The ABB REF615C-C is a member of the Relion® 615 series, representing a "C" (Control) level feeder protection and control relay. The "-C" suffix denotes a specific hardware configuration within the product line, characterized by a distinct arrangement of Input/Output (I/O) modules and communication ports. It is engineered as a versatile IED (Intelligent Electronic Device) for comprehensive feeder management in medium-voltage (MV) distribution networks.
