DANGER
WARNING

2
6F2S0755
Exposed terminals
Do not touch the terminals of this equipment while the power is on, as the high voltage generated
is dangerous.

It takes approximately 30 seconds for the voltage to discharge.
Fibre optic
When connecting this equipment via an optical fibre, do not look directly at the optical signal.
CAUTION
Earth
The earthing terminal of the equipment must be securely earthed.
CAUTION
Operating environment
The equipment must only used within the range of ambient temperature, humidity and dust
detailed in the specification and in an environment free of abnormal vibration.
Ratings
Before applying the DC power supply to the equipment, check that they conform to the
equipment ratings.
Connection cable
Carefully handle the connection cable without applying excessive force.
Modification
Do not modify this equipment, as this may cause the equipment to malfunction.
Disposal
When disposing of this equipment, do so in a safe manner according to local regulations.

1. Introduction
The Optical interface unit G1IF1 facilitates connection of the fibre optic protection signalling
channel of the GRL100 line differential relay to remote multiplexing equipment associated with
a switched telecommunications network. This manual should be used in conjunction with the
manual for the GRL100 relay.

2. Application
The Optical interface unit G1IF1 provides a connection between a fibre optic communications
channel and a switched telecommunications network. It is applied in the protection signalling
channel of the GRL100 line differential relay, allowing two GRL100 relays to communicate over
a telecommunications channel.
The G1IF1 provides an interface for connection of the fibre optic protection signalling port of the
GRL100 relay to remote multiplexing equipment having a standard CCITT G703 or X.21 type
interface to the electrical connections of a telecommunications system. Figure 2.1 illustrates the
application of the G1IF1 unit.
Figure 2.1 Application of G1IF1 Unit
In most situations the telecommunications equipment is remote from the protection equipment in
the substation. The G1IF1 unit is normally located close to the multiplexer and may be up to 2km
away from the GRL100 relay. The fibre optic cable must be either 50/125m (for distances up to
1km) or 62.5/125m (for distances up to 2km) and should be terminated with standard ST type
connectors.
The G1IF1 is connected to the switched telecommunications network via a multiplexer. The
interface is defined according to the CCITT G703 or X.21 standard. The connections should be
made using shielded, twisted pair cable.

3. Description
3.1 General Description
Figure 3.1 illustrates the operation of the Optical interface unit. The GRL100 relay and the
telecommunications multiplexer are illustrated to facilitate the explanation.
The G1IF1 unit provides three fibre optic connectors. The transmitter / receiver pair TX/RX
connect to the GRL protection signalling channel. The clock transmitter CLK can be used to
transmit the CCITT-G703-1.2.3(1.2.2) or X.21 timing signal, although it is not required in
applications such as this, where the receive signal from the G703-1.2.3(1.2.2) or X.21 is
synchronized to the clock signal. The CLK is not used for the CCITT-G703-1.2.1 interface. An
additional connection point, labelled SPARE (not shown in Figure 3.1), can be used for fitting of
a spare fibre optic cable.
Optical to electrical and electrical to optical conversion is performed on the transmit and receive
signals from the GRL100 relay respectively. CMI type encoding is used for the optical signals.
CMI encoding always results in a 50% duty factor, making the signals easy to check during
commissioning.
Code conversion is performed for connection to the CCITT-G703 or X.21 interface. G703 or
X.21 is a synchronous interface, and provides a 64kHz timing signal, which the G1IF1 uses for
synchronisation. The connections to the G703 or X.21 interface use balanced drivers and
receivers in accordance with the G703 or RS422A/V.11 standard.

3.2 Electrical Connections
A 12-way ring terminal, connector TB1 of G1IF1 provides connections for the auxiliary dc
supply as well as test points for the telecommunications channel. The G1IF1-01 provides the
additional X.21 connector is a 15-way DIN type.
The G1IF1 auxiliary dc supply input has a nominal 48V rating as standard for communications
equipment. However the G1IF1 can also be provided with dc 110/125V rating or dc 220/250V
rating for 110/125V or 220/250V substation battery supplies.
The connections to the G1IF1-01 are shown in Figure 3.2 (a), not including the test points. The
figure also illustrates the functions of three removable links. The X.21 interface circuit is
designed for 500V isolation against the rest of the system. However, it may not be desirable to
leave the common connection floating, particularly where high levels of interference are
expected. Therefore the X.21 common can be tied via a 10kresistance to the frame ground, by
fitting link J1. Alternatively, the fitting of links JIG and JFG connects the X.21 common directly
to the frame ground.
It is recommended that a shielded cable be used for the X.21 interface. The shield should be tied
directly to the frame ground by the fitting of link JFG.
