2.3 NOMENCLATURE

Due to the technical nature of this manual, many special terms, abbreviations and acronyms are used throughout the manual. Some of these terms are well-known industry-specific terms while others may be special product­specific terms used by General Electric. The first instance of any acronym or term used in a particular chapter is explained. In addition, a separate glossary is available on the General Electric website, or from the General Electric contact centre.
We would like to highlight the following changes of nomenclature however:
The word 'relay' is no longer used to describe the device itself. Instead, the device is referred to as the 'IED'
(Intelligent Electronic Device), the 'device', or the 'product'. The word 'relay' is used purely to describe the electromechanical components within the device, i.e. the output relays.
British English is used throughout this manual.
The British term 'Earth' is used in favour of the American term 'Ground'.
2.4
The device has undergone a range of extensive testing and certification processes to ensure and prove compatibility with all target markets. A detailed description of these criteria can be found in the Technical Specifications chapter.

3 PRODUCT SCOPE

The P543 and P545 devices have been designed for current differential protection of overhead line and cable applications. Version M85 of P543 and P545 have been designed for both solidly grounded systems and Petersen Coil grounded systems. The products within this range interface readily with the longitudinal (end-end) communications channel between line terminals. The P543 and P545 devices are for single circuit breaker applications.
The devices include high-speed current differential unit protection with optional high performance sub-cycle distance protection, including phase segregated aided directional earth fault protection as well as in-zone transformer differential protection and 4-shot phase-segregated Autoreclose protection. The P545 provides more I/O and is housed in a larger case than the P543. The differences between the model variants are summarised in the table below:
Feature/Variant P543 model A P543 model S P545 model A P545 model N P545 model S
Number of CT Inputs 5 5 5 5 5 Number of VT inputs 4 4 4 4 4 Opto-coupled digital inputs 16 16 24 32 24 Standard relay output contacts 14 7 32 32 16 High speed high break output contacts 4 8
The M85 version of these devices provide additional functionality, which allow them to be used for cross-country faults in Petersen Coil earthed systems. To supplement this requirement, in addition it provides transient earth fault detection, a sixth protection zone, enhanced power swing detection functionality and a VT input for measuring the neutral voltage.

4.3
The information in this section is applicable only to equipment carrying UL/CSA/CUL markings.

UL/CSA/CUL REQUIREMENTS

Caution: Equipment intended for rack or panel mounting is for use on a flat surface of a Type 1 enclosure, as defined by Underwriters Laboratories (UL).
Caution: To maintain compliance with UL and CSA/CUL, install the equipment using UL/CSA­recognised parts for: cables, protective fuses, fuse holders and circuit breakers, insulation crimp terminals, and replacement internal batteries.

4.4 FUSING REQUIREMENTS

Caution: Where UL/CSA listing of the equipment is required for external fuse protection, a UL or CSA Listed fuse must be used for the auxiliary supply. The listed protective fuse type is: Class J time delay fuse, with a maximum current rating of 15 A and a minimum DC rating of 250 V dc (for example type AJT15).
Caution: Where UL/CSA listing of the equipment is not required, a high rupture capacity (HRC) fuse type with a maximum current rating of 16 Amps and a minimum dc rating of 250 V dc may be used for the auxiliary supply (for example Red Spot type NIT or TIA). For P50 models, use a 1A maximum T-type fuse. For P60 models, use a 4A maximum T-type fuse.
P54x1i-TM-EN-1 21
Page 58
Chapter 2 - Safety Information P543i/P545i
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

4.5 EQUIPMENT CONNECTIONS

Warning: Terminals exposed during installation, commissioning and maintenance may present a hazardous voltage unless the equipment is electrically isolated.
Caution: Tighten M4 clamping screws of heavy duty terminal block connectors to a nominal torque of 1.3 Nm. Tighten captive screws of terminal blocks to 0.5 Nm minimum and 0.6 Nm maximum.
Caution: Always use insulated crimp terminations for voltage and current connections.
Caution: Always use the correct crimp terminal and tool according to the wire size.
Caution: Watchdog (self-monitoring) contacts are provided to indicate the health of the device on some products. We strongly recommend that you hard wire these contacts into the substation's automation system, for alarm purposes.

