On January 1, 2016, the current revision of PRC-005-6 became mandatory and enforceable. to protect both human lives and equipment as well as ensure uninterrupted power supply. ABB's knowledge and experience are not limited to relays only, full support for all protection and control relays throughout their entire life cycle. Our extensive life cycle services include training. ays has steadily increased over the four decades since their invention. Over time, both older electromechanical relays and newer solid-state or microprocessor-based relays can wear down or fail in ways that are. The NERC PRC-005-6 standards are designed to establish requirements for planning, designing, implementing, and maintaining protection and systems control within the power industry. - AN INVESTMENT AGAINST DAMAGE FROM FUTURE FAULTS.
