- Form Factor: Plug-in module for UR chassis
- Digital Inputs: Optically isolated, configurable wet/dry contact
- Digital Outputs: Relay contact outputs (Form A / Form C)
- Operating Voltage: 24–250 V DC / AC (input range, model-dependent)
- Operating Temperature: -20°C to +60°C
- Communication: Backplane interface to UR CPU module
- Compliance: IEC 61850, IEEE C37.90, UL/CE listed
- Weight: Approx. 200 g
Note: Specifications may vary by firmware revision. Always verify against the GE UR Series Instruction Manual for your specific relay model.
Compatible Replacement & Equivalent Models
When the GE UR6BH is unavailable or discontinued, the following modules may serve as functional replacements or equivalents — subject to hardware revision and chassis compatibility verification:
- GE UR6AH – Similar I/O module, earlier revision; verify output contact ratings
- GE UR6CH – Higher-density I/O variant; confirm slot compatibility
- GE UR7BH – Next-generation I/O module for UR Series; may require firmware update
- GE D60 / T60 / L90 I/O Modules – Platform-specific I/O cards for respective UR relay families
- Third-party equivalents: SEL, ABB REF615 I/O expansion modules (cross-platform; requires engineering review)
⚠ Important: Always confirm part revision, chassis slot type, and firmware compatibility before substituting any I/O module in a protection relay system.
Why Choose the Original Model
- Guaranteed Compatibility: Factory-matched to GE UR Series chassis and CPU modules
- Certified Performance: Meets IEC 61850 and IEEE C37.90 protection relay standards
- Firmware Integration: Seamless plug-and-play with GE EnerVista configuration software
- Long-term Support: GE Grid Solutions provides firmware updates and technical documentation
- Traceability: Full manufacturing traceability for critical substation and utility applications
Typical Applications
- Power substation protection and control panels
- Transmission line differential protection (L90, D60 relay platforms)
- Transformer and bus protection schemes
- Industrial motor protection and feeder automation
- SCADA and IEC 61850 GOOSE messaging integration
- Utility-grade protection relay retrofits and upgrades
System Compatibility
The GE UR6BH is compatible with the following GE UR Series relay platforms (slot and revision dependent):
- GE D60 – Line Distance Protection System
- GE T60 – Transformer Management Relay
- GE L90 – Line Differential Relay
- GE B90 – Bus Differential Protection System
- GE C60 – Breaker Protection System
- GE F60 – Feeder Management Relay
- GE G60 – Generator Management Relay
- GE M60 – Motor Management Relay
Verify chassis slot designation (e.g., Slot 6B) and hardware revision compatibility with GE Grid Solutions documentation before installation.
Selection Guide
Use the following criteria to determine whether the GE UR6BH is the correct module for your application:
- Step 1 – Identify your UR relay model (D60, T60, L90, etc.) and required slot position
- Step 2 – Confirm I/O count requirements – number of digital inputs and relay output contacts needed
- Step 3 – Check input voltage range – ensure compatibility with your field wiring (24 V DC, 125 V DC, 250 V AC, etc.)
- Step 4 – Verify hardware revision – match the UR6BH revision to your chassis and firmware version
- Step 5 – Confirm output contact type – Form A (NO) vs. Form C (NO/NC) based on trip/alarm circuit design
- Step 6 – Review IEC 61850 requirements – if GOOSE messaging is required, confirm module firmware support

Replacement & Compatibility FAQ
Q: Can the GE UR6BH replace a UR6AH directly?
A: In most cases yes, but verify the output contact rating and hardware revision. The BH revision typically offers improved contact durability over AH.
Q: Is the UR6BH compatible with GE EnerVista software?
A: Yes. The UR6BH is fully supported by GE EnerVista UR Setup and EnerVista Launchpad for configuration and firmware management.
Q: Can I use a third-party I/O module as a replacement?
A: Third-party modules are not recommended for protection relay applications due to certification and liability requirements. Contact us for OEM-equivalent sourcing.
Q: What is the lead time for the GE UR6BH?
A: In-stock units ship within 1–3 business days. For sourced or refurbished units, allow 7–14 business days.
Q: Do you provide a test report or certificate of conformance?
A: Yes. Documentation is available upon request for all units.