4.6 PROTECTION CLASS 1 EQUIPMENT REQUIREMENTS

Caution: Earth the equipment with the supplied PCT (Protective Conductor Terminal).
Caution: Do not remove the PCT.
Caution: The PCT is sometimes used to terminate cable screens. Always check the PCT’s integrity after adding or removing such earth connections.
22 P54x1i-TM-EN-1
Page 59
P543i/P545i 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). This may be superseded by local or country wiring regulations. For P60 products, the recommended minimum PCT wire size is 6 mm². See product documentation for details.
Caution: The PCT connection must have low-inductance and be as short as possible.
Caution: All connections to the equipment must have a defined potential. Connections that are pre-wired, but not used, should be earthed, or connected to a common grouped potential.

4.7 PRE-ENERGISATION CHECKLIST

Caution: Check voltage rating/polarity (rating label/equipment documentation).
Caution: Check CT circuit rating (rating label) and integrity of connections.
Caution: Check protective fuse or miniature circuit breaker (MCB) rating.
Caution: Check integrity of the PCT connection.
Caution: Check voltage and current rating of external wiring, ensuring it is appropriate for the application.

4.8 PERIPHERAL CIRCUITRY

Warning: Do not open the secondary circuit of a live CT since the high voltage produced may be lethal to personnel and could damage insulation. Short the secondary of the line CT before opening any connections to it.
P54x1i-TM-EN-1 23
Page 60
Chapter 2 - Safety Information P543i/P545i
Note: For most Alstom 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.
Caution: Where external components such as resistors or voltage dependent resistors (VDRs) are used, these may present a risk of electric shock or burns if touched.
Warning: Take extreme care when using external test blocks and test plugs such as the MMLG, MMLB and P990, as hazardous voltages may be exposed. Ensure that CT shorting links are in place before removing test plugs, to avoid potentially lethal voltages.

4.9 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. Take care when inserting or removing modules into or out of the IED.

The Main processor module consisting of the main CPU (Central Processing Unit), memory and an interface
to the front panel HMI (Human Machine Interface)
A selection of plug-in boards and modules with presentation at the rear for the power supply,
communication functions, digital I/O, analogue inputs, and time synchronisation connectivity
All boards and modules are connected by a parallel data and address bus, which allows the processor module to send and receive information to and from the other modules as required. There is also a separate serial data bus for conveying sampled data from the input module to the CPU. These parallel and serial databuses are shown as a single interconnection module in the following figure, which shows typical modules and the flow of data between them.

3 MECHANICAL IMPLEMENTATION

All products based on the Px4x platform have common hardware architecture. The hardware is modular and consists of the following main parts:
Case and terminal blocks
Boards and modules
Front panel
The case comprises the housing metalwork and terminal blocks at the rear. The boards fasten into the terminal blocks and are connected together by a ribbon cable. This ribbon cable connects to the processor in the front panel.
The following diagram shows an exploded view of a typical product. The diagram shown does not necessarily represent exactly the product model described in this manual.
Figure 6: Exploded view of IED
3.1
The Px4x range of products are implemented in a range of case sizes. Case dimensions for industrial products usually follow modular measurement units based on rack sizes. These are: U for height and TE for width, where:
1U = 1.75 inches = 44.45 mm
1TE = 0.2 inches = 5.08 mm
The products are available in panel-mount or standalone versions. All products are nominally 4U high. This equates to 177.8 mm or 7 inches.
The cases are pre-finished steel with a conductive covering of aluminium and zinc. This provides good grounding at all joints, providing a low resistance path to earth that is essential for performance in the presence of external noise.
The case width depends on the product type and its hardware options. There are three different case widths for the described range of products: 40TE, 60TE and 80TE. The case dimensions and compatibility criteria are as follows:

