ABB REL300 Instruction Manual page 4

I.L. 40-385.7
PREFACE
Scope
This manual describes the functions and features of the REL300 Relay System. It is intended primarily for use
by engineers and technicians involved in the installation, testing, operation and maintenance of the REL300 sys-
tem.
Equipment Identification
The REL300 equipment is identified by the Catalog Number on the REL300 chassis nameplate. The Catalog
Number can be decoded by using Catalog Number Table 3-1 on page 3-51 of section 3.
Production Changes
When engineering and production changes are made to the REL300 equipment, a revision notation (SUB #) is
reflected on the appropriate schematic diagram, and associated parts information. Refer to I.L. 40-385.11 for
current sub number information.
Equipment Repair
Repair work is done most satisfactorily at the factory. When returning equipment, carefully pack modules and
other units, etc. All equipment should be returned in the original packing containers if possible. Any damage due
to improperly packed items will be charged to the customer.
Document Overview
The circuitry is divided into 6 standard modules and one option module. Section 1 provides the Product Descrip-
tion, which includes software functions. Section 2 presents the Specifications. Section 3 presents Pilot and Non-
Pilot applications with related Catalog Numbers for ordering purposes. REL300 Installation, Operation and
Maintenance are described in Section 4, with related Setting Calculations in Section 5. Acceptance Tests for
both Non-Pilot and Pilot System are described in Appendix A & B . The Index shows Index to Nomenclature.
System Diagrams are included in the Diagrams section at the back of the book.
Contents of Relay System
The REL300 Relay System includes the style numbers, listed below, with appropriate sub numbers (represent-
ing revision levels) for each module. Addenda pages may be included (representing future revisions).
Module
• Backplane
(Sub-Backplane Xfmr)
• Interconnect
• Option
• Filter
• Microprocessor
• Display
• Power Supply
Software System
REL300 software version V2.71 is included in this I.L.
Setting Nomenclature Appliques
If this I.L. is included as part of the shipment of an REL300 Relay system, the I.L. will contain setting nomencla-
ture appliques which can be placed in a convenient location, e.g., inside the two FT-14 covers. The appliques
provide a convenient (and complete) set of REL300 "settings" (see Table 4-1 on page 4-16 of section 4 for set-
ting nomenclature). There are two appliques which are printed protective sheets (contained in a plastic enve-
lope); the back of the sheets can be removed thereby exposing a stick-on surface.
