Virtualized Protection & Control SSC600 SW
Centralized protection and control for distribution substations
SSC600 SW is the virtualized version of the Smart Substation Control and Protection SS600 device. ABB introduced this revolutionary approach to protection and control (P&C) in distribution networks, where all the P&C functionality is centralized into one single device. One SSC600 device can handle the tasks of 30 protection relays. Centralizing this functionality into only one device in the substation reduces complexity and supports optimal, lifelong asset management and up to 15 percent savings in substation life cycle costs.
Combining SSC600 SW with merging units creates an IEC 61850-compliant centralized protection and control solution. The modular software can be flexibly modified for the entire lifetime of the digital substation and allows SSC600 SW to change with the evolving grid. SSC600 SW builds on ABB’s solid and proven technological foundation manifested in the renowned Relion® protection relay family.
