Presentation PD100 Partial Discharge Monitoring

Presentation

The PD100 measures partial discharge signals broadcast on the MV network

through a capacitive coupler. The measurement is performed 24 hours a day,

7 days a week. The PD100 sends relevant data through a wireless communication

network (Zigbee PRO) to a Zigbee PRO concentrator.

The PD100 is designed to be installed in the cubicle and connected to all three

phases of the Medium Voltage supply of the cubicle. The PD100 is connected via

the same capacitive connection as the one used for the VDIS unit, provided that

the capacitance value is between 10 pF and 128 pF.

D. Coupling element connector and VDIS connector

You can install the PD100 on any flat, rigid vertical support, using the four

mounting clips of the PD100. To free up space for control gear, you can attach the

PD100 to the front panel of the floor-standing or wall-mounted cubicle.

The mounting plate on the front panel of the cubicle must have a thickness

between 0.8 mm (0.03 in) and 3.2 mm (0.13 in). If coating treatment or other

surface treatment exists, dimensions and tolerances include surface treatment.

Install the PD100 in a place allowing you to see clearly the indicators, facilitating

the access to the front face of the PD100, and preventing the access to the rear

connectors.

Check that you can scan the QR code on the PD100 front face.

Make sure that clearance distances behind the PD100 allow the following

operations:

• insert the PD100 without the rear of the PD100 interfering with other

components, and

• allow the wiring to be connected without being stressed.

PD100 Partial Discharge Monitoring Operation

Operation

Zigbee PRO Pairing

Refer to the user guide of the Zigbee PRO concentrator to configure your system.

Before proceeding with pairing, check that the concentrator has the latest

available firmware version.

Pair the PD100 with EcoStruxure Panel Server gateways (reference PaS600x/

PaS800x) or other Schneider Electric gateways. For detailed information about

pairing the devices, refer to EcoStruxure Panel Server - User Guide for Panel

Server gateway or the user guide of the relevant gateway.

Proceed as follows to connect to an existing Zigbee PRO network:

1. Check that the device is in Zigbee factory reset state.

2. Open the network on the coordinator side. The exact procedure depends on

the coordinator device being used. Refer to its documentation for instructions.

3. While the network is open, press the Zigbee button. The Zigbee LED starts

blinking in yellow while searching for the network to join.

NOTE: PD100 searches a network for the next three minutes and returns

to the Zigbee factory reset state if none is found.

4. When the Zigbee LED turns fixed green, PD100 has successfully joined the

network.

NOTICE

HAZARD OF INAPPROPRIATE USE

In commissioning test mode, data must not be considered as valid data.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in equipment damage.

NOTE: After the PD100 joins a network, it automatically enters the

commissioning test mode for a duration of three minutes. In this mode,

the PD100 performs acquisitions at an accelerated rate.

Commissioning Test Mode

To enter commissioning test mode, check the system LED status.

• If the system LED is blinking in green, the PD100 is already in commissioning

test mode. No further action is required.

• If the system LED is not blinking in green, short press the system button (less

than two seconds) and release it. The system LED starts blinking in green,

indicating that the device has entered the commissioning test mode.

In commissioning test mode:

• The PD100 performs acquisitions at an accelerated rate.

• You have access to testing functionalities.

The PD100 remains in commissioning test mode for three minutes, or until you

press the system button again. Then, the PD100 exits commissioning test mode.

Measurement Mode

The PD100 enters measurement mode automatically after the three minutes in

commissioning test mode.
