  • Page 9: Installation Notes

    The ILC device must be sourced from a dedicated 5 amp breaker. Introduction Use these instructions in conjunction with standard utility safety guidelines and procedures when installing Aclara’s Intelligent Load Control (ILC) device. Utility supplied high voltage field wiring must use copper conductor only and have a +90°...
  • Page 10: Safety Warning

    Only copper conductors should be used. Wire gauge is load dependent for OTES relays, and Aclara specifies a range of 30 to 10 AWG, with the maximum size being 10 gauge for relay terminals. Minimum wire gauge should be determined by the particular relay, the National Electric Code (NEC), and local standards.
  • Page 11 Open the door, and remove the four screws securing the high voltage barrier to the enclosure. Configure the 24 volt relays by moving the associated jumper to set the desired configuration. ILC devices are shipped from the factory with the 24 volt relays configured as normally closed relays.
  • Page 12 Installation Instructions Connect appropriately sized conduit to the openings for the supply line and desired load connections using compatible conduit fittings, such as the Hubbell P050NGYA for ½” conduit. The ILC device supports 50/60Hz input power for 208 to 277VAC. Refer to the following table for Port 0 and Port 1 configuration values.
  • Page 13 Refer to the wiring diagram when routing the desired load wires through the appropriate conduit. Remove approximately.28-.31 inches (7.0- 8.0 mm) of insulation from the end of each wire, so as to make a good connection without leaving any copper exposed. ILC device tamper detection requires that the input power and any connected relay ports use the same electric service phase.

  • Page 15 Secure the wires in place by carefully tightening the connector screws to 7.0-8.9 in-lbs. Over-tightening the screws or allowing the connector to move while tightening the screws may damage the connector or PC board connection. Reinstall the inner cover by torquing four screws to 10 in-lbs., and close the other door without locking it.
  • Page 16 Wiring Diagram If the fault LED light is not illuminated, verify the door is closed and torque the screw to 1 in-lb with a low speed driver (below 400 rpm). Secure the door screw with a utility approved lock or security seal. The door screw will accept cables and locks up to .070”...
  • Page 17: Troubleshooting

    Troubleshooting The ILC device contains LEDs that provide the installer with information needed to verify that the system is wired correctly. These LEDs are visible through the holes in the inner cover of the ILC device as shown in the following image. Observing a solid blue light through the inner cover vents (within 5 minutes of power up) indicates the system has successfully connected to the network.
