1 Introduction

General This product manual (Select Code 157-005-102) describes the

J85568E-1 Secondary DC Distribution Mini-Bay. This unit is
also known as a Mini-Battery Distribution Fuse Bay
(Mini-BDFB) or Mini-Battery Distribution Circuit Breaker Bay
(Mini-BDCBB). Complementing the 7-foot, 9-foot and
11.5-foot J85568C-1 series of DC Power Distribution Bays, the
Mini-BDFB/BDCBB is a fully assembled rack-mountable unit
that distributes -48 volt dc power in a two-load (A/B)
arrangement.

Additional Information

The Mini-Distribution Bay is a secondary fuse distribution
center for dc power delivered from a central office battery plant
to the using equipment. When floor space is minimized, the
Mini-Bay provides a cost-effective solution for distributing
power without sacrificing reliability or features. It is ideal for a
small central office or customer premise power system
application. It is also well suited for power transition or
modernization projects or for satisfying co-location
requirements for RBOCs to provide dc power access to
Inter-Exchange Carriers (IXCs).
Additional copies of this manual or any other Lineage Power
document may be obtained by calling Lineage Power Customer
Service. Specify the code number for manuals or the drawing
numbers for drawings.

2 Product Description

Overview The J85568E-1 Mini-Distribution Bay (Power Distribution Bay)

distributes -48Vdc power in a two-load arrangement, with a
300-ampere capacity per load. There are four fuse or circuit
breaker panel positions. Load Bus A connects the top two fuse
or circuit breaker panels. Load Bus B connects the bottom two
fuse or circuit breaker panels. All panel positions must be
equipped with either a fuse or circuit breaker panel or a blank
panel. Each fuse panel is equipped with twelve fuse blocks for
0-60A fuses. Each circuit breaker panel has 12 empty positions
for up to 12 circuit breakers.
This Mini-Distribution Bay is designed to mount in a 23-inch
relay rack. See Figure 2-1. It can also be factory installed in an
ED8C800-50
7′ framework. See Figure 2-2. If the Mini-Distribution Bay is
installed in a 7′ framework that will be located in a 9′ or 11′-6″
environment, bay extenders are available. Ordering information
for the extenders is given in Section 3. Note: Do not mount
Mini-Distribution Bay onto bay extenders. Other equipment
can be added to this framework, which saves valuable floor
space.
The Mini-Distribution Bay offers the same fusing and alarm
monitoring features as the J85568C-series distribution bay, but
in a more compact design. It provides another Lineage Power
alternative to secondary distribution requirements.

4 - 4 Safety Issue 6 January 2008
J85568E-1 Secondary DC Mini-Distribution Bay

Electrostatic Discharge (ESD)

Assume all circuit packs containing electronic
(solid-state) components can be damaged by ESD.
When handling circuit packs (storing, inserting,
removing, etc.) or when working on the backplane, always use the appropriate grounding procedure: either a wrist strap connected to ground or, when standing, a heel strap with a grounded dissipative floor mat.
A grounded person must never hand an unprotected
circuit pack to an ungrounded person. A static discharge from the ungrounded person through the circuit pack to the grounded person could cause an electrostatic discharge failure. All persons and equipment at a work location must be at the same common ground potential to be static safe.
Handle all circuit packs by the faceplate or latch and by
the top and bottom outermost edges. Never touch the components, conductors, or connector pins.
Do not rub or wipe circuit packs to clean them unless
you and the circuit pack are at the same ground potential.
Observe warning labels on bags and cartons. Whenever
possible, do not remove circuit packs from antistatic bags or cartons until ready to insert into the equipment. Otherwise, open all circuit packs at a static-safe work position with wrist straps and dissipative table mats.
Upon removal from the equipment, immediately put
circuit packs into antistatic packages. Always store and transport circuit packs in antistatic packaging. Shielding is not required unless specified.
Keep all static-generating materials away from all
circuit packs. These materials include common plastics such as food wrappers, clear plastic bags, styrofoam containers, packing material, drinking cups, notebooks, and nonconductive plastic solder suckers. The insulation on small hand tools does not represent a static hazard.
Keep adhesive tape (Scotch, masking, etc.) away from
static-sensitive devices.
When soldering static-sensitive semiconductor devices,
the soldering iron must be grounded to the work table, which must also be earth grounded.
Whenever possible, maintain relative humidity above
the 20-percent level.
Minimize electrostatic discharge when handling circuit
modules.

List 2 is configured with two load buses. A 300-ampere shunt and bus bar assembly connects Load Bus A to the top two fuse or circuit breaker panels and Load Bus B to the bottom two fuse panels. Panel positions 1 and 3 must be equipped with List C fuse panels or List D circuit breaker panels. Panel positions 2 and 4 may be equipped with either a List B blank panel, a List C fuse panel, or a List D circuit breaker panel.
Figure 5-3 shows a rear view of the Mini-Distribution Bay and the A/B load connections.
Cabling from the battery plant is terminated to each load on a single set of 3/8-inch studs on 1.00-inch centers that are located on the top right of the unit. If more than one cable is required due to voltage drop considerations, terminal lugs may be mounted back-to-back.
(A minimum of two 350 MCM battery input/return cables is recommended per 300 ampere load.)
The Mini-Distribution Bay is equipped with a distribution return bus located along the left and bottom sides of the unit. The bus bar has a 600-ampere current carrying capacity and is equipped with 1/4-inch studs on 0.625-inch centers for terminating the (48) distribution return leads. There is also a set of 3/8-inch studs on 1.00-inch centers located at the top of this bus bar for terminating load return cabling from the battery plant and the central office ground connection (if required). If more than two cables are required, terminal lugs may be mounted back-to-back. Hardware for connecting the terminal lugs is furnished with the Mini-Distribution Bay. Refer to Table 3-B for the list of terminal lug options for load return cabling. Table 3-C lists the terminal lug options available for the distribution return cabling. If voltage drop considerations require distribution cable sizes larger than 2 gauge, the installer must gutter tap down to 2 gauge before connection in the unit. Recommended torque values for terminating distribution cabling is 75 inch/lbs.
Note
All bus bars used in this product are copper with a solder plate finish. Bus bars do not require buffing or the application of no-ox before connection of terminal lugs or other bus bars.

0.625-inch centers. Refer again to Table 3-C for recommended
terminal lugs for the frame ground connection. Hardware for connecting frame ground is furnished with the Mini-Distribution Bay.

Fuse or Circuit Breaker Panel

The List C fuse panel is shown in Figure 5-4A. Each panel is equipped with twelve fuse blocks for 3-60A fuses and an alarm circuit module. Fuse sizes and ordering comcodes are listed on a label on the front of the Mini-Distribution Bay. See Figure 5-5. Recommended alarm fuses are GMT .18A, comcode
402328926. The fuse block is UL listed and uses the WP-92461
List 100-110 series of fuses. These fuses offer a big advantage over other fuse types in that they are UL recognized to UL standard 198L “DC INDUSTRIAL FUSES” with a 170 Vdc, 100,000-ampere interrupt rating. These fuses also have color bands to indicate the amperage rating of the fuse.
The List D circuit breaker panel is shown in Figure 5-4B. Each circuit breaker panel has 12 circuit breaker positions and an alarm circuit module. Circuit breaker sizes and ordering comcodes are listed on a label on the front of the Mini-Distribution Bay. See Figure 5-5. The circuit breakers are sized from 3 to 100 amperes. They are UL listed. The circuit breakers are rated at 80Vdc with a 10,000A interrupt capacity.
There are labels on the front of the fuse or circuit breaker panel for stamping the type of equipment being powered and the fuse or circuit breaker size required. Distribution cabling is terminated to each fuse block or circuit breaker on a 1/4-inch stud. Table 3-D lists the recommended terminal lugs for fuse blocks. Table 3-E lists the recommended terminal lugs for circuit breakers. Hardware for connecting these lugs is furnished with the Mini-Distribution Bay. The recommended torque value is 75 inch/lbs.
The alarm circuit module, BEP1, consists of two circuits, one for monitoring power loss to the fuse or circuit breaker panel and the other monitoring for fuse or circuit breaker failures. Alarms are indicated by LEDs on the panel and by Form-C contact closures. A green LED illuminates to indicate power is present on the panel. If power is lost, the green LED extinguishes and a set of Form-C contacts operates. When a fuse or circuit breaker operates, a red LED illuminates on the panel and three sets of
5 - 6 Installation Issue 6 January 2008
J85568E-1 Secondary DC Mini-Distribution Bay
Form-C contacts operate. These alarm contacts are isolated and referenced as audible, visual, and remote fuse or circuit breaker alarms. These arbitrary references are provided as a suggested standard for connecting alarm monitoring equipment.
The signals from the four sets of Form-C contacts from each alarm module are connected via ribbon cables to an alarm termination board located at the top of the Mini-Distribution Bay. This termination board provides a convenient point for installation to connect alarm monitoring systems. Each set of contacts is a Form-C or transfer type, i.e., a combination of normally open (NO) and normally closed (NC) contacts with one side of each in common (C). Either a closure on alarm or an open on alarm might be required for the alarm monitoring equipment.

Meter and Alarm Termination Panel

The top panel on the Mini-Distribution Bay is a meter and alarm termination panel. It consists of a digital meter and A/B switch wired to the current monitoring shunts of each load and an alarm termination circuit board. The purpose of the alarm termination board is to provide an easy access point for the installer to connect alarm monitoring equipment to the Mini-Distribution Bay. The alarm termination board is shown in Figure 5-6. It contains four 12-position screw type terminal blocks for monitoring the four sets of Form-C contacts of each fuse or circuit breaker panel (three for fuse or circuit breaker failure and one for power loss). Each fuse or circuit breaker panel may be monitored individually by connecting alarms to each of the four terminal blocks. The left terminal block is connected to fuse or circuit breaker panel #1, the next to fuse or circuit breaker panel #2, the third to fuse or circuit breaker panel #3, and the right terminal block to fuse or circuit breaker panel #4. Alarm wiring is connected to the terminal block by simply stripping the wire, placing the wire in the terminal, and tightening the screw. The recommended wire size is 22-26 gauge.
There are twelve DIP switches between each terminal block. Each DIP switch is associated with a terminal block position and is factory set to the open position. If a frame alarm is needed, simply close the DIP switches associated with that alarm. See Table 5-A. Alarm monitoring equipment requires either a closure on alarm or an open on alarm. When a frame alarm is needed as one of the alarms, simply close the DIP switch settings according to Table 5-A. Alarm wiring is connected at P201 terminal block (C contact) and P204 terminal block (NO or NC contact). For example, if a frame fuse or circuit breaker alarm (visual) is required with closure on alarm, close positions 1 and 3 on switches SW2, SW4, and SW6. Then connect a pair of alarm wires to P201 pin 7 (C) and to P204 pin 9 (NO). It may be desirable to monitor for power loss to load A or B. Connect alarm wiring to pins 1 and either 2 or 3 (as required) of terminal block P201 or P202 to monitor load A. Connect a second pair of wires to either terminal block P203 or P204 to monitor load B. For a frame power loss alarm, set DIP switches and connect alarm wires as shown in Table 5-A.
A label depicting the equipment layout, terminal lug options, and alarm termination board designations is located on the clear cover on the back of the unit to assist installation personnel. See Figure 5-7.
