Electrical Auxiliary Devices

Summary of Electrical Auxiliary Devices

The following table shows electrical auxiliary devices that can be added to devices. They can be installed on site. For more information, see the TeSys Motor Control and Protection Components Catalog.

Electrical auxiliary device

Use

OF auxiliary contact

View the on/off status of the device remotely.

SD auxiliary contact

View the trip status of the device remotely.

SDE auxiliary contact

Indicate that the device has tripped on an electrical fault.

AU undervoltage trip release

Trip the device when the control voltage drops below a tripping threshold.

AS shunt trip

Send an electrical trip command remotely to trip the device.

SDTAM thermal fault module

Provide alarm and fault differentiation.

Slots for Electrical Auxiliary Devices on TeSys GV5 Devices

The following table shows the possible slots for electrical auxiliary devices mounted in the case.

SD auxiliary contact

SDE auxiliary contact (with addition of the optional SDE adapter)

AU undervoltage trip release

AS shunt trip

SDTAM thermal fault module

NOTE: It is not possible to install all the accessories at the same time in one device. For example, SDTAM thermal fault module uses the same slot as AU undervoltage trip release or AS shunt trip.
