Abb is the manufacturer and supplier of engineering tools for distribution protection and control. The protection system simulator sim600 is a general-use simulation and visualization appliance for protection and control systems. Salient features are as follows:
1 enhanced with optional voltage and current amplifiers, the appliance forms a complete simulation solution for protection relay systems.
2 the programmable sim600 is a microprocessor-based stand-alone appliance which can also be used in combination with a pc.
3 the computer serves as a programming tool for sim600 and at the same time as a user interface for the simulator.
4 sim600 provides increased understanding of protection relay schemes and solutions and so also increased operational safety and reliability of the control system.
