B30 Bus Differential Relay


B30 Bus Differential Relay

 

 

 

 

The B30 is a digital relay that provides low-impedance bus protection, control, and metering in one integrated package. It may be used as a standalone device or as a component of an automated substation control system.

What's New in the B30:

New 2nd Differential Zone gives additional protection flexibility to the B30
The 2nd differential zone is identical to the 1st one and enables the B30 to suit a larger number of bus bar schemes such as separate small bars, split bars or single bus bar with supervision zone (firmware version 5.70).
Fully Compatible with GE's Multlilin HardFiber System - Provides support for GE's IEC 61850 HardFiber Process Bus Solution:
- Complete IEC61850 Process Bus Solution providing resource optimization and minimizing total P&C lifecycle costs
Security Enhancements - Enabling NERC CIP compliance:
- Dual Permission access requiring live permission from both the user and from SCADA operators before settings can be changed or commands can be given to the relay
- Logging of user commands in the security audit trail relay - creates a record and sequence of events for troubleshooting and security auditing
Ambient Temperature Monitoring:
- Provides alarms when the ambient temperature exceeds hot extreme
