ABB SPAG 333 C Generator Protection Relay
ABB SPAG 333 C Generator Protection Relay Supplier and Exporter in India
ABB SPAG 333 C Replacement and Legacy Spare Availability
Replacement: ABB SPAG 333 C is discontinued. For an existing installation, the replacement should be checked against the complete ABB order code and relay nameplate to match the correct legacy unit.
ARP IMPEX supplies and exports ABB SPAG 333 C generator protection relays for replacement, maintenance and existing generator protection panels.
SPAG 333 C belongs to ABB’s older SPACOM generator protection range. It was mainly used for small and medium-sized generators in hydro power plants, thermal power stations, industrial generating plants, marine systems and offshore installations.
The relay combines overcurrent, short-circuit, reverse power, overvoltage and earth-fault protection. One of the main features of SPAG 333 C is its restricted earth-fault protection, making it particularly suitable for generators that are solidly earthed or earthed through a low-resistance resistor.
Since SPAG 333 C is no longer an active ABB product, most enquiries today are for replacement of a failed relay, maintenance stock, plant shutdown spares or matching units for older generator protection panels.
If you need an ABB SPAG 333 C replacement relay, send the complete ABB order number or a clear photograph of the existing relay nameplate. We can check the correct legacy version against your quantity and destination country.

Features
- Three-phase overcurrent protection
- Short-circuit protection
- Reverse power protection
- Overvoltage protection
- Restricted earth-fault protection
- Residual-current earth-fault protection
- Protection against generator motoring
- Local fault and operating indication
- SPA serial communication
- Connection to higher-level monitoring systems
- Internal relay self-supervision
- Suitable for land-based, marine and offshore generator installations
For a replacement enquiry, detailed relay settings are normally not required at the first stage. The ABB order code and existing nameplate are more useful for checking the correct unit.
Applications
SPAG 333 C is commonly used for:
- Small generator protection
- Medium-sized generator protection
- Generator restricted earth-fault protection
- Generator stator earth-fault protection
- Generator reverse power protection
- Solidly earthed generators
- Low-resistance-earthed generators
- Small hydro power plants
- Thermal power stations
- Captive power plants
- Industrial generating stations
- Generator protection panels
- Marine generator systems
- Offshore installations
- Existing ABB SPACOM panels
- Plant shutdown spare requirements
ABB particularly identifies the relay for small and medium generators, including solidly earthed and low-resistance-earthed generator applications.
ABB SPAG 333 Models
The SPAG 333 range was supplied in two main versions:
ABB SPAG 333 B
SPAG 333 B is the version without serial communication capability.
ABB SPAG 333 C
SPAG 333 C includes a serial communication interface for connection to ABB’s SPA bus and higher-level monitoring or control systems.
The protection functions are closely related, but the communication arrangement is different. For an existing panel replacement, the exact B or C version should therefore be confirmed from the nameplate.
ABB SPAG 333 C Replacement
ABB lists SPAG 333 C as not active since 2007. For generators where the relay remains in service, buyers may need:
- Replacement for a failed SPAG 333 C
- Matching legacy spare
- Spare for an existing generator panel
- Plant shutdown stock
- Maintenance inventory
- Marine generator spare
- Offshore installation spare
For an exact replacement, please send:
- Complete ABB order code
- Clear relay nameplate photograph
- Required quantity
- Destination country
- Required delivery schedule
ABB’s current SPACOM-to-REX615 retrofit program lists selected legacy relay types, but SPAG 333 C is not currently included. We therefore do not describe REX615 or another ABB relay as a direct retrofit replacement for SPAG 333 C.
For an existing generator panel, the correct starting point is the original SPAG 333 C part number and nameplate.
