Installing SAM600
As depicted in
and
SAM600 modules can be deployed in a
variety of scenarios which optimally suit different installation types.
Physical deployment
SAM600 modules installed in a single marshalling kiosk in the field (
) - All SAM600 modules are installed in a marshalling kiosk which is placed
in the field close to the primary apparatus. Cabling from the instrument
transformers is terminated at the kiosk and fiber optic is used for
communication to protection and control equipment. The kiosk requires station
battery supply for powering the SAM600 modules.
SAM600 modules installed in several marshalling kiosks (
and
) - SAM600 modules can be deployed in a physically distributed setup and
exchange information over fiber optic communication according to IEC 61850
standard. This deployment optimizes proximity to primary apparatus.
SAM600 modules installed in secondary system control and protection panels
(
) - The existing copper cables from primary apparatus can be
terminated directly at SAM600 modules mounted in the station panels. This
deployment option is ideal for retrofit projects where copper cabling already
exists and is not exchanged in a retrofit project.
Communication architectures
A SAM600-TS module is optional in a SAM600 system setup, but is necessary
for 1PPS synchronization requirements (
).
The SAM600 system bus can be formed as HSR ring. It is possible to use
electrical and optical connections within one ring if the modules are not located
in one marshalling kiosk (
).
SAM600-TS modules can be configured to join two physical ports into a
redundant access point according to the PRP or HSR standard (
).
