The GE part number IS200EXTBG1A is an EX2100 Terminal Board. Its primary function is to serve as a physical interface and termination point for the various field wiring connected to the EX2100 Excitation Control System. ⚙️
Function and Key Features
A terminal board is a passive component that organizes and simplifies the electrical connections between the control system and external devices.
- Wiring Interface: The EXTB board provides a set of screw terminals or other connectors for technicians to land the field wires from sensors, actuators, and other equipment. This eliminates the need to directly wire these signals to the control cards, simplifying installation and maintenance.
- Signal Organization: By consolidating multiple signals onto a single board, it creates a clean, organized, and easily identifiable point for troubleshooting and testing.
- System Integration: The EXTB board works in conjunction with the main I/O cards (like the ERIO or EMIO), which often connect to the terminal board via a ribbon cable or other connector.
- Robust Design: Like all GE industrial control components, it’s built to withstand the harsh conditions of a power plant.
Applications
The IS200EXTBG1A is a legacy component primarily found in power generation facilities. It is an essential component for:
- Simplified Installation: It makes the initial installation and field wiring much more efficient.
- Ease of Maintenance: It provides a clear and accessible point for technicians to perform diagnostics, disconnect signals, or replace a control board without having to re-wire the entire system.
- System Reliability: By providing a robust and secure connection point, it minimizes the risk of loose connections or wiring errors.
