Purpose: Describes how to wire the GES-202TLP System.
Danger: The utility input power line must have circuit breaker or fuse protection as per the local
electrical code. It is referred to as “ Upstream Circuit Breaker” in this manual.
Before wiring the system, determine the size of the load:
TIP:
Each of the six contacts are of form C type, meaning Normally Open (NO), common (C) and Normally Close
(NC) dry contact rated for 1 Amp at 120 VAC. Each of these contacts can be individually programmed to energize
and stay latched for ON BATTERY, LOW BATTERY, TIMER, ALARM, FAULT and many other conditions as
described in subsequent chapters. The ON BATTERY contact(s) are activated as soon as the GES-202TLP is
transferred to battery mode. LOW BATTERY contact(s) are activated only in battery mode, as soon as the
discharged batteries reaches the lower remaining battery capacity as set by user and remains latched as long as
the system remains in battery mode. The TIMER contact(s) are activated only in the battery mode after the
user-programmed time is attained, that can be set in 15-minute intervals from 15 minutes to 8 hours.
TIP:
Verify that all Breakers, AC and battery breakers are OFF prior to start of wiring.
Is the load over or
under 2000 VA
/1500 W ?
Run the intersection in FLASH mode
connected as above.
OR
Keep the intersection running normal
in full phase till the battery
completely depletes down to shutdown resulting in blackout
OR
Keep the intersection
running normal in
full phase
for certain time or till
battery depletes down to certain capacity, both of which are
programmable. Run the intersection
in flash
mode after that, till the
battery depletes down completely resulting in blackout if utility does not
return. Connect Traffic controller’s AUTO / FLASH circuit to any one of the
six programmable contacts at the GES-202TLP programmed for “
Timer
”
or “
Low Battery
”. This method is
recommended
to ride out small power
outages, which for most times are utility interruptions.
Put the Intersection in FLASH mode
as soon as
GES-202TLP goes into Battery mode, by connecting any one
of the six programmed contacts to “
ON
BATT
” and
connecting it to the AUTO / FLASH circuit of any controller.
