7XG222 2RMLG Test Block and 2RLMB-R Test Plug

Description
The 7XG222 range of test blocks, housed within an Epsilon
enclosure, offers facilities for monitoring and secondary injec-
1.1
tion testing of power system protection schemes in conjunction
with the appropriate multi-fingered test plug.
The 2RMLG Test Block has 14 pairs of spring loaded contacts
which are linked to a terminal block positioned at the rear of the
enclosure.
The 2RMLG07 is coded to only accept the 2RMLB-R7 Test Plug
which has connection terminals 21, 23, 25, and 27, internally.
The 2RMLG08 is coded to only accept the 2RMLB-R8 Test Plug
which has internal pairs 1 and 3, 5 and 7, 9 and 11, and 15 and
17, shorted together internally.
The 2RMLG09 is coded to only accept the 2RMLB-R9 Test Plug
which has terminals 1-3-5-7, 9-11, 17-19 & 21-23-25-27 shorted
together internally..
Each pair of contacts is normally closed completing the circuit
through the test block when the associated protection equip-
ment is in use.
For testing purposes the test block can be accessed by removing
the front cover. The 2RMLG01 has a metallic probe attached to
the front cover assembly which when withdrawn open circuits
the 2 contacts at position 13 and 14.
The main DC auxiliary supply to the protection scheme or relay
can be wired to this circuit to prevent inadvertent tripping of the
[sc_7XG22, 1, --_--]
protection circuit after removal of the cover and during the test
procedure.
The 2RMLG02/07/08/09 do not include the above facility and
• 7XG222 Suitable for vertical or horizontal mounting
contacts 13 and 14 are normally closed. These contacts must • Standard 4U case design

the 2RMLB-R test plug is shorter in this position.
The short test finger in position 13 and 14 on the 2RMLB-R will
open contacts 13 and 14 in the test block after the other fingers
have made contact in all other positions.
It is important that the sockets in the test plug which correspond
to the current transformer secondary windings are linked prior
to the test plug being inserted into the test block.
This will ensure that the current transformer secondary wind-
ings are short circuited prior to disconnection from the protec-
tion scheme or relay. If the DC auxiliary supply is to be used
during testing it can be linked using the sockets in the test plug.
Operation of the contacts can be monitored by connecting the
test equipment to the protection scheme or relay with the even
numbered sockets of the test plug. If a number of 2RMLG test
blocks are connected to a relay it is recommended that the DC
supply be routed through each of them to safeguard against
inadvertent operation.

Benefits
The features of the Test Block are:
• Finger safe design
• Finger safe test leads
• Various scheme configurations
• Retention fixings on test plugs

NOTE

i BEFORE inserting a Test Plug into a Test Socket

carrying current transformer secondary circuits
ensure that the test plugs corresponding to the
current transformer circuits are short-circuited.
This is to ensure the current transformer secon-
dary circuits are not inadvertently open-circuited
during insertion of the last plug.

NOTE

ensure that the ammeter is on the correct range
and that it is connected to its test leads.

The connections will depend upon the scheme and details must
be obtained from the appropriate diagrams. If it is necessary to
use the DC auxiliary supply during testing, then a test link may
be fitted across the sockets in the Test Plug.
