Switchgear cabinet monitoring arrangement
First Claim
1. In a switchgear cabinet monitoring arrangement having a base monitoring device (2) arranged in a switchgear cabinet and having at least one bus connection (2.2), a plurality of sensor connections (S) and at least one triggering connection (AST), for at least one of monitoring, controlling and regulating switchgear cabinet functions, the improvement comprising:
- at least one further monitoring device (3) arranged in a respective further switchgear cabinet being assigned to the base monitoring device (2), the at least one further monitoring device (3) connected to the base monitoring device (2) by a field bus (FB), wherein a data exchange via the field bus (FB) is provided between the at least one flier monitoring device (3) and the base monitoring device (2);
the at least one further monitoring device (3) having the sensor connections (S) and the at least one triggering connection (AST) and designed for at least one of monitoring, controlling and regulating functions of the respective further switchgear cabinet;
the sensor connections (S) of the base monitoring device (2) and the at least one further monitoring device (3) selected from a group consisting of temperature sensors, smoke detectors, vibration sensors, door position sensors, humidity sensors, and combinations thereof; and
only the base monitoring device (2) having a network connection unit (2.1) for making a network connection (NW) and data received from the at least one further monitoring device (3) being processed and at least one of evaluated and transmitted via the network connection unit (2.1) to the network in a control device (2.3) of the base monitoring device (2).

Abstract
A switchgear cabinet monitoring arrangement having a base monitoring device which is arranged or intended to be arranged in a switchgear cabinet and has at least one bus connection, several sensor connections and at least one triggering connection, for monitoring, controlling and/or regulating switchgear cabinet functions. Various monitoring and control functions of several different switchgear cabinets, along with a relatively simple construction, are achieved because a further monitoring device arranged or to be arranged in a respective further switchgear cabinet is assigned to the base monitoring device, which is connected to the base monitoring device by a field bus. The further monitoring device also has several sensor connections and at least one triggering connection and is designed for monitoring, controlling and/or regulating switchgear cabinet functions.
