DS200PCCAG1ABB Power Connect Card

This DS200PCCAG1ABB printed circuit board was manufactured for GE’s Mark V Turbine Control System Series, which, as hinted at by its full extended series name, has specific applications in the management and control systems of compatible wind, steam, and gas turbine automated drive assemblies.

While this DS200PCCAG1ABB printed circuit board or PCB for short is definable functionally as a Power Connect Card, the originally-developed product of this functionality to feature within the Mark V is the DS200PCCAG1 parent printed circuit board missing all three of this DS200PCCAG1ABB product’s three significant product revisions.

Hardware Tips and Specifications

The DS200PCCAG1ABB PCCA Power Connect Card serves as an interface board between the SCRs and the drive’s control circuitry. Information about the DS200PCCAG1ABB can be found in the GE Industrial Control System Instruction Manual GEI-100161A and GEI-100161B.

This board is the “ABB” revision of the baseline DS200PCCAG1 model and is the G1 group number. The G1 group number means that this PCCA board is regenerative and has an armature voltage scaling of 240-630 volts.

The DS200PCCAG1ABB has four configurable jumpers located at JP1. JP2. WP3. and WP4. These jumpers, when set to application specific configuration, inform the drive if the snubber capacitors are connected to the power bridge at the same point as the voltage feedback channel.

The jumpers in this DS200PCCAG1ABB Mark V Turbine Control System Series PCB’s assembly are specifically used as follows:

JP1 selects DC Armature Voltage Range

JP2 is used along with JP1 to select DC Armature Voltage Range

WP3 is set to configure snubber and voltage feedback connection status

WP4 is also used to indicate snubber and voltage feedback channel connections