4 FRONT PANEL

4.1 FRONT PANEL

Depending on the exact model and chosen options, the product will be housed in either a 40TE, 60TE or 80TE case. By way of example, the following diagram shows the front panel of a typical 60TE unit. The front panels of the products based on 40TE and 80TE cases have a lot of commonality and differ only in the number of hotkeys and user-programmable LEDs. The hinged covers at the top and bottom of the front panel are shown open. An optional transparent front cover physically protects the front panel.
Figure 7: Front panel (60TE)
The front panel consists of:
Top and bottom compartments with hinged cover
LCD display
Keypad
9 pin D-type serial port
25 pin D-type parallel port
Fixed function LEDs
Function keys and LEDs (60TE and 80TE models)
Programmable LEDs (60TE and 80TE models)

Chapter 3 - Hardware Design P543i/P545i
The bottom compartment contains:
A compartment for a 1/2 AA size backup battery (used to back up the real time clock and event, fault, and
disturbance records).
A 9-pin female D-type front port for an EIA(RS)232 serial connection to a PC.
A 25-pin female D-type parallel port for monitoring internal signals and downloading software and
language text.
4.1.2 KEYPAD
The keypad consists of the following keys:
4 arrow keys to navigate the menus (organised around the Enter key)
An enter key for executing the chosen option
A clear key for clearing the last command
A read key for viewing larger blocks of text (arrow keys now used for scrolling)
2 hot keys for scrolling through the default display and for control of setting groups. These are situated directly below the LCD display.
4.1.2.1 LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY
The LCD is a high resolution monochrome display with 16 characters by 3 lines and controllable back light.
4.1.3
FRONT SERIAL PORT (SK1)
The front serial port is a 9-pin female D-type connector, providing RS232 serial data communication. It is situated under the bottom hinged cover, and is used to communicate with a locally connected PC. It is used to transfer settings data between the PC and the IED.
The port is intended for temporary connection during testing, installation and commissioning. It is not intended to be used for permanent SCADA communications. This port supports the Courier communication protocol only. Courier is a proprietary communication protocol to allow communication with a range of protection equipment, and between the device and the Windows-based support software package.
This port can be considered as a DCE (Data Communication Equipment) port, so you can connect this port device to a PC with an EIA(RS)232 serial cable up to 15 m in length.
The inactivity timer for the front port is set to 15 minutes. This controls how long the unit maintains its level of password access on the front port. If no messages are received on the front port for 15 minutes, any password access level that has been enabled is cancelled.
38 P54x1i-TM-EN-1
Page 75
P543i/P545i Chapter 3 - Hardware Design
Note: The front serial port does not support automatic extraction of event and disturbance records, although this data can be accessed manually.
4.1.3.1 FRONT SERIAL PORT (SK1) CONNECTIONS
The port pin-out follows the standard for Data Communication Equipment (DCE) device with the following pin connections on a 9-pin connector.
Pin number Description
2 Tx Transmit data 3 Rx Receive data 5 0 V Zero volts common
You must use the correct serial cable, or the communication will not work. A straight-through serial cable is required, connecting pin 2 to pin 2, pin 3 to pin 3, and pin 5 to pin 5.
Once the physical connection from the unit to the PC is made, the PC’s communication settings must be set to match those of the IED. The following table shows the unit’s communication settings for the front port.
Protocol Courier
Baud rate 19,200 bps Courier address 1 Message format 11 bit - 1 start bit, 8 data bits, 1 parity bit (even parity), 1 stop bit
4.1.4 FRONT PARALLEL PORT (SK2)
The front parallel port uses a 25 pin D-type connector. It is used for commissioning, downloading firmware updates and menu text editing.
4.1.5
Four fixed-function LEDs on the left-hand side of the front panel indicate the following conditions.
Trip (Red) switches ON when the IED issues a trip signal. It is reset when the associated fault record is
Alarm (Yellow) flashes when the IED registers an alarm. This may be triggered by a fault, event or
Out of service (Yellow) is ON when the IED's functions are unavailable.

the unit’s self-tests show there is an error in the hardware or software. The state of the healthy LED is reflected by the watchdog contacts at the back of the unit.
4.1.6
FUNCTION KEYS
The programmable function keys are available for custom use for some models. Factory default settings associate specific functions to these keys, but by using programmable scheme logic, you
can change the default functions of these keys to fit specific needs. Adjacent to these function keys are programmable LEDs, which are usually set to be associated with their respective function keys.
P54x1i-TM-EN-1 39

Chapter 3 - Hardware Design P543i/P545i
4.1.7 PROGRAMABLE LEDS
The device has a number of programmable LEDs, which can be associated with PSL-generated signals. The programmable LEDs for most models are tri-colour and can be set to RED, YELLOW or GREEN. However the programmable LEDs for some models are single-colour (red) only. The single-colour LEDs can be recognised by virtue of the fact they are large and slightly oval, whereas the tri-colour LEDs are small and round.

