DS Agile Ethernet products and software applications are designed to meet a wide range of electrical substation needs, focusing on compliance with standards, scalability and modular design. These characteristics make the product suitable for various application scenarios from basic to high requirements, and ensure interoperability with other suppliers. GE Grid Solutions provides Ethernet products including switches, fully considering the mandatory requirements of substations, such as power supply and environmental anti-interference ability. The company also provides solutions for specific needs such as network redundancy management. Products can be used independently, or can be integrated to form a DS Agile digital control system (DCS). Main features include: up to 6 1Gbps ports (copper cable or optical fiber); Support the parallel redundancy protocol (PRP) and high availability seamless redundancy protocol (HSR) of IEC 62439-3 standard, as well as the coupling functions of RedBox, HSR QuadBox and PRP-HSR; Network protocols support SNMP, NTP, PTP (Precise Time Synchronization) and security protocols such as SSH, SFTP and HTTPS, while non-security protocols are disabled by default. Attention should be paid to lifting and electrical hazards in installation, commissioning and maintenance. Risks should be planned before lifting, and correct technology and personal protective equipment should be adopted; Electrical operation should strictly follow the equipment documentation, and be performed by personnel familiar with the procedures, isolate the equipment from work, and take appropriate protective measures for exposed terminals.

The DS Agile Ethernet products and software applications are designed to meet theneeds of a wide range of electrical substations. Emphasis has been placed oncompliance with standards, scalability and modularity.These features mean that the products can be used in most applications, from themost basic to the most demanding. They also ensure interoperability with othervendors.GE Grid Solutions provides a range of Ethernet products such as switches, which takeinto account the compulsory requirements of electrical substations, including powersupply and immunity to environmental constraints.GE Grid Solutions provides solutions to specific requirements such as networkredundancy management.The products can be used independently, or can be integrated to form a DS Agilesystem, which is a Digital Control System (DCS)

Installation, Commissioning and Servicing

Lifting Hazards

Plan carefully, identify any possible hazards and determine whether the load needs tobe moved at all. Look at other ways of moving the load to avoid manual handling. Usethe correct lifting techniques and Personal Protective Equipment to reduce the risk ofinjury.Many injuries are caused by:

•Lifting heavy objects

•Lifting things incorrectly

•Pushing or pulling heavy objects

•Using the same muscles repetitively.

Electrical Hazards

Caution:All personnel involved in installing, commissioning, or servicing thisequipment must be familiar with the correct working procedures.Caution:Consult the equipment documentation before installing, commissioning,or servicing the equipment.Caution:Always use the equipment in a manner specified by the manufacturer.Failure to do so will jeopardize the protection provided by the equipment.Caution:Removal of equipment may expose hazardous live parts. Please refer touser documentation before disassembly.Caution:Isolate the equipment before working on the terminal strips.Caution:Use a suitable protective barrier for areas with restricted space, wherethere is a risk of electric shock due to exposed terminals.
