SCADA Communication Setup
SCADA Capability
The IntelliRupter fault interrupter can communicate
with a SCADA system via the DNP protocol by using
a WAN radio or ber-optic transceiver installed in the
communication module. Alternately, an appropriate
SCADA communication device can be housed in a separate
pole-mounted enclosure.
DNP Implementation
DNP implementation of the IntelliRupter fault interrupter
operating system conforms to DNP V3.00 Subset
Definitions, version 2.00, available from the DNP
Users Group. Refer to S&C Instruction Sheet 766-560,
“IntelliRupter

Fault Interrupter: DNP
Points List and Implementation.”
SCADA Antenna
A standard N type antenna connector for a WAN radio
is furnished on the underside of the IntelliRupter fault
interrupter base. A surge suppressor for the antenna is
mounted inside the base.
The antenna can be mounted directly to the connector
as shown in Figure 15. If the optional bracket-mounted
antenna has been furnished, the antenna is positioned
2½ feet (762 mm) horizontally from the bottom of the base.
