As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the controlling and monitoring of the 6.6 kV transformer switch are both realized in the DCS operator station by the operator, including the remote switch-on and switch-off operation of the 6.6 kV transformer circuit breaker. After the microcomputer integrated protection device mounted in the switchgear detects a malfunction in the electrical circuit, the protection action enables the switching-off of the switch, and enables the feedback signal of the position of the switch, the alarm signal of the mechanical malfunction in the switchgear, and the electrical measurement signal obtained from the CT, PT mounted in the switchgear to be transmitted to the DCS control module via cables, and the DCS control module processes the signals logically according to the operation requirement and then gives a switch-on/switch-off command and a corresponding normal signal or alarm signal.

The signal line input port is connected to the 6.6 kV switchgear of the transformer and other switchgears relative to the alarm signal or interlocking with the control of the 6.6 kV switchgear.
