ABB | SACE Emax 2 System Interface Documents For correct use of Ekip Com communication modules, two documents are available in the ABB library: Document Description Guidelines with details for putting communication modules into 1SDH001140R0001 service. Table with the references of all the registers for the parameters, 1SDH001140R0001_CSI_Emax2 commands, measurements, etc.
1 - Zone Selectivity Description Zone Selectivity is an evolution of time selectivity (see chapter "2 - Selectivity between ABB SACE circuit- breakers"), in which a dialog is created between the trip units through input and output blocking signals: an active input blocking signal means that the circuit-breaker must remain closed.
2 - Load control General description Load control is possible through the Ekip Power Controller, which is a new patented ABB function, available only on SACE Emax 2 circuit-breakers equipped with any Ekip LCD or Touch (including Hi-, G, and G Hi- trip units).
“Generator protections: Ekip G trip unit for SACE Emax 2”, which provides: • A list of the available protections and functions giving both the ABB name and the ANSI codes (example: protection RQ, with ANSI codes 40 and 32R). • For each protection, the fault conditions to which it is applied (example: for protection RQ, the inversion of the sign of the reactive power, positive if outgoing from the generator).
