Section 6 Commissioning Overview This section provides tips and instructions to verify that the SEL-734B CAUTION Capacitor Bank Control is installed properly and is measuring the power The front-panel terminal test jacks are for testing only. Do not attempt to system correctly.
Verify the Measurements This procedure explains how to check the metered values through different interfaces. From the Front Panel Step 1. Press ENT on the front panel of the SEL-734B. and press ENT. Step 2. Select Meter and press ENT.
Close and Open the Capacitor Bank From the Front Panel The SEL-734B ships with the manual mode enabled by default. Manual mode allows you to operate the capacitor bank from the front panel. Step 1. Press the MANUAL pushbutton to ensure that manual mode is enabled.
The Full-Size Enclosure contains three pairs of output contacts (three open contacts and three close contacts) to control three single-phase capacitor bank switches. Auxiliary 52a and 52b contacts can be connected to the SEL-734B enclosure, but these are optional. Use the following guidelines to ensure the controller operates the switches properly.
Ensure the signal asserts when the switch is closed. ➤ After each operation, ensure the SEL-734B indicates the proper switch status. Compact Enclosure Compact enclosures contain one open contact and one close contact to control one three-phase switch, or three single-phase switches that are electrically connected.

Sensor Cable The SEL-C532 cable provides a pigtail to connect to the control power transformer and a neutral sensor (see Figure C.5 and Figure C.4). The SEL-C539 cable provides a pigtail to connect to the control power transformer, and a 4-pin connector to plug into a Lindsey R-Z2981SS cable and neutral sensor (see Figure C.3).
A 7-pin circular connector mates with the enclosure, and a weather- tight seal mounts to a penetration on the junction box. The SEL-734B measures the output voltage of the control power transfer and uses the signal for capacitor bank control. The current sensor should be installed on the same phase on which the control power transformer is installed.
The enclosure plugs into the meter socket base, which provides all of the connections to the field devices. SEL does not provide the cabling to connect the field devices to the meter socket base. A-Phase...
