GNSS Timing Generator TCG 02-G

Product Information

Precise Time Clock for the smart grid

The TCG 02-G from Tekron is a highly accurate, fully featured GPS and GLONASS (GNSS) clock. Offering multiple oscillator options, Time Code and Frequency outputs, TGC 02-G fits virtually any timing application. With enhanced cyber security features that support NERC CIP requirements, the TCG 02-G is designed for use in modern day smart grid / smart substations, electricity distribution, transmission, and generation protection. In addition, industrial application systems and traditional substations are equally provided for.

This master clock synchronises multiple Intelligent Electronic Devices (IEDs) within a network, including protection relays, synchrophasors, event recording and remote telemetry units to enable accurate time stamping. The TCG 02-G is available with one of two expansion module options.
