The Challenge of DC Signal Diversity Direct-current measurement and control are essential to every power and industrial automation system, yet DC signals rarely come in a single form. In substations,   110/220 VDC control power   must be monitored accurately to ensure dependable tripping and closing operations. In industrial environments,   PLCs and DCSs   typically accept only standardized analog inputs such as   4–20 mA   or   0–5 V , while field devices often output unscal

Beyond Safe Operation — What Defines a Good Test Switch In protection and control systems built to ANSI standards, performance is not just about “safe switching.” Engineers must also evaluate   configuration flexibility, installation practicality, and environmental endurance . The   TSBA Series ANSI-Type Test Switch   from ODES was developed with these parameters in mind. It provides modular configuration options, robust electrical ratings, and accessories tailored for modern

Re-engineering Safety in Relay Testing In ANSI-based protection systems, commissioning teams must achieve two goals simultaneously:   guarantee zero CT open-circuit risk   and   complete isolation, measurement, and verification within limited panel space . A well-designed   ANSI-type test switch and plug assembly   transforms these complex tasks into a single, repeatable operation. The   ODES   TSBA Series Test Switch   from ODES is purpose-built for this environment. It inco

During protection testing, engineers often need to isolate the protection relay from its connected CT, PT, and control circuits while maintaining circuit integrity and operator safety. The ODES   TSB-14 Testblock , when paired with its test handle, performs three critical tasks in one motion: Controlled isolation  between the relay and external circuits. Automatic CT short-circuiting  to protect the CT secondary. Structured timing  that guarantees “short first, open later.” T
