EP-2 Explorer Series Accessories

This document provides specifications for the EP-2 Explorer Series II accessories for connecting to Motor Control Centers (MCCs). The EP-2 box is passive and isolates voltages up to 500V, connecting to MCCs via current transformers, voltage inputs, and a mixed signal output port. It allows for safe, online motor testing without power disruption using only low voltages below 5V. Notes provide guidance on connecting different motor types.

interruption of motor operation for EP-2 operation.
Consistent Results Notes:
! No risk of Mis-connection 1)For medium & high voltage motors, voltage inputs are to be
connected to the Pt’s the following way:
! Gain values of sensor array stored in EP-2 a)Three phases are to be connected to the hot secondaries
(120V typical) and to the ground, respectively.
Accuracy of Results b)Ground of the PTs secondary has to be connected to the
ground input of the EP-2.
! Calibration values stored in EP-2 2)For medium and high voltage motors, the Baker CT donuts
are to monitor the secondary of the CTs (5A typical) in the
! Motor ID embedded in EP-2 MCC.
3)For monitoring of VFD motors, the electrical connections
are to be made between the motor and the output of the VFD.
4)In any connection above, the EP-2/MCC cable is to be
connected to the DB25 of the EP-2. The other end of the EP-
2/MCC cable is to be panel mounted to the exterior of the
MCC.
