    Chapter 2 - Safety Information INSTALLATION, COMMISSIONING AND SERVICING LIFTING HAZARDS Many injuries are caused by: Lifting heavy objects ● Lifting things incorrectly ● ● Pushing or pulling heavy objects Using the same muscles repetitively ● Plan carefully, identify any possible hazards and determine how best to move the product. Look at other ways of moving the load to avoid manual handling.
  • Page 21: Ul/Csa/Cul Requirements

    Chapter 2 - Safety Information Warning: NEVER look into optical fibres or optical output connections. Always use optical power meters to determine operation or signal level. Warning: Testing may leave capacitors charged to dangerous voltage levels. Discharge capacitors by reducing test voltages to zero before disconnecting test leads. Caution: Operate the equipment within the specified electrical and environmental limits.
  • Page 22: Equipment Connections

    Chapter 2 - Safety Information Caution: Digital input circuits should be protected by a high rupture capacity NIT or TIA fuse with maximum rating of 16 A. for safety reasons, current transformer circuits must never be fused. Other circuits should be appropriately fused to protect the wire used. Caution: CTs must NOT be fused since open circuiting them may produce lethal hazardous voltages...
  • Page 23: Pre-Energisation Checklist

    Chapter 2 - Safety Information Caution: Use a locknut or similar mechanism to ensure the integrity of stud-connected PCTs. Caution: The recommended minimum PCT wire size is 2.5 mm² for countries whose mains supply is 230 V (e.g. Europe) and 3.3 mm² for countries whose mains supply is 110 V (e.g. North America).
  • Page 24 Chapter 2 - Safety Information Note: For most GE equipment with ring-terminal connections, the threaded terminal block for current transformer termination is automatically shorted if the module is removed. Therefore external shorting of the CTs may not be required. Check the equipment documentation and wiring diagrams first to see if this applies.
  • Page 25: Upgrading/Servicing

    Chapter 2 - Safety Information UPGRADING/SERVICING Warning: Do not insert or withdraw modules, PCBs or expansion boards from the equipment while energised, as this may result in damage to the equipment. Hazardous live voltages would also be exposed, endangering personnel. Caution: Internal modules and assemblies can be heavy and may have sharp edges.
  • Page 26: Decommissioning And Disposal

    Chapter 2 - Safety Information DECOMMISSIONING AND DISPOSAL Caution: Before decommissioning, completely isolate the equipment power supplies (both poles of any dc supply). The auxiliary supply input may have capacitors in parallel, which may still be charged. To avoid electric shock, discharge the capacitors using the external terminals before decommissioning.
  • Page 27: Regulatory Compliance

    Chapter 2 - Safety Information REGULATORY COMPLIANCE Compliance with the European Commission Directive on EMC and LVD is demonstrated using a technical file.

There is, however, a common methodology used across the entire product series to set these parameters. Some of the communications setup can only be carried out using the HMI, and cannot be carried out using settings applications software.
  • Page 38: Configuring Ip Addresses

    Chapter 4 - Configuration CONFIGURING IP ADDRESSES An IP address is a logical address assigned to devices in a computer network that uses the Internet Protocol (IP) for communication between nodes. IP addresses are stored as binary numbers but they are represented using Decimal Dot Notation, where four sets of decimal numbers are separated by dots as follows: XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX For example:...

  • Page 57: Setup

    Chapter 4 - Configuration Switch Manager is used to define IP addresses of GE switches. These addresses must be in the range of the system IP, depending on the IP mask of the engineering PC for substation maintenance. GE switches have a default multicast so the 3rd word of the IP address is always 254.

  • Page 64: Redundant Ethernet Communication

    Chapter 5 - Operation REDUNDANT ETHERNET COMMUNICATION Redundancy is transparent backup. It is required where a single point of failure cannot be tolerated, and required in critical applications such as substation automation. Redundancy acts as an insurance policy, providing an alternative route if one route fails.
  • Page 65: Redundancy Protocols

    PRP provides "bumpless" redundancy. RSTP is also an open standard, so its implementation is compatible with any standard RSTP devices. RSTP provides redundancy, however, it is not "bumpless". SHP and DHP are proprietary protocols intended for use with specific GE products: SHP is compatible with the C264-SWR212 as well as H35x multimode switches.
  • Page 66: Network Elements

    There are two ways of handling this: Duplicate Accept and Duplicate Discard. The GE RedBox is the H382 switch. This is compatible with any other vendor's PRP device. HIGH-AVAILABILITY SEAMLESS REDUNDANCY (HSR) HSR is standardized in IEC 62439-3 (clause 5) for use in ring topology networks.
  • Page 67: Hsr Multicast Topology

    Chapter 5 - Operation 3.2.1 HSR MULTICAST TOPOLOGY When a DANH is sending a multicast frame, the frame (C frame) is duplicated (A frame and B frame), and each duplicate frame A/B is tagged with the destination MAC address and the sequence number. The frames A and B differ only in their sequence number, which is used to identify one frame from the other.

  • Page 70: Self-Healing Protocol (Shp)

    SELF-HEALING PROTOCOL (SHP) Unlike RSTP, the GE SHP solution responds to the constraints of critical time applications such as the GOOSE messaging of IEC 61850. SHP in MiCOM Px4x is fully compatible with SHP used in the MiCOM C264 and MiCOM H series of switches that are components of the PACiS Substation Automation System.

    If one link is down, the frame is sent through the link, received by the device, and passed to upper layers for processing. GE’s DHM fulfils automation requirements by delivering a very fast recovery time for the entire network (less than 1 ms).
