Publisher: Elora Grid
Updated: 2026-11-03
Lookup label: STHA
Drawing use: Schematic
Reference families: Manufacturer

Representation: Functional block
Installation focus: switchrooms
Input: Room temperature measurement
Output: High-high temperature alarm

Distinguishes the documented high-high condition from an earlier temperature warning.

## In plain English

### What this block does

Distinguishes the documented high-high condition from an earlier temperature warning.

### A simple example

In a switchroom, water ingress, temperature, humidity and equipment-service alarms can be sent to the station controller with separate point names so an operator can identify the affected area. For this reference, the drawing identifies “Room temperature measurement” at the input and “High-high temperature alarm” at the output. Any shutdown action needs a separately specified scheme.

### What the drawings help you do

Start at the named input: Room temperature measurement. Identify its source device or document and the state represented on the drawing. Follow the named output: High-high temperature alarm. Cross-reference its destination and separate the command from confirmation that the equipment responded.

### Terms

- Input: Room temperature measurement
- Output: High-high temperature alarm
- Application reference: An explanation of a named drawing function or circuit relationship; the project documents define the equipment and its connections.

## What it represents

Distinguishes the documented high-high condition from an earlier temperature warning. Environmental supervision turns measurements or contact states into clearly named room-service indications. A sensor measures a condition; the supervisory function decides whether the assigned alarm or control response is needed.
In a switchroom, water ingress, temperature, humidity and equipment-service alarms can be sent to the station controller with separate point names so an operator can identify the affected area. For this reference, the drawing identifies “Room temperature measurement” at the input and “High-high temperature alarm” at the output. Any shutdown action needs a separately specified scheme.
Keep sensor location, alarm thresholds, delay and monitoring coverage in the room-services schedule. An environmental alarm is a diagnostic input, not a complete assessment of electrical equipment condition. The functional block is an independent explanation of this named application. Equipment-specific ratings, terminal connections and operating conditions must be established in the project documentation.

## How to read it

- Start at the named input: Room temperature measurement. Identify its source device or document and the state represented on the drawing.
- Follow the named output: High-high temperature alarm. Cross-reference its destination and separate the command from confirmation that the equipment responded.
- Any shutdown action needs a separately specified scheme.
- Keep sensor location, alarm thresholds, delay and monitoring coverage in the room-services schedule. An environmental alarm is a diagnostic input, not a complete assessment of electrical equipment condition.

## Information to show or reference

- Label the source and connection reference for room temperature measurement.
- Identify the destination and defined state of high-high temperature alarm.
- Record the equipment or control-document revision supporting this functional block.
- Check this application limit in the project design: Any shutdown action needs a separately specified scheme.

## Important distinction

Any shutdown action needs a separately specified scheme. This reference describes the named application; it does not establish a new IEC graphical symbol, an ANSI device-function number or an exact manufacturer connection diagram.

## Facts
