REU 513 User’s Guide ABB Substation Automation Products and Systems 2.1.5. Disturbance recorder 2.1.5.1. Function The relay features an integrated disturbance recorder for recording monitored quantities. The recorder captures continuously curve forms of the voltages as well as the external binary input signal and states of the internal protection stages, and stores these to the volatile memory.
ABB Substation Automation User’s Guide REU 513 Products and Systems Correspondingly, triggering on the falling edge means that the recording sequence starts when the active signal resets. Serial parameters V241...V244 define the triggering conditions and parameter V246 is for manual triggering. When the recorder has been triggered and a recording stored into the memory, the value of parameter V246 changes from 0 to 1.

Please contact the manufacturer or the nearest representative for further information about checking, overhaul and recalibration of the relay. When contacting ABB for ordering service, please give a description of the fault and state the possible fault code. Note! Static protection relays are measuring instruments that should be handled with care and protected against moisture and mechanical stress, especially during transport.
ABB Substation Automation User’s Guide REU 513 Products and Systems Secondary testing According to the manufacturer’s recommendations the relay should be submitted to secondary testing at five years’ intervals to ensure proper operation. Testing should always be performed in accordance with national regulations and instructions.
RESET TestU513 Fig. 2.0.-1 Secondary injection test circuitry for the voltage relay REU 513 When the test circuit has been completed and the switchgroups set, the auxiliary voltage may be connected to the relay. The operation of the test circuit can be verified with the aid of a multimeter.
ABB Substation Automation User’s Guide REU 513 Products and Systems 2.2.1. Low-set stage U> Starting • Close switch S1 and slowly increase the test voltage until the relay starts and the indicator L3 is lit. • Read the start voltage value from the voltmeter.
REU 513 User’s Guide ABB Substation Automation Products and Systems Inverse-time characteristic At inverse-time characteristic, the operate time is measured at two different test voltage values (1.1 x U>> and 1.4 x U>>). The operate times thus obtained are compared with the operate times obtained from the voltage/time curves of the concerned inverse-time characteristic.
ABB Substation Automation User’s Guide REU 513 Products and Systems compared with the operate times obtained from the voltage/time curve. Before the test, make sure that the switch SGF2/4=1 to block the stage U< when S1 is switched off. • Set the test voltage at one of the two defined test voltages.
Products and Systems Spare parts To achieve the best possible operation accuracy, all parts of REU 513 have been calibrated together. Thus, each product forms a whole for which no separate spare parts can be supplied. In case of malfunction, please consult your relay supplier.
