Completed with the optional synchrocheck func-
tion, voltage remant protection, and process bus 
with sampled values of analog phase voltages, re-
lays with standard config. L ensure a safe intercon-
nection of two networks.
The standard configuration N provides the highest 
functionality level of all standard configurations. It 
is delivered as preconfigured, in the same way as 
other 615 standard configurations. It is typically re-
configured when taken into use. This allows flexibil-
ity in standardizing one type of REF615. Depending 
on the specific feeder application the appropriate 
functionality can be selected and own configura-
tions can be created with the Application Configu-
ration tool in PCM600. Standard configuration N is 
not designed for using all the available functional-
ity content in one relay at the same time. In order to 
ensure the performance of the relay the user spe-
cific configuration load is verified with Application 
Configuration tool of PCM600.
In addition to directional ground-fault protection, 
one of these three functions can be ordered as an 
option: admittance-based, harmonics-based or 
wattmetric-based earth-fault protection. Admit-
tance- and wattmetric-based earth-fault protec-
tion functions are available for standard configura-
tions L and N. Harmonics-based earth-fault 
protection is available for standard configurations 
D, F, L and N. The admittance-based earth-fault 
protection ensures a correct operation of the pro-
tection even though the connection status informa-
tion of the Petersen coil is missing. The standard 
configurations L and N additionally offer multifre-
quency admittance-based ground-fault protection.
The configuration P provides the ideal functionality 
for the implementation of Main-Tie-Main and Main-
Tie-Tie-Main Automatic Transfer Schemes. With Di-
rectional and non-directional overcurrent protec-
tion, for one breaker, and six voltage inputs for 
undervoltage, overvoltage, negative-sequence volt-
age, and voltage remnant protection.  The voltage 
remnant protection is ideal for the implementation 
Automatic Transfer schemes with motor loads con-
nected to the bus, where supervision is required to 
prevent re-energizing the motors, before the power 
is at an acceptable level. The configuration P is 
completed with synchro-check functionality for the 
implementation of Automatic Transfer Schemes 
where the incoming sources would be paralleled 
momentarily to increase reliability.
