by restarting. After the fault is found to be permanent, the IED
stays in the internal fault mode. All other output contacts are released and locked
for the internal fault. The IED continues to perform internal tests during the fault
situation.
The internal fault code indicates the type of internal IED fault. When a fault
appears, the code must be recorded so that it can be reported to ABB customer service.

factory state. All default settings and configuration files stored in the factory are
restored.
The IED restores the factory settings and restarts. Restoring takes 1-3 minutes.
Confirmation of restoring the factory settings is shown on the display a few
seconds, after which the IED restarts.
The physical inspection of wiring connections often reveals the wrong connection
for phase currents or voltages. However, even though the phase current or voltage
connections to IED terminals might be correct, wrong polarity of one or more
measurement transformers can cause problems.
• Check the current or voltage measurements and their phase information from
Main menu/Measurements.
• Check that the phase information and phase shift between phases is correct.
• Correct the wiring if needed.
• Check the actual state of the connected binary inputs from Main menu/
Monitoring/I/O status/Binary input values.
• Test and change the relay state manually in Main menu/Tests/Binary outputs.
Section 8 Commissioning
Familiarize yourself with the IED and its functionality before you start the
commissioning work.
• Ensure that you have all the needed station drawings such as single line and
wiring diagrams.
• Ensure that your version of the technical manual applies to the IED version
you test.
• Ensure that your setting software and connectivity packages work with the
IED version you test.
• Find out if you need any additional software.
• Ensure that you have the IED settings either on paper or in electronic format.
The settings and logic should be well documented.
• Inspect the settings to ensure that they are correct.
• Ensure that you have the correct cable to connect your PC to the IED's
communication port. The RJ-45 port supports any CAT 5 Ethernet cable but
the recommendation is STP.
• Test your PC's communication port before you go to the site.
• Find out who to contact if you have trouble and make sure you have a means
to contact them.
• Find out who is responsible for the settings.
• Ensure that you have with you the proper test equipment and all needed
connection cables.
• Ensure that the owner of the switchgear familiarizes you with the work site
and any special aspects of it.
• Ensure that you know how to operate in emergency situations. Find out where
the first aid and safety materials and exit routes are.
The CTs must be connected in accordance with the terminal diagram provided with
the IED, both with regards to phases and polarity. The following tests are
recommended for every primary CT or CT core connected to the IED.
• Primary injection test to verify the current ratio of the CT, the correct wiring
up to the protection IED and correct phase sequence connection (that is L1,
L2, L3.)
• Polarity check to prove that the predicted direction of the secondary current
flow is correct for a given direction of the primary current flow. This is an
essential test for the proper operation of the directional function, protection or
measurement in the IED.
• CT secondary loop resistance measurement to confirm that the current
transformer secondary loop DC resistance is within specification and that there
are no high resistance joints in the CT winding or wiring.
• CT excitation test to ensure that the correct core in the CT is connected to the
IED. Normally only a few points along the excitation curve are checked to
ensure that there are no wiring errors in the system, for example, due to a
mistake in connecting the CT's measurement core to the IED.
• CT excitation test to ensure that the CT is of the correct accuracy rating and
that there are no short circuited turns in the CT windings. Manufacturer's
design curves should be available for the CT to compare the actual results.
• Earthing check of the individual CT secondary circuits to verify that each three-
phase set of main CTs is properly connected to the station earth and only at
one electrical point.
• Insulation resistance check.
• Phase identification of CT shall be made.
• Polarity check
• VT circuit voltage measurement (primary injection test)
• Earthing check
• Phase relationship
• Insulation resistance check
The polarity check verifies the integrity of circuits and the phase relationships. The
polarity must be measured as close to the IED as possible to ensure that most of the
wiring is also checked.
The primary injection test verifies the VT ratio and the wiring all the way from the
primary system to the IED. Injection must be performed for each phase-to-neutral
circuit and each phase-to-phase pair. In each case, voltages in all phases and
neutral are measured.
• Preferably, disconnect the binary input connector from the binary input cards.
• Check all the connected signals so that both the input level and the polarity are
in accordance with the IED specifications.
Do not use AC voltage. Binary inputs are rated for DC voltage only.
• Preferably, disconnect the binary output connector from the binary output
cards.
• Check all connected signals so that both load and voltage are in accordance
with the IED specifications.
8.3 Authorizations
Passwords are settable. LHMI password must be at least four and WHMI password
at least nine characters. Maximum number of characters is 20 for the WHMI
password and 8 for the LHMI password. Only the following characters are accepted:

