English term or phrase: isolated lock/door status
Bonjour à toutes et à tous,

Le projet sur lequel je travaille concerne des équipements pour armoires de centres de données (rack de charge, station d'accueil de chargeur, etc.). et je ne comprends pas l'expression "isolated lock/door status" dans la phrase suivante :

"BMS Integration - BMS interface is made possible with isolated lock/door status Voltage Free Contacts and lock control inputs."

J'ai l'impression que "isolated lock/door status" et "Voltage Free Contacts" sont en fait des éléments séparés et qu'il manque une virgule dans la source, mais je n'en suis pas sûr.

Voici ma proposition pour l'instant : "Intégration BMS - L'intégration par interface BMS est rendue possible par les états distincts de verrou/porte, les contacts libres de potentiel et les entrées de contrôle de verrou."

Pourriez-vous éclairer ma lanterne ?

Merci d'avance pour vos contributions :)

contacts secs isolés signalant l'état de la porte / du verrouillage
Explanation:
There is no comma missing, all these terms describe the same thing: these are voltage-free contacts (contacts secs) that are 'floating' or '(galvanically) isolated' — i.e. they have no electrical connection to the first piece of equipment that they are being used to monitor.
And their function is to indicate or signal the status of either the door itself (e.g. open / closed), or of its locking (e.g. locked / unlocked)

By the way, this is wrong too: « L'intégration par interface BMS est rendue possible ... » — here, it is interfacing TO the BMS that is made possible...
