Resetting the trip commands/signals

The following resetting modes can be selected for each binary output (tripping or signal outputs):

· Latches until manually reset

· Resets automatically after a delay

Inspection/maintenance

A binary input can be assigned that excludes a bay unit from evaluation by the protection system. 

It is used while performing maintenance or inspection activities on the primary equipment respectively.

Redundant power supplies (Optional)

The central unit may be ordered with a redundant power supply.

Time synchronization

The absolute time accuracy with respect to an external time reference depends on the method of synchronization

7. Requirements

Optical fiber cables

A distributed busbar protection layout requires optical fiber cables and connectors with the following characteristics:

· 2 optical fiber cores per bay unit

· glass fibers with gradient index

· diameter of core 62.5/50 µm, sheath 125 µm

· maximum permissible attenuation ≤ 8 dB/6dB

· LC connector (for 62.5/50 µm optical fibers)

· rodent protected and longitudinally waterproof if in cable ducts

Please observe the permissible bending radius when laying the cables.
