CAUTION
This equipment requires routine inspection and
maintenance to ensure proper operation . If it is not
maintained, it can fail to operate properly . Improper
operation can cause equipment damage and possible
personal injury .
CAUTION
This equipment relies on dielectric fluid to provide
electrical insulation between components . The dielectric
strength of the fluid must be checked on a regular basis,
as part of the routine maintenance inspection, to ensure
that it is at or above minimum dielectric requirements .
Use of this equipment with dielectric fluid that does
not meet minimum requirements can result in internal
flashovers that will damage the equipment and can
cause personal injury .

Frequency of maintenance
To assure proper and trouble-free operation, oil interrupting
reclosers must be maintained when they have operated
the equivalent of a rated duty cycle (see Table 2). Vacuum
interrupting reclosers must be maintained when they
have operated the equivalent of twice the rated duty cycle
(see Table 2).
ANSI Guide C37 .61-1973, "Guide for the Application,
N
otee:
Operation and Maintenance of Automatic Circuit
Reclosers" , provides a procedure for converting
the rated standard duty cycle into an equivalent
duty cycle based on the actual operating duty of
the recloser.
