the circuit-breaker in an industrial remote supervision and control network.
It can be connected to an Ethernet network with an IEC 61850 communication protocol, and allows you to:
• Connect the trip units to the network, with dialog functionality.
• Command opening and closing of the circuit-breaker from remote.
• Provide information on the state of the circuit-breaker (open, closed, tripped).
• If mounted on a circuit-breaker in withdrawable version, detect the connected/disconnected position.
• Provide vertical communication (report) towards higher-level supervision systems (SCADA) with states and
measurements (re-transmitted whenever, and only if, they change with respect to the previous report).
• Provide horizontal communication (GOOSE output) towards other circuit-breakers (non-Emax 2, e.g.
medium voltage circuit-breakers), with all the information about state and measurements normally shared
by Emax 2 communication modules on busbars.
Remote opening and closing of the circuit-breaker can be performed only if the circuit-breaker is equipped
with an Ekip Com Actuator module (see page 243).
The configuration for the IEC 61850 protocol to assign the Technical Name, and, where necessary, to enable
the GOOSE (by setting the corresponding MAC addresses), is carried out by loading a configuration file in
the module. For further information, see the chapter "System Interface" on page 155, and in particular the
document 1SDH001140r0001
IMPORTANT: since the module allows control of the circuit-breaker and access to
the data contained in the trip unit, it can only be connected to networks that meet
all the necessary requirements for security and prevention of unauthorized access
(for example, the network of the control system of an installation). It is the installer's
responsibility to ensure that all the necessary security measures are adopted (for
example, firewalls, and so on). The module cannot be connected directly to the
Internet. Connection to dedicated Ethernet networks through the IEC 61850
communication protocol is recommended.
The following table shows the ports used by the module:
Ethertype Port
0x0800 - IP. 102
0x88B8. -
0x0800 - IP. 123 UDP
0x0800 - IP. 69 UDP
For applications in which a high network reliability is necessary, the module can be installed along with the
corresponding Redundant module.
The Redundant module is identical in terms of characteristics and installation, but its wiring is different from
the non-Redundant model.
IMPORTANT: on each circuit-breaker, only one Ekip Com IEC 61850, and only one
Ekip Com IEC 61850 Redundant can be installed.
The modules are always supplied with Ekip AUP and Ekip RTC contacts (see the chapter "16 - Other
accessories" on page 244).
