Test: Tests red Service LED and Audible Alarm, and changes state of Prior to installing SPD, install, rotate and tighten box lug terminals to the top of the SPD phase connection tabs, pointing toward breaker location. Dry Contacts. Alarm Silence: Turns Audible Alarm off. (Alarm is deactivated when Mount the SPD using supplied hardware, per previous instructions. the Silence LED is illuminated.) Connect the neutral connection by wire or bracket as appropriate. Install conductors: Identify each panelboard buss as Phase A, B and C. Surge Counter Count: (if equipped) Increments optional surge counter When the SPD is installed, the SPD’s Phase Tabs will have near proximity by one (+1). above energized panelboard busses. The SPD’s phase connections must correspond to buss phases. Connect conductors from the SPD’s Phase Surge Counter Reset: (if equipped) Resets optional surge counter to Tabs to corresponding circuit breaker connections. For example, when zero (0). energized, the SPD Phase Tab for Phase A must be located above the panelboard buss for Phase A. The SPD Phase Tab for Phase B must be located above the panelboard buss for Phase B. The SPD Phase Tab for Phase C must be located above the panelboard buss for Phase C. Conductors must be as short and straight as possible. Use gentle radius on any bends. Do not kink wires. Prevent wires from encroaching breaker locations. -
Page 15: Maintenance
Sustained Overvoltages, as well as voltage surge protection. The large variations in operating conditions ungrounded generators, and/or usual load transfer systems. encountered by units in the field make it difficult to set a fixed maintenance interval, but inspections utilizing the built-in diagnostics Abnormal N-G Voltage Indicators should be performed at least on a weekly or monthly basis. This SPD include N-G voltage indicators. If the SPD detects excessive Corrective Maintenance (Repair) N-G voltage, the Red Service LED will blink and the Audible Alarm will cycle. This condition requires immediate attention as the SPD will fail. The Siemens TPS3 unit is designed for years of reliable, trouble-free Incorrectly bonded distribution systems damage SPDs. If the XO or N-G operation. Unfortunately, in an extreme case, you may experience an bonding jumper is not installed, the electrical system has no reference to alarm condition. In this event, no attempt should be made to repair the ground. It becomes an ungrounded system. Please see previous section TPS3 itself. There are no serviceable parts within the unit. Any SPD that regarding SPDs on ungrounded systems. Such systems are known to requires service should be appropriately removed from the electrical eventually produce abnormally high L-G voltages. SPDs will attempt distribution equipment, and replaced by a new SPD of the same model. - Page 16 Siemens Canada Limited 1577 North Service Road East European Authorized Representative Oakville, ON L6H 0H6 Obelis s.a.