5 REAR PANEL

The MiCOM Px40 series uses a modular construction. Most of the internal workings are on boards and modules which fit into slots. Some of the boards plug into terminal blocks, which are bolted onto the rear of the unit. However, some boards such as the communications boards have their own connectors. The rear panel consists of these terminal blocks plus the rears of the communications boards.
The back panel cut-outs and slot allocations vary. This depends on the product, the type of boards and the terminal blocks needed to populate the case. The following diagram shows a typical rear view of a case populated with various boards.
Figure 8: Rear view of populated case
Note: This diagram is just an example and may not show the exact product described in this manual. It also does not show the full range of available boards, just a typical arrangement.
Not all slots are the same size. The slot width depends on the type of board or terminal block. For example, HD (heavy duty) terminal blocks, as required for the analogue inputs, require a wider slot size than MD (medium duty) terminal blocks. The board positions are not generally interchangeable. Each slot is designed to house a particular type of board. Again this is model-dependent.
The device may use one or more of the terminal block types shown in the following diagram. The terminal blocks are fastened to the rear panel with screws.
Heavy duty (HD) terminal blocks for CT and VT circuits
Medium duty (MD) terminal blocks for the power supply, opto-inputs, relay outputs and rear
communications port
MiDOS terminal blocks for CT and VT circuits
RTD/CLIO terminal block for connection to analogue transducers

6 BOARDS AND MODULES

Each product comprises a selection of PCBs (Printed Circuit Boards) and subassemblies, depending on the chosen configuration.

6.1 PCBS

A PCB typically consists of the components, a front connector for connecting into the main system parallel bus via a ribbon cable, and an interface to the rear. This rear interface may be:
Directly presented to the outside world (as is the case for communication boards such as Ethernet Boards)
Presented to a connector, which in turn connects into a terminal block bolted onto the rear of the case (as is
the case for most of the other board types)
Figure 10: Rear connection to terminal block
6.2
A sub-assembly consists of two or more boards bolted together with spacers and connected with electrical connectors. It may also have other special requirements such as being encased in a metal housing for shielding against electromagnetic radiation.
Boards are designated by a part number beginning with ZN, whereas pre-assembled sub-assemblies are designated with a part number beginning with GN. Sub-assemblies, which are put together at the production stage, do not have a separate part number.
P54x1i-TM-EN-1 43

SUBASSEMBLIES

Page 80
Chapter 3 - Hardware Design P543i/P545i
The products in the Px40 series typically contain two sub-assemblies:
The power supply assembly comprising:A power supply boardAn output relay board
The input module comprising:One or more transformer boards, which contains the voltage and current transformers (partially or
fully populated)
One or more input boardsMetal protective covers for EM (electromagnetic) shielding
The input module is pre-assembled and is therefore assigned a GN number, whereas the power supply module is assembled at production stage and does not therefore have an individual part number.
6.3
Figure 11: Main processor board
The main processor board performs all calculations and controls the operation of all other modules in the IED, including the data communication and user interfaces. This is the only board that does not fit into one of the slots. It resides in the front panel and connects to the rest of the system using an internal ribbon cable.
The LCD and LEDs are mounted on the processor board along with the front panel communication ports.

