System Architecture & Signal Flow
The IC693PTM101A connects to the Series 90-30 backplane via the standard I/O bus connector. Current transformer (CT) and potential transformer (PT) secondary signals from the monitored circuit are wired to the module’s front-panel terminal block. The module’s onboard DSP samples voltage and current waveforms at high frequency, computes all power parameters in real time, and writes results to mapped PLC registers accessible by the CPU module (e.g., IC693CPU374, IC693CPU364). The CPU can then use these values in ladder logic, structured text, or function block programs for control, alarming, or data logging to a SCADA/historian system via Ethernet (IC693CMM321) or serial (IC693CMM311) communication modules.

Technical FAQ
Q: Is the IC693PTM101A compatible with all Series 90-30 CPU models?
A: Yes. The module is compatible with all Series 90-30 CPUs including IC693CPU311, IC693CPU321, IC693CPU331, IC693CPU341, IC693CPU351, IC693CPU360, IC693CPU363, IC693CPU364, IC693CPU374, and IC693CPU375.
Q: Does this module require a specific firmware version on the CPU?
A: GE recommends CPU firmware version 9.0 or later for full feature support. Earlier firmware versions support basic power measurement functions.
Q: Can the IC693PTM101A be used in a hot-standby redundancy configuration?
A: The module is supported in Series 90-30 hot-standby systems (IC693CPU374/IC693CPU375 pairs) with standard redundancy switchover behavior.
Q: What CT ratio is required?
A: The module accepts standard 5A secondary CT output. CT ratio selection depends on the primary current of the monitored circuit and must be configured in the PLC hardware configuration (Proficy Machine Edition / Logicmaster 90).
Q: Is a new unit available, or only refurbished?
