IS200TVIBH2BAA Mark VIe Speedtronic

Functional Overview
The IS200TVIBH2BAA is a 24-channel discrete (digital) input module in the GE Mark VIe control system. Its primary function is to collect discrete signals (contact open/close signals) generated by field devices such as sensors,
 switches, and relays, convert them into digital signals that can be recognized and processed by the PLC or control system CPU,
and transmit the processed data to the GE Speedtronic turbine control system or other control equipment, enabling automated control and monitoring.

Certifications and Safety

This module is UL certified and can be used in both hazardous and non-hazardous locations. The UL certification covers various classes and divisions, and relevant UL mark documents are available for reference.

The MariTIme Link power interconnection made history on December 8, 2017, with the first power exchange between Newfoundland and Nova Scotia. It entered service on January 15, 2018, as ABB continues to work with Emera and the provincial system operators during initial operations.

The Maritime Link is a 500-megawatt high-voltage direct current link that enables clean, renewable energy produced in Newfoundland and Labrador to be transmitted to Nova Scotia’s North American grid, reducing reliance on fossil fuels. The robust nature of ABB’s solution will also enable Nova Scotia to integrate other renewable energy sources, such as wind energy, and contribute to Canada’s emissions reduction efforts.

ABB officially delivers MariTIme Link power interconnection project

The lightweight HVDC technology used in the Maritime Link design is the world’s first bipolar configuration using proven and reliable voltage source converters. This solution enhances system availability, reduces losses and improves grid reliability, allowing power to continue to be transmitted even when a conductor or converter is not in use. The converter station is equipped with an advanced MACH control and protection system based on ABB Ability, which functions like the brain of the high-voltage DC connection, monitoring, controlling and protecting cutting-edge technologies within the station, and managing thousands of operations to ensure power reliability. Its advanced fault levels and remote control capabilities also help protect against unexpected outages such as lightning strikes.

“Our proven lightweight HVDC technology will enable the historic Maritime Link power interconnection project to integrate and deliver clean renewable energy while enhancing grid stability and enabling power sharing.” Patrick Fragman, head of ABB’s grid integration business “HVDC is a technology we have pioneered and led and is an important part of the next phase of our strategy, cementing our position as the partner of choice for a stronger, smarter and greener grid,” said the company.

In addition to two converter stations for ±200 kV HVDC transmission, the project scope includes two 230 kV AC substations in Newfoundland, a 345 kV AC substation and two cables in Nova Scotia Transit station.
