Form 6-LS Pole Mount Recloser Control Installation and Operation Instructions

Mounting the Control

WARNING: This equipment is not intended to
protect human life. Follow all locally approved
procedures and safety practices when installing or
operating this equipment. Failure to comply may result in
death, severe personal injury and equipment damage.
CAUTION: Follow all locally approved safety practices
when lifting and mounting the equipment. Use the lifting
lugs provided. Lift the unit smoothly and do not allow the
unit to shift. Improper lifting can result in equipment
damage.
Mount the Form 6-LS recloser control in a convenient,
accessible location. Mounting dimensions are provided in
Figure 10.
Note:
Unless otherwise specified, dimensions shown in mm
(inches).
A hole and keyway in the control mounting bracket
accommodates a 15.9 mm (5/8") bolt.

Locking the Control

The handles on the Form 6 control cabinet are able to
accept a padlock to prevent unauthorized access. For
cabinets with the quarter-turn latch, the top handle has two
locking holes provided depending on the diameter of the
lock shackle being used. Refer to Figure 10.
• Use the smaller hole for shackle diameters of .177-
295".
• Use the larger hole for shackle diameters of .295-.394".
DO NOT use a smaller shackle (.177-.295) in the
Note:
larger diameter hole as it will NOT LOCK the cabinet.

Grounding the Control

WARNING: Hazardous voltage. Recloser and
control must be solidly grounded. Follow all
locally approved procedures and safety practices when
grounding this equipment. Improper grounding can
result in contact with high voltage, which will cause
death or severe personal injury.
G102.1
The control cabinet must be grounded. A grounding
connector on the underside of the cabinet will accommodate
No. 14 solid through No. 4 stranded conductors.
G106.2
Suggested methods for grounding the control and recloser
are shown in Figures 11 and 12.
Figure 11 illustrates grounding methods for 4-wire multi-
grounded systems with local supply voltage transformer.
Figure 12 illustrates grounding methods for 4-wire multi-
grounded systems with remote supply voltage transformer.
For effective surge protection, all control and power
conductors for the Form 6 control must be routed parallel
to a corresponding ground path. For example, the AC
power supply for the control should be parallel to and equal
in length to the transformer ground path. The control cable
should be parallel to and routed close to the recloser
ground path.
G115.1
