CONTACT INPUTS
A dry contact has one side connected to terminal B3b. This is the positive 48 V DC voltage rail supplied by the power sup-
ply module. The other side of the dry contact is connected to the required contact input terminal. Each contact input group
has its own common (negative) terminal which must be connected to the DC negative terminal (B3a) of the power supply
module. When a dry contact closes, a current of 1 to 3 mA flows through the associated circuit.
A wet contact has one side connected to the positive terminal of an external DC power supply. The other side of this contact
is connected to the required contact input terminal. If a wet contact is used, then the negative side of the external source
must be connected to the relay common (negative) terminal of each contact group. The maximum external source voltage
for this arrangement is 300 V DC.
The voltage threshold at which each group of four contact inputs detects a closed contact input is programmable as
17 V DC for 24 V sources, 33 V DC for 48 V sources, 84 V DC for 110 to 125 V sources, and 166 V DC for 250 V sources.

Wherever a tilde “~” symbol appears, substitute with the slot position of the module.
There is no provision in the relay to detect a DC ground fault on 48 V DC control power external output. We recommend
using an external DC supply.
GENERAL APPLICATION CONSIDERATIONS
Contacts outputs of protective relays, auxiliary contacts from breakers, disconnectors and other devices, are generally con-
nected to contacts inputs of protective relays. In some situations, the contact outputs of some protective relays can have
high impedance connected across it. When such a contact output is connected across a G30 contact input, it can spuri-
ously operate the G30 input even when the output is open, if there is a substantial distributed capacitance (represented by
C1) present in the wiring between the output and the G30 input and the debounce time setting in the G30 relay is low
enough. This false assertion of the contact input, when there is inadvertent ground present at the DC positive terminal, can
be prevented by inserting a resistor across the G30 input.
The following figure shows a typical DC circuit, with battery ground detection, of contact input. The contact output has par-
allel impedance across it (represented by R1).
