How will a eld JB of conventional 4-20mA connection look di erent from that of FF JB. Wiring

Box Connection
Conventional Junction box
Convectional Junction box contains Terminal Strip and Earth Strip/earth bus bar only.
Categories

Instruments eld pair / core cable (From Instruments to Junction Box for transmitters, switches, valves, solenoid valve etc.) is
Select Category
terminated at one side of terminal strip and multi-pair cables (From Junction box to Marshalling cabinet/system cabinet/control
panel) are terminated at other side of terminal strip.

FF (Foundation Fieldbus) Junction box
FF Junction box generally contains

1. Spur termination board and Field Barrier

2. Trunk Termination Assembly
3. Surge Protector
4. Fieldbus terminator
5. Trunk Termination board

A typical FF JB arrangement is shown in Fig below. The internal layout of components may vary for di erent designs and
suppliers, however the components remains same mostly.
The cable connected to eld instrument (transmitters, switches, valves, solenoid valve etc.) is termed as Spur Cable and cable
connected to control system is termed as Trunk Cable.
The example used here is High Power Trunk concept, where Trunk is non IS and Spur is IS (IS – Intrinsically Safe).
As Trunk is non –IS, trunk termination assembly is physically Isolated by means of separator plate section inside JB to provide
separation between IS and Non IS signals.
Internal wiring is done by FFJB supplier. Field Engineer has to terminate Spur and Trunk cables at site on termination boards.
The FF JB design is based on segment design which will provide no of spurs and Trunk connected in single FF JB. Segment design
is a separate topic of discussion hence not covered here.
In some cases temperature multiplexers are used to connect temperature Element on FF segment. These multiplexers are
installed inside Junction box and this multiplexer JB is connected to FF JB as a spur like any other transmitter spur. A good
design engineering practice is to limit 1 to 2 no. Multiplexer in a segment.
