Description
🔹 Product Description
The General Electric IS200EROCH1A, with the alternate assembly identification IS200EROCH1ADD, is an Exciter Regulator Options Board used in the GE EX2100 excitation control system. The board provides supporting functions for excitation regulation, including keypad interfacing, ground detection, tool/computer interfacing, and power distribution to associated excitation terminal equipment. In redundant regulator applications, the EROC also supports ISBus communication and redundancy-related signals. It is designed as a double-height 6U Eurocard with P1 and P2 backplane connectors and multiple front-panel interfaces. The board can be installed in compatible EX2100 regulator or excitation backplane configurations, depending on the system architecture.