Each IED has an Ethernet front connector for PCM600 access. Depending on the
station concept and the used station protocol, additional Ethernet interfaces may be
available on the rear side of the IED. All Ethernet interfaces can be used to connect
PCM600.
When an Ethernet based station protocol is used, the PCM600 communication can
use the same Ethernet port and IP address. The IED is able to separate the
information belonging to the PCM600 dialog.
Two options are available for the connection of PCM600 to the IED.
The IED has a DHCP server for the front interface. The DHCP server assigns an IP
address to the computer connected to the front interface. The computer's LAN
interface has to be configured to obtain the IP address automatically.
If the protocol does not operate as expected, check that other serial
protocols are not using the COM port.
Depending on the hardware configuration, the IED can be equipped with one or
several UART-based serial communication ports. The communication ports can be
either galvanic (RS-485, RS-232) or fibre-optic. The IED uses serial ports and
drivers as different types of serial communication protocol links.
Serial ports are called COM1, COM2 and so on, depending on the number of serial
ports in the IED hardware configuration. Each COM port driver has its own setting
parameters found via the LHMI in Configuration/Communication/COMn (n= 1,2,
…).
1) When fiber mode is used, the Serial mode parameter value must be RS485 2wire.
All link setting parameters are not found in the COMn settings.
Additional link setting parameters are found in the setting
parameter list of the used serial protocol, since some serial protocol
standards allow changes in link parameters, while other protocol
standards do not.
Serial communication diagnostics and monitoring is divided between the serial link
driver and the serial communication protocol. The lower level physical and protocol-
independent aspects of the UART-based serial communication are monitored in the
serial link driver. Diagnostic counters and monitoring values are found via the
LHMI in Monitoring/Communication/COMn (n= 1,2,…).
Monitoring data for a COM channel can be divided into basic and detailed
diagnostic counters.

Adjust the display contrast anywhere in the menu structure to obtain optimal
readability.
The selected contrast value is stored in the non-volatile memory if you are logged
in and authorized to control the IED. After an auxiliary power failure, the contrast
is restored.
Use the keypad to switch between the display symbols IEC 61850, IEC 60617 and

1. Set the DST on day and DST off day parameters to define on which week day
the time shift occurs.
2. Set the DST on date and DST off date parameters to define on which month
and week the time shift occurs.
The DST on/off date must precede the selected DST on/off day and be within
the same week as the DST shift.
For example, if the DST is observed from the last Sunday in March to the last
Sunday in October and the time shift occurs at 01:00 UTC, the setting
parameters are:
Set the DST on day and DST off day to "not in use" to determine the
exact date and time for the DST shift. Repeat the setting yearly, as
the time for the DST shift is not on the same date every year.
To disable the DST, set the DST offset parameter to "0 min".

Each analog channel has an equal set of parameters and correspondingly, each
binary channel has an equal set of parameters.
The IED has to be in the test mode before the digital outputs and certain output
signals of protection and other functions can be activated.
The Ready LED also flashes if the IED detects a diagnostic failure.
Check the test mode setting and the IED's IRF alarm contact status
to find the reason for the failure.
The test mode is useful for simulated testing of functions and outputs without
providing current inputs.
A071154 V2 EN
If you do not cancel the test mode, it remains on and the Ready
LED remains flashing.
Differing from real internal fault situation, the other output contacts
are not released and locked during the test. In other words,
protection functions can operate and trip the outputs when the
internal fault is tested.
A071156 V2 EN
The ABB Product Data Registration feature traces composition changes related to
the IED's SW or HW.
After a composition change, an LCT indication is seen on the LHMI at the IED
startup. At this point, PCM600 should be connected to the IED as it reads the
changed data from the IED. The LCT indication is cleared in the same way as other
indications. If PCM600 is not connected to the IED, the indication is seen again
after the IED's reboot.
A071266 V2 EN
The number of composition changes can be seen from the Composition changes
parameter in Main Menu/Monitoring/IED status.
