Functional Description

IS210TREGH1B is a Turbine Emergency Trip Terminal Board developed by GE. It is a part of the Mark VIe control system. TREG supplies power to three emergency trip solenoids and is managed by the I/O controller. A maximum of three trip solenoids can be connected between the TREG and TRPG terminal boards. It delivers the positive side of the DC power to the solenoids, while TRPG provides the negative side.

Power Supply and Connection

The board delivers power and ensures seamless operation for emergency trip solenoids. It supports up to three solenoids, which are essential for executing turbine trips during emergency conditions. The connections and power distribution are designed as follows:

  • TREG Terminal Board: Supplies the positive side of the DC power.
  • TRPG Terminal Board: Complements the setup by providing the negative side of the DC power.
  • The TREG board integrates 12 relays, nine of which are grouped into three sets of three. These groups form a voting system, ensuring redundancy and accuracy in controlling the trip solenoids. This configuration is critical for executing emergency overspeed protection and emergency stop commands effectively.

Operation

The board operates under the direct control of the I/O controller, making it a highly integrated and responsive component. Key connections include:

  • J2 Power Cable: Supplies the necessary power for board operations.
  • Trip Solenoids: Provide the connection for emergency trip execution.
  • J1 Trip Signal Cable: In simplex systems, this additional connection links to the TSVO terminal board, enabling a servo valve clamp function during turbine trips.
  • By minimizing external dependencies and leveraging the I/O controller’s capabilities, the TREG board ensures fast and reliable responses during critical scenarios.

Terminal Board Diagnostics

To ensure high reliability, operational safety, and system integrity, the I/O controller performs continuous and comprehensive diagnostics on the board and its connected components. These diagnostics play a crucial role in monitoring critical parameters, detecting anomalies, and preventing failures that could compromise turbine operations.

Key Diagnostic Functions

The diagnostic system monitors several essential aspects of the TREG board, including:

  • Trip Relay Driver and Contact Feedback: Ensures that the trip relay functions correctly by continuously verifying its driver signals and feedback contacts. Confirms that the relay engages and disengages properly, preventing unintended turbine trips or failure to shut down during an emergency.
  • Solenoid Voltage Levels: Monitors the voltage supply to the trip solenoids to ensure they receive stable and adequate power for proper operation. Detects overvoltage, undervoltage, or loss of voltage, which could lead to trip solenoid failure.
  • Economizer Relay Driver and Feedback Mechanisms: Verifies the performance of the economizer relay, which optimizes solenoid power consumption by reducing energy draw after activation. Ensures proper feedback communication between the relay driver and the I/O controller.
  • K25A Relay Driver and Coil Performance: Continuously checks the K25A relay driver to ensure it is operating correctly. Monitors the coil resistance and activation response, detecting faults such as open circuits, short circuits, or degradation over time.
  • Servo Clamp Relay Driver and Feedback Systems: Ensures the servo clamp relay driver is functioning correctly, as this component plays a role in system control and stability. Feedback mechanisms verify that the relay engages and releases properly, preventing erratic turbine behavior.
  • Solenoid Voltage Source: Verifies the primary power source supplying the solenoids. Detects power fluctuations, drops, or loss of supply, which could prevent the system from initiating an emergency trip when needed.

Fault Notification and System Response

If any discrepancies, malfunctions, or abnormalities are detected during the diagnostic process, the system:

  • Generates an immediate fault notification, alerting operators to potential issues.
  • Logs diagnostic data for further analysis and troubleshooting.
  • Initiates predefined safety protocols, ensuring minimal risk to the turbine and power system

Solenoid Trip Tests 

  • The application software within the controller is utilized to initiate and perform tests on the trip solenoids. These tests can be conducted online, allowing each trip solenoid to be manually activated individually. This can be done either through the PTR relays controlled by the system or through the ETR relays from the protection module.
  • To verify that a solenoid has successfully tripped, a contact from each solenoid circuit is wired back as a contact input, providing a positive confirmation.
  • Additionally, primary and emergency offline overspeed tests are available, enabling the verification of actual trips under conditions where the software simulates trip overspeed scenarios.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is IS210TREGH1B?
It is a Turbine Emergency Trip Terminal Board developed by GE under the Mark VIe series.

What is the role of the Turbine Emergency Trip Terminal Board in turbine protection?
It provides power to up to three emergency trip solenoids and is fully controlled by the I/O controller. It plays a crucial role in providing emergency overspeed protection and emergency stop functions. The system utilizes 12 relays on the TREG, nine of which are grouped in three sets of three-to-vote inputs, controlling the solenoids that are crucial for turbine safety.

What is the connection between TREG and TRPG boards?
TREG supplies the positive side of the DC power to the emergency trip solenoids, while the TRPG board provides the negative side of the power to complete the circuit. The I/O controller manages the communication and activation of trip functions between TREG and TRPG boards.

How does the TREG system work in simplex and redundant configurations?
In simplex systems, works with a third cable from J1 to the TSVO terminal board to provide a servo valve clamp function when the turbine trips. The system can be configured with redundancy for enhanced reliability and fault tolerance.

What happens if there is a mismatch or fault in the system?
If the I/O controller detects a mismatch during diagnostics or identifies an incompatibility between the TREG board and other components (via the ID device), a hardware fault is triggered. This helps to ensure that only compatible and properly functioning hardware is used in the system, maintaining turbine safety.

How are the trip solenoids tested?
Trip solenoids can be tested using the application software in the controller, which allows the user to manually trigger each trip solenoid individually. Tests can be initiated through the PTR or ETR relays, confirming the solenoid circuit contacts, ensuring proper functionality of the emergency trip mechanisms.
