• PC with PCM600 installed along with the connectivity packages corresponding
to the IEDs to be tested.
• Administration rights on the PC, to set up IP addresses
• Product documentation (engineering manual, installation manual,
commissioning manual, operation manual, technical manual and communication
protocol manual)
2.3 Checking of the power supply
Check that the auxiliary supply voltage remains within the permissible input voltage
range under all operating conditions. Check that the polarity is correct before
powering the protection relay.
2.4 Energizing the IED
2.4.1 Checking the IED operation
Check all connections to external circuitry to ensure correct installation, before
energizing the IED and carrying out the commissioning procedures.
• Energize the power supply of the IED to start it up. This can be done in a number
of ways, from energizing a whole cubicle to energizing a single IED.
• Set the IED time if no time synchronization source is configured.
• Check the self-supervision function via the LHMI path Main menu/
Monitoring/IED status or Main menu/Monitoring/Internal events to verify
that the IED operates properly.
2.4.2 IED startup sequence
The following sequence is expected when the IED is energized.
• The green Ready LED starts flashing instantly and the ABB logo is shown on the
LCD.
• After approximately 30 seconds, "Starting" is shown on the LCD.
• Within 90 seconds, the main menu is shown on the LCD and the green Ready
LED shows a steady light, which indicates a successful startup.
The startup time depends on the size of the application configuration.
Application configurations with less functionality have shorter
startup times.
