Kyle Form 5, Form 5 UDP, Form 5 DC NOVA Recloser Control Installation and Operation Instructions

The Form 5 control is constructed in a modular fashion to simplify service and the addition of accessories (Figure 4). The standard configuration incorporates a Central Processing Unit (CPU) module, power supply module, Recloser Interface (RIF) module, and an operator panel.

Discrete Interface (DIF) module(s), the fiber-optic board and the RS-232 communication interface cards may be ordered as accessories. Mounting provisions can be provided to add customer-supplied radio and modem modules.

Central Processing Unit (CPU) Module

The CPU module is the center of the Form 5 control. The CPU contains a 32-bit micro-controller, a Digital Signal Processor, RAM and EEPROM memory, and a 16-bit analog-to-digital converter. The CPU module accepts 16 analog inputs which it routes through the digital signal processor, which samples 32 times per cycle, to compute harmonic analysis to the 15th harmonic.

Recloser Interface (RIF) Module

The Recloser Interface (RIF) Module provides the interface between the recloser and the CPU module, as well as the interface between the voltage sensors and the CPU module. The RIF is designed to interface with the following reclosers: WE/WVE group, NOVA group, VSA/VSO group, and KFME/KFVME (50Hz) group.

The recloser connector includes three current-transformer inputs, Open and Closed status sensing, and Trip and Close controls. The voltage sensor connector accepts six voltage inputs; three for source-side, and three for load-side voltage. Two sets of dip switches, located on the RIF front panel, utilize different switch positions to configure the desired voltage. See Figure 17.

The RIF board accepts either 12, 120, or 240 Vac voltage inputs for metering. The factory configuration is outlined on the module label and can be customized to user spec- ification. See RECLOSER INTERFACE (RIF) MODULE CONFIGURATION section of this manual.

Discrete Interface (DIF) Module

The Discrete Interface (DIF) module allows users with existing RTUs the ability to interface with the Form 5 con- trol. The DIF module contains 12 inputs and 12 outputs can be customized for a remote or supervisory function. One Form 5 control can accommodate two DIF modules. See DISCRETE INTERFACE (DIF) ACCESSORY section of this manual.

Power Supply Module

The Power Supply module is designed to accept 100 to 134 Vac or 200 to 268 Vac user-supplied input power at either 50 or 60 Hz.

The Power supply module (connection P9) provides auxiliary power to radio communications units, RTUs and other accessories. The auxiliary output provides 24 Vdc (12 Vdc is available) for user loads. The auxiliary power supply has the capability to provide a load of up to 40 W peak (1 second) and 3 W average. The auxiliary power is fused and current-limited to prevent user loads from disabling the control.
