GE Multilin C30 – I/O Logic Controller System

The C30 controller system is a programmable logic controller for performing substation or bay automation that can also be used for expanding the I/O capability of protection devices and replacing Sequence of Event (SOE) recorders.

• Powerful and deterministic programmable logic suitable for creating most customized automated substation control solutions
• Advanced IEC 61850 Ed. 1 and Ed. 2 certified implementation, complete settings via SCL files and IEC 61850-9-2 process bus solution ensures interoperability, device managing optimization and reduced cost of ownership
• Routable GOOSE (R-GOOSE) enables GOOSE messages going beyond the substation, which enables wide area protection and control applications
• Reduced bay or station wiring through the use of high-speed peer-to-peer communication for sending and accepting control commands from other relays
• Modular hardware architecture allowing for flexibility in the I/O configuration to support most bay management applications
• Robust network security enabling Critical Infrastructure Protection through user command logging, and dual permission access control
• Supports latest edition of waveform capture (COMTRADE 2013) simplifying fault records management
• Application flexibility with multiple I/O options including high density I/O, programmable logic, modularity, and specific customization
• An integrated large, full color display, provides real-time visualization and control of the protected bay, via a bay mimic as well as annunciator functionality and graphical visualization of phasors
