DTP Digital Transformer Protection

8. HARDWARE DESCRIPTION
CAUTION
The DTP contains electronic components that could be damaged by electrostatic discharge if those
currents flow through certain terminals of the components. The main source of electrostatic discharge
currents is the human body, especially in conditions of low humidity, carpeted floors and isolating shoes.
Where these conditions exist, care should be exercised when removing and handling the modules. The
persons handling the modules should make sure that their body charge has been discharged, by touching
some surface at ground potential before touching any of the components on the modules.
8.1 PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION
8.1.1 CASE
The DTP’s case is a standard 19” rack 4 units high, manufactured in stainless steel and painted with grey epoxy
resin. It is composed of a backbone structure, that includes the strips where all the modules and boards are
connected, plus a rear plate with all the female connectors. All the boxes have a surge ground connection
terminal, essential not only in terms of safety, but also on behaviour against electromagnetic disturbances.
All modules are drawout type, enabling easy maintenance and repair of the unit.
The DTP also incorporates a plastic antitampering front cover. This cover keeps the relay sealed and provides a
high protection against dust and water (IP52 index according to IEC 529). The use of a push-button allows access
to the main functions without the need of removing the cover.
The front view of a typical DTP-B equipment is shown on figure 5.
8.1.2 ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
All the DTP electrical connections (voltage inputs and digital I/Os) are done through drawout terminal boards of 12
terminal blocks each, located on the rear of the device.
Besides those terminal blocks, the DTP units include two communication ports with three connectors; one front
DB-9 port for local connection, and two more located on the rear, to be used for remote connection to a PC (point-
to-point mode), or for network connection with other DDS System compatible units connected by means of a Level
2 Substation Concentrator PC. The front connector, and one of the rear connectors share the same DB-9 port.
The second communications port can be selected among the following:
•
RS-232
•
Glass F.O.
•
Plastic F.O.
•
RS-485
The rear plate also includes the terminal blocks for time synchronization through a demodulated IRIG-B input.