MAIN PROCESSOR BOARD

The memory on the main processor board is split into two categories: volatile and non-volatile. The volatile memory is fast access SRAM, used by the processor to run the software and store data during calculations. The non-volatile memory is sub-divided into two groups:
Flash memory to store software code, text and configuration data including the present setting values.
Battery-backed SRAM to store disturbance, event, fault and maintenance record data.
There are two board types available depending on the size of the case:
For models in 40TE cases
For models in 60TE cases and larger

P543i/P545i Chapter 3 - Hardware Design

6.4 POWER SUPPLY BOARD

Figure 12: Power supply board
The power supply board provides power to the unit. One of three different configurations of the power supply board can be fitted to the unit. This is specified at the time of order and depends on the magnitude of the supply voltage that will be connected to it.
There are three board types, which support the following voltage ranges:
24/54 V DC
48/125 V DC or 40-100V AC
110/250 V DC or 100-240V AC
The power supply board connector plugs into a medium duty terminal block. This terminal block is always positioned on the right hand side of the unit looking from the rear.
The power supply board is usually assembled together with a relay output board to form a complete subassembly, as shown in the following diagram.
P54x1i-TM-EN-1 45
Page 82
Chapter 3 - Hardware Design P543i/P545i
Figure 13: Power supply assembly
The power supply outputs are used to provide isolated power supply rails to the various modules within the unit. Three voltage levels are used by the unit’s modules:
5.1 V for all of the digital circuits
+/- 16 V for the analogue electronics such as on the input board
22 V for driving the output relay coils.
All power supply voltages, including the 0 V earth line, are distributed around the unit by the 64-way ribbon cable. The power supply board incorporates inrush current limiting. This limits the peak inrush current to approximately
10 A. Power is applied to pins 1 and 2 of the terminal block, where pin 1 is negative and pin 2 is positive. The pin
numbers are clearly marked on the terminal block as shown in the following diagram.
46 P54x1i-TM-EN-1
Page 83
P543i/P545i Chapter 3 - Hardware Design
Figure 14: Power supply terminals
6.4.1
The Watchdog contacts are also hosted on the power supply board. The Watchdog facility provides two output relay contacts, one normally open and one normally closed. These are used to indicate the health of the device and are driven by the main processor board, which continually monitors the hardware and software when the device is in service.

Chapter 3 - Hardware Design P543i/P545i
Figure 15: Watchdog contact terminals
6.4.2
The rear serial port (RP1) is housed on the power supply board. This is a three-terminal EIA(RS)485 serial communications port and is intended for use with a permanently wired connection to a remote control centre for SCADA communication. The interface supports half-duplex communication and provides optical isolation for the serial data being transmitted and received.
The physical connectivity is achieved using three screw terminals; two for the signal connection, and the third for the earth shield of the cable. These are located on pins 16, 17 and 18 of the power supply terminal block, which is on the far right looking from the rear. The interface can be selected between RS485 and K-bus. When the K-Bus option is selected, the two signal connections are not polarity conscious.
The polarity independent K-bus can only be used for the Courier data protocol. The polarity conscious MODBUS, IEC 60870-5-103 and DNP3.0 protocols need RS485.
The following diagram shows the rear serial port. The pin assignments are as follows:
Pin 16: Earth shield
Pin 17: Negative signal
Pin 18: Positive signal

Figure 17: Input module - 1 transformer board

INPUT MODULE - 1 TRANSFORMER BOARD

The input module consists of the main input board coupled together with an instrument transformer board. The instrument transformer board contains the voltage and current transformers, which isolate and scale the analogue input signals delivered by the system transformers. The input board contains the A/D conversion and digital processing circuitry, as well as eight digital isolated inputs (opto-inputs).
The boards are connected together physically and electrically. The module is encased in a metal housing for shielding against electromagnetic interference.

