General Instructions

ekor.gid 

6.2.  ekor.gid connections

6.2.1.  Wall-mounted

Once the ekor.gid unit has been installed on the wall, the 

general connections are carried out, which are required to 

carry out the remote reading of the Low Voltage meters. 

These connections are the following: 

1.  4 voltage signals (3P+N) per each Low Voltage board to 

be monitored (and therefore, per Medium / Low Voltage 

transformer in the Substation), with a maximum of 

2 boards in the ekor.gid unit. This wiring comes from 

the Low Voltage board and is connected to each of 

the two voltage connectors available on the ekor.gid 

unit, where preferably the left connector is used for 

transformer 1 and the right one for transformer 2. 

2.  6 voltage signals (Ia1-Ia2, Ib1-Ib2, Ic1-Ic2) per each Low 

Voltage board to be monitored (and therefore, per 

Medium / Low Voltage transformer in the Substation), 

with a maximum of 2 boards in the ekor.gid. This wiring 

comes from the Low Voltage board and is fed through 

the packing gland located in the lower part of the 

cabinet, to the disconnectable and short-circuitable 

terminals of the ekor.gid unit.

Low Voltage Compartment connections

Connections for the Monitoring of the Medium Voltage 

network

In the event that the Substation is Monitored, in addition 

to the general connections, the following connections 

between the ekor.gid unit and the corresponding 

Monitoring cubicle must be carried out: 

1.  Two power supply wires (+48 V

DC

 / 0 V) to feed the 

Medium Voltage network relays, which come out of a 

packing gland in the Communications Compartment of 

the ekor.gid unit and go to the Monitoring cubicle. This 

circuit is protected by a miniature circuit-breaker.

2.  Two wires (+48 V

DC

 / 0 V

DC

) that come out of a packing 

gland in the Communications Compartment of the 

ekor.gid unit and supply the protection cubicle trip 

circuit. This circuit is protected by a miniature circuit-

breaker.

3.  An Ethernet cable sheath with 8 wires, prefabricated 

and ending on both sides with an RJ-45 connector, 

which on one side is connected to the ekor.rci  unit of 

the Monitoring cubicle and on the other side to a hub 

located inside the Communications Compartment of 

the ekor.gid unit. The cables are also fed in through the 

packing gland located at the top part.

4.  Two wires (+48 V

DC

 / O V

DC

) for the battery charger 

alarms that come out of a packing gland in the 

Communications Compartment of the ekor.gid unit 

and go to the Monitoring cubicle.

Connections for Automation

In the event that the Substation is Automated, in addition 

to the general connections, the following connections 

between the ekor.gid  unit and the ekor.uct unit or the 

corresponding  cgmcosmos-2lpt cubicle must be carried 

out: 
1.  Two power supply wires (+48 V

DC

 / 0 V) that come out of 

a packing gland in the Communications Compartment 

of the ekor.uct unit or cgmcosmos-2lpt unit and go to 

the  ekor.gid unit, also entering through the packing 

gland in the Communications Compartment of the 

ekor.gid unit. 

2.  An Ethernet cable sheath with 8 wires, prefabricated and 

ending on both sides with an RJ-45 connector, which 

on one side is connected to the ekor.ccp unit of the 

ekor.uct unit or the cgmcosmos-2lpt cubicle and the 

other side to a hub located inside the Communications 

Compartment of the ekor.gid unit. The cables are also 

fed in through the packing gland located at the top 

part.
