    The InsulGard typically comes preconfigured in based on the configuration worksheet received from the customer at the time of order entry (see Appendix 3 – add link). Be sure that the Insulgard device is designated for this particular project and to be connected to this particular set of sensors. Switching InsulGard devices can require significant reprogramming of database software and InsulGard firmware settings and can lead to errors.

For a panel mount InsulGard, the Sensor Interface Board is installed on the panel under the Monitor. For sensor connections, it is necessary to temporarily remove the Monitor from the panel.

  • Page 7 InsulGard System Installation and Start Up Guideline A door mount InsulGard has the same wiring diagram as a panel mount, but without Din-Rail terminals. The power supply voltage is connected straight to the power input of the unit. Door mount InsulGard installed on switchgear compartment door usually has internal temperature and humidity sensors and doesn’t need external sensors.
  • Page 8 Eaton at the time of order entry. Settings can also be verified in InsulGard software: → section "Unit Settings" → "Settings for Channel".NOTE: It is important that the coupling capacitor installed on phase A is connected to Channel #1 to obtain phase reference for the InsulGard hardware and firmware.
  • Page 9 11) AC power connection and connection to relays, to RS485 and 4-20mA interfaces Use green plugs on the right side of the InsulGard (Figure 1-6 and 1-8). The green plugs can be wired when the InsulGard is not installed on its panel yet.

    Monitored object and InsulGard must be de-energized. The best way to de-energize InsulGard is to de-energize the incoming power supply line. On a panel mount InsulGard open the fuse located on the DIN-Rail. All sensors have default cable length of 65’ (20m). Custom lengths may be specified at the time of order entry.
  • Page 11 InsulGard System Installation and Start Up Guideline IPDS - Integrated Partial Discharge Sensors IPDS sensors are 80pF coupling capacitors (CC) with voltage ratings from 5kV to 38kV and special protection PCB board built in. For sensor installation: a) Sensor must be reliably grounded.
  • Page 12 Primary CT secondary winding. CTF is used if there is no metering CT in feeder termination compartment and corresponding metering CT is too far from the InsulGard. Install CTF around a feeder cable of any phase in a motor feeder termination enclosure. It must be installed over the shielded part of the feeder cable with cable shield grounding wire coming through the CT.
  • Page 13: Circuits Integrity Test

    1.3 Circuits integrity test 1) Check InsulGard Power Supply Voltage a) The voltage between Line and Neutral contacts of the Insulgard power input must be 115 or 230 VAC +/- 10% in accordance with voltage on InsulGard label. b) The voltage between Neutral and Ground contacts of the Insulgard power input must be near zero.

    1.5. InsulGard system installation for a switchgear line A Door mount InsulGard and two types of PD sensors (IPDS and RFCT) are typically used on switchgear lines. Door mount InsulGard is usually installed on a switchgear compartment door. See door cut out dimension for IG installation in Appendix 4.

Or devices assigned for different projects or for different locations for the same project could be switched. Verify that the proper Insulgard device has been installed. Commonly there is a sticker on an InsulGard face plate with name of the object and device address.

Calibration/Verification procedure Use GKI-2 pulse generator by Eaton to inject pulse in common mode between the HV conductor and ground using cable with alligator clips. If different pulse generator used, set the generator pulse parameters: Pulse Magnitude ~10 Volt, Pulse Width –...
  • Page 23 Figure 2-1 Calibration Verification steps 1. Switch the generator ON and run “Single Measurement” from Communications tab of the InsulGard software. A measurement time is proportional to the number of active channels and will take approximately 1.5 minutes for maximum 15 active channels.