6.5.1 INPUT MODULE CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
Figure 18: Input module schematic
A/D Conversion
The differential analogue inputs from the CT and VT transformers are presented to the main input board as shown. Each differential input is first converted to a single input quantity referenced to the input board’s earth potential. The analogue inputs are sampled and converted to digital, then filtered to remove unwanted properties. The samples are then passed through a serial interface module which outputs data on the serial sample data bus.
The calibration coefficients are stored in non-volatile memory. These are used by the processor board to correct for any amplitude or phase errors introduced by the transformers and analogue circuitry.
Opto-isolated inputs
The other function of the input board is to read in the state of the digital inputs. As with the analogue inputs, the digital inputs must be electrically isolated from the power system. This is achieved by means of the 8 on-board optical isolators for connection of up to 8 digital signals. The digital signals are passed through an optional noise filter before being buffered and presented to the unit’s processing boards in the form of a parallel data bus.
This selectable filtering allows the use of a pre-set filter of ½ cycle which renders the input immune to induced power-system noise on the wiring. Although this method is secure it can be slow, particularly for inter-tripping. This can be improved by switching off the ½ cycle filter, in which case one of the following methods to reduce ac noise should be considered.
Use double pole switching on the input
Use screened twisted cable on the input circuit
50 P54x1i-TM-EN-1
Page 87
P543i/P545i Chapter 3 - Hardware Design
The opto-isolated logic inputs can be configured for the nominal battery voltage of the circuit for which they are a part, allowing different voltages for different circuits such as signalling and tripping.
Note: The opto-input circuitry can be provided without the A/D circuitry as a separate board, which can provide supplementary opto-inputs.
6.5.2 TRANSFORMER BOARD
Figure 19: Transformer board
The transformer board hosts the current and voltage transformers. These are used to step down the currents and voltages originating from the power systems' current and voltage transformers to levels that can be used by the devices' electronic circuitry. In addition to this, the on-board CT and VT transformers provide electrical isolation between the unit and the power system.
The transformer board is connected physically and electrically to the input board to form a complete input module. For terminal connections, please refer to the wiring diagrams.

6.5.3 INPUT BOARD
Figure 20: Input board
The input board is used to convert the analogue signals delivered by the current and voltage transformers into digital quantities used by the IED. This input board also has on-board opto-input circuitry, providing eight optically­isolated digital inputs and associated noise filtering and buffering. These opto-inputs are presented to the user by means of a MD terminal block, which sits adjacent to the analogue inputs HD terminal block.
The input board is connected physically and electrically to the transformer board to form a complete input module. The terminal numbers of the opto-inputs are as follows:
Terminal Number Opto-input

6.6 STANDARD OUTPUT RELAY BOARD

Figure 21: Standard output relay board - 8 contacts
This output relay board has 8 relays with 6 Normally Open contacts and 2 Changeover contacts. The output relay board is provided together with the power supply board as a complete assembly, or
independently for the purposes of relay output expansion. There are two cut-out locations in the board. These can be removed to allow power supply components to
protrude when coupling the output relay board to the power supply board. If the output relay board is to be used independently, these cut-out locations remain intact.
The terminal numbers are as follows:

6.7 IRIG-B BOARD

Figure 22: IRIG-B board
The IRIG-B board can be fitted to provide an accurate timing reference for the device. The IRIG-B signal is connected to the board via a BNC connector. The timing information is used to synchronise the IED's internal real­time clock to an accuracy of 1 ms. The internal clock is then used for time tagging events, fault, maintenance and disturbance records.
IRIG-B interface is available in modulated or demodulated formats. The IRIG-B facility is provided in combination with other functionality on a number of additional boards, such as:
Fibre board with IRIG-B
Second rear communications board with IRIG-B
Ethernet board with IRIG-B
Redundant Ethernet board with IRIG-B
There are two types of each of these boards; one type which accepts a modulated IRIG-B input and one type which accepts a demodulated IRIG-B input.

Figure 23: Fibre optic board
This board provides an interface for communicating with a master station. This communication link can use all compatible protocols (Courier, IEC 60870-5-103, MODBUS and DNP 3.0). It is a fibre-optic alternative to the metallic RS485 port presented on the power supply terminal block. The metallic and fibre optic ports are mutually exclusive.
The fibre optic port uses BFOC 2.5 ST connectors. The board comes in two varieties; one with an IRIG-B input and one without:

6.9 REAR COMMUNICATION BOARD

Figure 24: Rear communication board
The optional communications board containing the secondary communication ports provide two serial interfaces presented on 9 pin D-type connectors. These interfaces are known as SK4 and SK5. Both connectors are female connectors, but are configured as DTE ports. This means pin 2 is used to transmit information and pin 3 to receive.
SK4 can be used with RS232, RS485 and K-bus. SK5 can only be used with RS232 and is used for electrical teleprotection. The optional rear communications board and IRIG-B board are mutually exclusive since they use the same hardware slot. However, the board comes in two varieties; one with an IRIG-B input and one without.

