Features:
- Combines two current-sensor connection areas with a separate numbered terminal bank.
- Distinguishes a three-position interface from a larger 12-position connection.
- Provides two dedicated grounding points on the Group 2 FCSA assembly.
DS200FCSAG2A is identified for the LS2100 static starter power-conversion cabinet, where its Group 2 catalog code distinguishes the installed current sensing interface.
The board layout separates LEM1 and LEM2 from TB1 through TB5, giving sensor connections and field-terminal connections recognizable physical areas.
E1 and E2 supply defined ground-contact points, while the unequal connector sizes help prevent the supply-side and control-side interfaces from being treated as interchangeable.
The General Electric DS200FCSAG2A Current Sensing Interface Board may still be available for purchase and support from Apter Power beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).

Comparing the two current-sensing routes
- LEM1 area: One sensor connection is grouped at the first LEM position on DS200FCSAG2A.
- LEM2 area: The second current-sensor input remains physically separate at LEM2.
- One-channel symptom: A fault limited to one reading can be traced from its LEM area without moving the other input.
- Two-channel symptom: Simultaneous loss calls for a check of common board seating and control connections before both sensors are disturbed.
Preserving the numbered field-wire positions
- Terminal range: The DS200FCSAG2A field bank is numbered TB1 through TB5.
- Removal record: Each conductor should be tagged with its original terminal number before disconnection.
- Reconnection order: Returning one wire at a time reduces the risk of shifting the entire bank by one position.
- Post-work check: A new feedback error after cabinet work should be compared with the recorded TB positions before board failure is assumed.
Keeping the unequal interfaces distinct
- Small interface: One DS200FCSAG2A connector has three positions.
- Large interface: A separate connector provides 12 positions for the other board-level connection.
- Function check: Connector size must be paired with its documented circuit role rather than judged by nearby location alone.
- Insertion check: Alignment and seating should be confirmed without forcing a plug that only appears physically similar.
Protecting the assembly during cabinet work
- First ground: E1 is one of the two marked grounding points on DS200FCSAG2A.
- Second ground: E2 provides the other designated contact and should be inspected independently.
- Contact condition: Loose hardware, contamination, or damage at either point can complicate feedback diagnosis.
- Safe removal: De-energize the cabinet before handling the board and apply static-control precautions after isolation.
