Control and Alarm Connections

The rectifier is interfaced to the power plant controller through the signal

connectors provided on the backplane of the power shelf (see Figures 1 and
2 for location). These signal connectors provide control, alarm, and

monitoring signals.

The power shelf provides two types of signal connectors. One ribbon cable

26-pin female connector, or multiple eight-pin male cable connectors are
used to interface the rectifiers to the power plant controller and monitoring

unit. The control inputs are activated by a BAT RTN signal. The alarm
signals extended by relay contacts are isolated from each other and from the

chassis. All contacts are rated 60 V DC and 0.5 A.
