Connecting the binary input and output signals
M11992-9 v8
Auxiliary power and signals are connected using voltage connectors. Signal wires are
connected to a female connector (see Figure
) which is then plugged into the corresponding
) located at the rear of the IED. For location of BIM, BOM, SOM
. Connection diagrams for BIM, BOM, SOM and
Do not insert anything else to the female connector but the corresponding
male connector. Inserting anything else (such as a measurement probe) may
violate the female connector and prevent a proper electrical contact between
the printed circuit board and the external wiring connected to the screw
terminal block.
If the IED is equipped with a test-switch of type RTXP 24, COMBIFLEX wires with 20 A sockets,
1.5mm² (AWG16) conductor area must be used to connect the auxiliary power.
Procedure
1.
Connect signals to the female connector
The conductors can be of rigid type (solid, stranded) or of flexible type.
The female connectors accept conductors with a cross section area of 0.2-2.5 mm
2
(AWG
24-14). If two conductors are used in the same terminal, the maximum permissible cross
section area is 0.2-1 mm
2
(AWG 24-18).
If two conductors, each with area 1.5 mm
2
(AWG 16) need to be connected to the same
terminal, a ferrule must be used, see figure
. Crimp this ferrule properly to the wire
using tools as recommended by the supplier of the ferrules (keep stripping length of the
cable to minimum 10 mm). The fastening screw shall be tightened with a torque of 0.4
Nm (This torque applies to all binary connectors).
2.
Plug the female connector to the corresponding back-side mounted male connector
3.
Lock the female connector by fastening the lock screws