P543i/P545i Chapter 3 - Hardware Design
This is a communications board that provides a standard 100-Base Ethernet interface. This board supports one electrical copper connection and one fibre-pair connection.
There are several variants for this board as follows:
100 Mbps Ethernet board
100 Mbps Ethernet with on-board modulated IRIG-B input
100 Mbps Ethernet with on-board unmodulated IRIG-B input
Two of the variants provide an IRIG-B interface. IRIG-B provides a timing reference for the unit – one board for modulated IRIG-B and one for demodulated. The IRIG B signal is connected to the board with a BNC connector.

6.11 REDUNDANT ETHERNET BOARD

Figure 26: Redundant Ethernet board
This board provides dual redundant Ethernet (supported by two fibre pairs) together with an IRIG-B interface for timing.
Different board variants are available, depending on the redundancy protocol and the type of IRIG-B signal (unmodulated or modulated). The available redundancy protocols are:
SHP (Self healing Protocol)
RSTP (Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol)
DHP (Dual Homing Protocol)
PRP (Parallel Redundancy Protocol)
There are several variants for this board as follows:
100 Mbps redundant Ethernet running RSTP, with on-board modulated IRIG-B
100 Mbps redundant Ethernet running RSTP, with on-board unmodulated IRIG-B
100 Mbps redundant Ethernet running SHP, with on-board modulated IRIG-B
100 Mbps redundant Ethernet running SHP, with on-board unmodulated IRIG-B
100 Mbps redundant Ethernet running DHP, with on-board modulated IRIG-B
100 Mbps redundant Ethernet running DHP, with on-board unmodulated IRIG-B
100 Mbps redundant Ethernet running PRP, with on-board modulated IRIG-B
100 Mbps redundant Ethernet running PRP, with on-board demodulated IRIG-B
The Ethernet and other connection details are described below:

6.12 COPROCESSOR BOARD

Figure 27: Fully populated Coprocessor board
Note: The above figure shows a coprocessor complete with GPS input and 2 fibre-optic serial data interfaces, and is not necessarily representative of the product and model described in this manual. These interfaces will not be present on boards that do not require them.
Where applicable, a second processor board is used to process the special algorithms associated with the device. This second processor board provides fast access (zero wait state) SRAM for use with both program and data memory storage. This memory can be accessed by the main processor board via the parallel bus. This is how the software is transferred from the flash memory on the main processor board to the coprocessor board on power up. Further communication between the two processor boards is achieved via interrupts and the shared SRAM. The serial bus carrying the sample data is also connected to the co-processor board, using the processor’s built-in serial port, as on the main processor board.
There are several different variants of this board, which can be chosen depending on the exact device and model. The variants are:
Coprocessor board with current differential inputs and GPS input
Coprocessor board with current differential inputs only
Coprocessor board with GPS input only
6.12.1
CURRENT DIFFERENTIAL INPUTS
Where applicable, the coprocessor board can be equipped with up to two daughter boards, each containing a fibre-optic interface for a serial data link. BFOC 2.5 ST connectors are used for this purpose. One or two channels are provided, each channel comprising a fibre pair for transmitting and receiving (Rx Tx). These channels are labelled Ch1 and Ch2. These serial data links are used to transfer information between two or three IEDs for current differential applications.
6.12.2
In some applications, where the communication links between two remote devices are provided by a third party telecommunications partner, the transmit and receive paths associated with one channel may differ considerably in length, resulting in very different transmission and receive times.

P543i/P545i Chapter 3 - Hardware Design
If, for example, Device A is transmitting to Device B information about the value of its measured current, the information Device A is receiving from Device B about the current measured at the same time, may reach device B at a different time. This has to be compensated for. A 1pps GPS timing signal applied to both devices will help the IEDs achieve this, because it is possible to measure the exact time taken for both transmission and receive paths.
Note: The 1 pps signal is always supplied by a GPS receiver (such as a P594).
Note: This signal is used to control the sampling process, and timing calculations and is not used for time stamping or real time synchronisation.
