GE IS200EPSDG1AAB EPSM Power Input Board

الوصف

The GE IS200EPSDG1AAB is the Exciter Regulator Power Supply Daughterboard (EPSD).¹ It is a small auxiliary board that mounts onto the main Exciter Power Supply Module (EPSM), specifically the EPSMG2 variant, within the EX2100 Excitation Control System (part of the Mark VI/VIe platform).²

⚡ Core Function and Purpose

The IS200EPSDG1AAB’s primary role is to modify and protect the power input for the EPSM, making it suitable for use in high-voltage exciter regulator control applications.³

• High-Voltage Compatibility: The daughterboard physically increases the creepage and clearance distances (insulation safety margins) on the power input path.⁴ This enhancement allows the combined EPSM/EPSD assembly to safely handle the higher DC voltages present on the regulator’s DC link bus.
• Protection: It integrates a high-voltage fuse in series between the DC link power source and the EPSM’s internal buck-regulator circuit.⁵ This provides critical overcurrent protection against fault conditions in the high-power regulator section.
• Non-Standalone: It is not a functional board on its own but operates as an integral part of the main EPSMG2 assembly, which is the module that converts the DC input into the logic-level voltages ($\text{+5 V}$, $\pm \text{15 V}$, $\text{+24 V}$) required to power the exciter controllers.

The revision code G1AAB indicates a specific hardware revision of the EPSD, which maintains the core function of the earlier G1A version while potentially incorporating minor component or manufacturing updates.
