GE IS210ERGTH1A EX2100, Ground Detector, Regulator

The IS210ERGTH1A is a crucial component for ensuring the safety and reliability of large rotating machinery. Its main functions include:

  • Ground Fault Detection: The board continuously monitors the resistance of the field winding to ground. It uses a sensitive circuit to detect even small changes in resistance, which could indicate a developing ground fault. Ground faults in a rotating machine’s field winding can lead to severe damage if left unaddressed.
  • Regulation: The “Regulator” part of the description indicates that this board also plays a role in regulating the field voltage and current. It works in conjunction with the main EX2100 controller to maintain the correct excitation level for the generator or motor.
  • Isolation and Protection: The board provides electrical isolation between the field winding and the control system electronics. It also includes protection circuitry to prevent damage from overvoltages or short circuits in the field.
  • Diagnostics: The board provides diagnostic information to the main EX2100 controller, allowing for real-time monitoring of the field winding’s condition. If a ground fault is detected, the board sends a signal to the controller, which can then take corrective action, such as tripping the unit or issuing an alarm.
