The ABB UFES is an active protection device rather than a passive safety feature. It actively creates a safe condition in just a few milliseconds by short-circuiting the fault to ground. From the simple "Service Box" installation to complex digital retrofits with Relion relays, the UFES adapts to a wide range of low- and medium-voltage environments.

– this involves installing light sensors in each compartment, running fiber‑optic cables to the QRU1 or QRU100, connecting a current transformer (if using QRU1), and wiring the trip output to the PSEs.

The intelligence of the system resides in the electronic unit. It evaluates sensor inputs and triggers the PSE. – this involves installing light sensors in each

Using the wrong manual can lead to:

Wiring the QRU requires precision. Incorrect auxiliary wiring can blind the system or cause a false discharge of the pyrotechnic actuators. Optical Sensor Placement

A typical UFES system controlled by a UFE relay consists of:
