System architecture

The Entellisys™ Low-Voltage Switchgear architecture is unique. The central processor unit (CPU) is the basis of this new protection-and-control architecture. The CPU provides protection and control functions over the entire low-voltage switchgear system.

The key advantage of this architecture is that the CPU has all the information from all circuit breakers simultaneously. The architecture also has built in redundancy to increase system availability.

Figure 1-1 Entellisys LV Switchgear simplified architecture

1.1 Description of operation

Current transformers (CTs) and potential transformers (PTs) measure current and voltage and transmit the analog information to the EntelliGuard™. The Messenger digitizes and sends the information over the Messenger communication network to two redundant CPUs.

The CPUs make protection decisions, capture events, process waveform data, and provide status information. For example, if the CPUs identify a trip condition at a circuit breaker, the CPU alerts the EntelliGuard Messenger at that circuit breaker, which then actuates the circuit breaker and returns the circuit breaker status to the CPU.

Modbus® communication, an open industry standard protocol, is provided as an interface to external components such as the Entellisys HMI, SCADA, or other Building Automation Systems.

The Human Machine Interface (HMI) is the central user interface for the system. HMIs are touchscreen computers located in-gear or near-gear (see Touchscreen HMI on page 22) and Remote HMIs are available for desktop users who want to view the switchgear from their office.

Description of operation

11

Digital I/O is provided for customer-specific inputs and outputs. This equipment is resident in the 1 switchgear and is connected through the CPUs. Digital I/O and custom control schemes will run

in the CPUs if enabled.

In summary, Entellisys changes the protection paradigm from individual circuit protection to system protection.

CAUTION: Users that have been assigned Group Permissions by the System Administrator for features that allow the changing of settings and/or access to control functions must be established as qualified personnel only. See Chapter 4 in DEH-230, Entellisys Low Voltage Switchgear System Administrator Manual, for more information about programming user permissions. As a reminder, users with such privileges will be presented with the following screen upon initial login:

Figure 1-2 Initial login Caution screen

1.2 Switchgear installations

There are two primary installation methods in the switchgear:

Standard

Split-redundant

With standard installation, redundant components such as the CPUs, Messenger switches, and UPSs are installed together in the equipment. This method optimizes footprint and convenience of maintenance.

With split-redundant installation, redundant components such as the CPUs, Messenger switches, and UPSs are split-up with at least one switchgear stack separating them. This method optimizes system availability.

For more information, see DEH-237 Entellisys Low Voltage Switchgear Installation and

Maintenance Instruction Guide.

Following are brief descriptions of each component in the Entellisys system.

1.3.1 EntelliGuard circuit breaker

EntelliGuard low-voltage power circuit breakers control and protect power circuits up to 600 volts. They will safely switch loads and automatically clear circuits when abnormal conditions occur. These include short circuits, sustained overloads, ground faults, and other programmable conditions.

The EntelliGuard circuit breakers are available in 800 ampere, 1,600 ampere, 2,000 ampere, 3,200 ampere, 4,000 ampere, and 5,000 ampere frame sizes. These values represent the maximum continuous-current rating of each frame.

Circuit breakers may be equipped with a combination of accessories and interlocking devices.

Figure 1-3 EntelliGuard small frame circuit breaker

The network interlock accessory selectively prevents the closing of specific circuit breakers in the electrical distribution network. The CPU sets and resets network interlock devices remotely while continuously monitoring their status. For example, in a double-ended substation, these devices could be used to interlock the main and tie circuit breakers to prevent connecting two unsynchronized power sources.

The bell alarm lockout accessory prevents a circuit breaker from closing after receiving a trip command from the EntelliGuard Messenger. Closing of the circuit breaker is permitted only after the lockout is reset manually at the front of the circuit breaker.

For more information, see the following EntelliGuard Circuit Breaker Instruction Books:

1 1.3.2 Current transformers

Current transformers (CTs) are sensors that measures current. Each circuit breaker requires input from three CTs (one per phase) and an optional neutral CT. Unlike traditional switchgear, this single set of CTs provides the necessary current sensing for all needs including protection, metering, and control.

The CTs are attached to the power bus behind the circuit breaker in the circuit breaker compartment. Only Entellisys CTs may be used with the Entellisys system.

CTs either come in a 3-pack (shown in Figure 1-4) or as single CTs.

Figure 1-4 CT 3-pack

14 System architecture

1.3.3 Potential transformers

 

 

 

Potential or voltage transformers (PTs) are sensors that measure voltage. Unlike traditional switchgear, only the main (or source) circuit breakers in the system require PTs. This hardware and wiring reduction is possible because of the central processor architecture and the sampling synchronization maintained by the system.

Three PTs, one for each phase, are required on the main circuit breakers in the system. The remaining circuit breakers reference one circuit breaker with physical PTs and use that source's voltage readings for metering calculations. This source reference may change as the system topology changes.

The PTs are located outside the circuit breaker compartments in auxiliary compartments.

1 1.3.4 EntelliGuard Messenger

The EntelliGuard Messenger electronic device provides the interface between the circuit breakers and the CPUs in the Entellisys system.

Following is a summary of the Messenger’s functionality:

Digitizes all switchgear signals

Communicates the raw samples to CPUs via the Messenger network

Controls the circuit breaker

Performs independent backup trip capability at all times

Powered by dual 120v control power sources or self-powered from the current sensors

Provides LED illumination of circuit breaker status, power status, communication status, and GE “Locator” information

Connection point between the Entellisys System Test Kit and the Messenger.

Figure 1-7 EntelliGuard Messenger

The Messenger is located directly above the circuit breaker compartment.

1.3.5 Compartment ID button

The Compartment ID button stores compartment configuration information in non-volatile memory. It informs the system about the circuit breaker residing in the cubicle.

The Compartment ID button is shipped inserted into the EntelliGuard Messenger, tethered to the equipment, and does not require any user interface during normal operation. It remains within the switchgear cubicle at all times.

WARNING! Compartment ID buttons are set at the factory and are not interchangeable between compartments. Failure to utilize the correct compartment ID button can result in personal injury and damage to equipment.

The ID button provides the system with necessary information such as circuit breaker frame size, CT size, and overcurrent protection capabilities as follows:

Ground fault protection always on

Ground fault protection always off

Ground fault protection switchable (enabled/disabled) in the HMI

If the ground fault protection options need to change, a replacement ID button must be ordered (GE CAT# ETSCOMPID).

1.3.6 Messenger communications network

The Messenger communications networks are closed, dedicated LANs for transmitting information between the Messengers and the CPUs in the system. The LANs are for the Entellisys system only and should never be connected to other networks.

CAUTION: Failure to maintain a dedicated LAN will result in the EntelliGuard Messenger reverting to back-up Overcurrent protection.

A Messenger switch is required to route information appropriately. The communication wiring required is 100BaseT, CAT5 cables.

Each CPU resides on a separate network, providing redundant communications.

1.3.7 Messenger switch

The Messenger switch enables the communication network between the Messengers and corresponding CPU. A Messenger switch is required for each of the two redundant networks. The number of ports provided is determined by the number of circuit breakers in the system. Each circuit breaker requires its own port in the switch.

The largest switch provides only 24 ports. If the number of circuit breakers in the system exceeds 22, a pyramid switch scheme, utilizing multiple switches, is required.

18 System architecture

1.3.8 CPU

 

 

 

The CPU is a rack-mount industrial computer running a real-time operating system. The CPU provides the processing capability to support all switchgear functions. Two redundant CPUs (CPU A and CPU B) are used per lineup, supporting up to 30 circuit breakers.

The CPUs run simultaneously. If one CPU has an issue, the other continues to run providing redundancy. One CPU should be running at all times to maintain the highest level of protection. In the event that the Messenger-to-CPU communication network is down or power to the CPU is not available, the EntelliGuard Messenger will provide back-up overcurrent protection functionality.

The redundant CPUs are synchronized by a common connection to a synch clock. Each CPU has a slot for synch clock, although only one synch clock is used per system. The synch clock is programmed for either 60 Hertz or 50 Hertz frequency operation.

Each CPU has two slots for optional digital I/O cards.

Figure 1-9 Redundant CPUs with synch clock connection

1.3.9 Synch clock

To maintain system synchronization, a mechanism exists to provide a single sampling time source. This time source is provided on a separate hardware card, called the Synch Clock. The Synch Clock sits in CPU A and has a connection to CPU B.

In the event of an issue with the Synch Clock or its connections, the CPUs fall-back to software synch functionality. When this occurs CPU A maintains full functionality. As time drifts, CPU B may suspend advanced multi-source protection and may not be able to provide metering information for the circuit breakers without PTs. If CPU A is powered down to provide maintenance, CPU B will run full functionality.

1 1.3.10 Digital I/O

The Digital I/O equipment provides programmable input and output logic for customer-specific requirements.

Examples include the following:

Sound a horn when a circuit breaker is open

Trigger an output when voltage exceeds a value

The redundant digital I/O option provides signal processing to/from either CPU. One CPU (the Master) processes the information and responds. The other provides a backup of the Master fails. Redundant digital I/O is recommended if any of the signals are critical to the operation of the system. Critical I/O examples include the following:

Inputs to automatic throw-over schemes

Inputs that must trip circuit breaker (such as high transformer pressure) For more information on Digital I/O, see Digital I/O on page 127.

1.3.10.1 CPU digital I/O cards

The input and output signals from the CPU are transferred through the CPU digital I/O Cards. Each card supports 64 bi-directional points that range from 0 to 5 volts. A maximum of two cards may be inserted for a total of 128 I/O points. The cards come installed in the CPU upon purchase.

1.3.10.2 Digital I/O cable

This cable connects the CPU digital I/O card to the terminal block. Each cable transmits 64 I/O points.

1.3.10.3 Terminal block

The terminal block accepts 64 I/O signals from the CPU digital I/O card through a single cable and breaks out the individual signals into 64 terminals for wiring.

1.3.10.4 “OR” boards

These boards are only required for redundant digital I/O. The output signals from both CPUs must be “Horde” together, between the terminal blocks and the relay blocks, to prevent increased voltages from damaging the relays. Each “OR” board supports 16 output signals.

1.3.10.5 Relay blocks

The relay blocks hold solid state input and output relays (16 per block).

Relay blocks are configured as all inputs or all outputs. Unused digital I/O points may have relays left off.

1.3.10.6 Relays

The input relays transform the customer input (120 Vac or 24-125 Vdc) to 5V inputs for the

Entellisys system.

The output relays are either opened or closed based on programmable logic in the Entellisys system.

20 System architecture

1.3.10.7 Digital I/O customer interface wiring

1

The customer interface to the digital I/O is provided at the I/O module relay blocks. These relay blocks and the customer wire termination points are mounted in the digital I/O cubicle and are accessed from the front of the switchgear. Control conduits are terminated in the rear cable compartment and the digital I/O wiring is routed to the front of the switchgear through an opening in the digital I/O cubicle rear barrier.

1.3.11 System interface Ethernet communication network

The system interface Ethernet communication network is a 10/100 Mbps Ethernet LAN that provides an interface into the Entellisys system for systems such as the Entellisys HMI, SCADA systems, building automation, HVAC systems or other. The system interface Ethernet communication network provides information and control of all circuit breakers in the system. The external communications network will use 100BaseT (copper twisted pair) CAT5 or better cabling. A fiber optic connection is available as an option.

1.3.12 System interface Ethernet switch

The interface between the Entellisys system and the external world is through the system interface Ethernet switch, an industrial hardened 10/100 Mbps Ethernet switch. An 8-port copper model is standard. Optionally customers may choose a 9-port model with an additional fiber port for external gear communication. The fiber port supports 100FL connections only.

Figure 1-10 Ethernet switch, 8-port

1 1.3.13 Touchscreen HMI

The system interface for the Entellisys switchgear will be through one or more touchscreen computer displays. The display is driven by a separate computer and communicates to the CPUs through an Ethernet connection. The System Interface Ethernet Switch provides the physical interface.

The HMI communicates primarily with one of the CPUs but can switch to the other in event of a failure. Functionality provided by the HMI includes:

Programmable user login to grant/deny access to specific features

Animated one-line that shows the current status of the entire system

Circuit breaker status, circuit breaker control

Metering, demand logging, harmonics

User settings for overcurrent protection, relay protection, advanced multi-source protection. This may be writable or read-only depending on permissions granted.

Customer-specific discrete I/O programming and status

Customer-specific control scheme programming and status

Sequence of events

System health – showing the health of the Entellisys equipment

Alarm panel – setup, panel status, e-mail configuration for alarms

NOTE: The HMI is not critical to the protection functionality of the system. The HMI can be brought down for service with no loss of protection in the system.

1.3.13.1 In-gear HMI

Typically a touchscreen HMI is installed in the switchgear. This is deemed an “in-gear” HMI.

A redundant in-gear HMI is available as an option. The redundant HMI is also a touchscreen HMI located in the gear.

1.3.13.2 Near-gear HMI

Optionally, a touchscreen HMI may be installed near the switchgear equipment, but away from the hazardous arc flash zone. This can be in a separate stack or in a wall-mount box up to

250 feet from the switchgear. This is deemed a “near-gear” HMI.

1.3.14 Remote HMI

 

 

 

The Entellisys system offers desktop access to the switchgear with the same HMI software installed in the gear. The remote HMI software can be installed on any Windows 2000 desktop computer and requires an intranet connection to the switchgear. The intranet connection is connected to the system interface Ethernet switch.

Two versions of remote HMI are offered:

User Interactive

Permissions are programmable and can be set for full Administrator access down to Guest access.

Viewer

Allows read-only access to the system.

1.3.15VPN firewall device

Virtual Private Network (VPN) firewall device provides business-class network security providing Denial of Service (DoS) protection and intrusion detection using Stateful Packet Inspection (SPI), URL access and content filtering, logging, reporting, and real-time alerts. Up to eight users can access the system simultaneously.

It is strongly recommended that anytime an Entellisys system is connected to the intranet, a

VPN firewall be installed to protect the Entellisys system from network threats.

1.3.16 Control power

Control Power is 120 Vac, 50 and 60 Hz only. Uninterruptible power is provided standard with each system. The control power scheme is specific to each installation and constructed from standard elements using defined practices for Entellisys control power distribution.

1.3.17 UPS

Two Universal Power Supplies are installed in the switchgear to provide backup power to the control power network. The UPSs are powered from the primary power buses (utility or generator) and are redundant.

The UPS serves all 120 Vac control power network devices. It does not power the charging motors of electrically operated circuit breakers.

For more information on the Control Power Network, see Control power and UPS configuration on page 183.

For more information on the UPS, see the “GE Digital Energy GT Series™ - UL, Product

1.3.18 UPS to HMI connection

 

 

The Entellisys system provides event/alarm/e-mail information when the UPS A has gone on

 

 

 

 

battery backup and when the batteries are low. When the batteries are low, the HMI safely shuts

 

 

down to avoid abrupt power interruption. To enable this communication, a link between UPS A

 

 

and the primary touchscreen HMI is established. This link is a serial connection between the

 

 

DB-9 serial port connection on the UPS and the DB-9 serial port connection on the HMI. Since

 

 

distances between the HMI and UPS may exceed serial cable distances, a pair of RS-232 to

 

 

RS-485 converters are installed at each end to accommodate the cabling distance through the

 

 

switchgear.

1.3.19 RS-232 to RS-485 converter

This device converts RS-232 signals to RS-485 signals. This is required to support the cable lengths in the switchgear. RS-232 imposes a distance limitation of only 15 meters. RS-485 can transmit data over distances up to 1.2 km.

1.3.20 Entellisys System Test Kit

GE Industrial Solutions Entellisys System User Manual

3 Basic control

Entellisys allows users to control EntelliGuard circuit breakers from the HMI. A circuit breaker

may be commanded to open, close or trip. To locate or confirm the circuit breaker shown on the 3 HMI screen matches the physical circuit breaker, the locator LED on each EntelliGuard

Messenger can be set to flash for 10 or 30 seconds.

3.1 Controlling circuit breakers

To control a circuit breaker, navigate to the Breaker Status screen and click Control as shown in Figure 3-1. The Breaker Control screen appears. The Breaker Control screen resembles

Figure 3-2 when the circuit breaker is open. The Breaker Control screen resembles Figure 3-3 when the circuit breaker is closed.

28 Basic control

3.2 Block other HMIs

Any HMI that is designated as a Local HMI can block other HMIs from operating circuit breakers. To designate an HMI as local, click the Modbus Security tab under the Maintenance menu.

When the check box on that screen is checked, the HMI is the Local HMI.

3

To block other HMIs from the local HMI, click the Control button under the Breaker Status screen. In the Breaker Control screen there is a check box to Block Other HMIs.

Only Local HMIs have the ability to block other HMIs. If the Block Other HMIs check box is grayed out, it is not setup as a Local HMI.

CAUTION: When controlling circuit breakers through a local HMI it is recommended that users block all HMIs to prevent remote circuit breaker control. This step is in addition to normal lock-out tag-out procedures when applicable.

3.3 Open circuit breaker (electrically operated circuit breakers only)

To open a circuit breaker, click OPEN BREAKER on the Breaker Control screen. A dialog box appears for verification that the circuit breaker should be opened. Click Yes to open the circuit breaker. Once the open breaker command is verified, the EntelliGuard Messenger uses the Shunt Trip to actually open the circuit breaker.

If the open breaker command is successful, the circuit breaker opens and the Current State of the circuit breaker on the Breaker Control screen changes from Closed to Open. If the circuit breaker does not open, examine the Sequence of Events. One of the following events may be present:

Attention Breaker Open Failed Shunt Trip

Note Messngr Reports CPUA (or B) Command Timed Out See Table A-2 for more information.

3.4Close circuit breaker (electrically operated circuit breakers only)

To close a circuit breaker, click CLOSE BREAKER on the Breaker Control screen. A dialog box appears for verification that the circuit breaker should be closed. Click Yes to close the circuit breaker. Once the close breaker command is verified, the EntelliGuard Messenger uses the Close Coil to actually close the circuit breaker.

Block other HMIs

29

 

If the close breaker command is successful, the circuit breaker closes and the Current State of

 

the circuit breaker on the Breaker Control screen changes from Open to Closed. If the circuit

 

breaker does not close, examine the Sequence of Events. One of the following events may be

 

present:

 

Attention Breaker Close Failed

3

Breaker Close Command Rejected Breaker Locked Out

Note Messngr Arbitrated Command From CPUA (or B)

Note Messngr Reports CPUA (or B) Command Timed Out See Table A-2 for more information.

3.5Trip circuit breaker

To trip a circuit breaker, click TRIP BREAKER on the Breaker Control screen. A dialog box appears for verification that the circuit breaker should be tripped. Click Yes to trip the circuit breaker. Once the trip breaker command is verified, the EntelliGuard Messenger uses the Flux Shifter to actually trip the circuit breaker.

If the trip breaker command is successful, the circuit breaker trips and is locked out, and the Current State of the circuit breaker on the Breaker Control screen changes from Closed to Open-tripped. If the circuit breaker does not trip, examine the Sequence of Events. One of the following events may be present:

Attention Breaker Trip Failed Flux Shifter

Note Messngr Reports CPUA (or B) Command Timed Out See Table A-2 for more information.

3.6Locator LED

To turn on the locator LED for 10 or 30 seconds, click 10 Seconds or 30 Seconds on the Breaker Control screen. The locator LED on the particular EntelliGuard Messenger blinks for the appropriate length, making identification easy.
