RIO600 overview

Overview

RIO600 is designed to expand the digital and analog I/O of ABB's Relion
and control relays and to provide I/O for the COM600 substation automation unit
using the IEC 61850 and Modbus TCP communication. Both galvanic RJ-45 and
optical LC connectors are supported for Ethernet station bus communication. RIO600
can also be used in secondary substations for fault passage indication and power
measurements reporting values directly to a peer protection relay or to an upper level
system. RIO600 accepts three-phase sensor signals (voltage and current) and provides
fault detection and metering functions.
RIO600 allows flexible I/O assignment and provides seamless IEC 61850
connectivity between the substation's input and output signals and the protection relay
or the COM600 substation gateway ensuring improved functionality and
performance. RIO600 supports both Edition 1 and Edition 2 versions of the IEC 61850
standard. RIO600 can also be used as a standalone device in grid automation
applications.
