- 7. ABB © ABB Switzerland - 7 Usage of PLC Line Traps (II) n PLC-signal transmission demands: n HF-blocking elements (e.g. PLC Line Traps) are needed at both coupling points n to ensure defined impedance conditions independent from switching condition of the substation n to prevent undue loss of carrier signal into the substation n to block HF-signals from other sections of the power grid to reuse RF- frequency bands n Energy transportation demands: n HF-blocking elements must be of very low impedance at power frequency and must satisfy all power frequency current demands
