Caution:
Where UL/CSA listing of the equipment is not required, a high rupture capacity
(HRC) fuse type with a maximum current rating of 16 Amps and a minimum dc
rating of 250 V dc may be used for the auxiliary supply (for example Red Spot
type NIT or TIA).
For P50 models, use a 1A maximum T-type fuse.
For P60 models, use a 4A maximum T-type fuse.
Caution:
Digital input circuits should be protected by a high rupture capacity NIT or TIA
fuse with maximum rating of 16 A. for safety reasons, current transformer
circuits must never be fused. Other circuits should be appropriately fused to
protect the wire used.
Caution:
CTs must NOT be fused since open circuiting them may produce lethal
hazardous voltages
3.5 EQUIPMENT CONNECTIONS
Warning:
Terminals exposed during installation, commissioning and maintenance may
present a hazardous voltage unless the equipment is electrically isolated.
Caution:
Tighten M4 clamping screws of heavy duty terminal block connectors to a
nominal torque of 1.3 Nm.
Tighten captive screws of terminal blocks to 0.5 Nm minimum and 0.6 Nm
maximum.
Caution:
Always use insulated crimp terminations for voltage and current connections.
Caution:
Always use the correct crimp terminal and tool according to the wire size.
Caution:
Watchdog (self-monitoring) contacts are provided to indicate the health of the
device on some products. We strongly recommend that you hard wire these
contacts into the substation's automation system, for alarm purposes.
