SICAM Fault Sensor Indicator (FSI) 6MD2314 detects the phase-to-phase (short circuit) fault and phase-to-earth fault on the MV overhead line network. The device indicates both the temporary fault and permanent fault via an optical indication.
SICAM FSI (6MD2314) device is developed using the latest generation of hardware technology and is a member of the Siemens SICAM® short-circuit indicator product family.
SICAM FSI is used to improve the distribution grid reliability and reduce the power outages on the MV overhead line.
SICAM FSI can be mounted (in groups of 3 or 6 or 9) on each phase after the branching points and sectionalizer.
The device is available in 2 variants:
- 6MD2314-1AB10 Stand-alone
The faults are signaled directly from the device by LEDs. Depending on the fault type, a specific flashing sequence is generated. - 6MD2314-1AB11 with communication
In addition to local LED display, Phase-to-phase fault and phase-to- earth fault are transferred to SICAM Fault Collector Gateway (FCG) via a secured short-range radio communication.SICAM FCG communicates to a higher-level control center using the IEC 60870-5-104 protocol or via XMPP over a GPRS network.
