ABB Distance protection relay -500PSM02 Original stock in stock

ABB 500PSM02: Product Overview

The 500PSM02 is a distance protection relay from ABB’s REL 500 series, designed to safeguard high-voltage transmission lines and substations against phase-to-phase and ground faults. This relay provides adaptive zone-based protection, fault location, and grid automation capabilities, ensuring rapid fault isolation and minimal disruption to power networks. It is widely deployed in transmission systems, industrial grids, and renewable energy plants to enhance grid reliability and comply with international standards like IEC 61850 and IEEE C37.90.
