Control Testing; Testing An Installed Control - Eaton COOPER POWER Series M Installation And Operation Instructions

SPEAR™ Single-Phase Recloser System

Control testing

CAUTION
Equipment misoperation . Do not connect this control
to an energized recloser until all control settings have
been properly programmed and verified . Refer to the
programming information for this control . Failure to
comply can result in control and recloser misoperation,
equipment damage, and personal injury .
IMPORTANT
The SPEAR single-phase recloser control can be taken out
of service for testing and placed back into service without
de-energizing its recloser and interrupting the system.
However, during the time the control is out of service, the
recloser is inoperative.

Testing an installed control

The following tests to determine initial operation of the
SPEAR single-phase recloser control can be performed
while connected to an operating recloser.
N otee: These are the only tests performed on an installed,
operating control.
1. Verify operating status of all indicator lights by pressing
any key to reactivate the display and active LEDs.
2. Check the operational values for current, voltage, and
other metering information.
N otee: Scroll through the LCD display messages by pressing
the  and  cursor movement arrows underneath
the LCD display on the programming panel (Figure

The following message will appear: 082 Test
Battery (CONFIRM).
C. Press the ENTER key. The (TESTING...) message

If the battery is not OK, one of these messages
● ●
will appear:
"ATTENTION – 1" indicates Battery Test Trouble*
"ATTENTION – 2" indicates Battery Test Failed
"ATTENTION – 3" indicates Battery Test
Currently Running
"ATTENTION – 4" indicates Battery Test
Blocked**
* Battery Test Trouble indicates that the test results
were not lower than battery failure voltage (15V)
and not higher than the test voltage (22.8V).
** Battery Test Blocked indicates a battery test
was attempted with battery power only. The battery
cannot be tested when the control is powered
from the battery only (no AC power).
D. The battery test results can be viewed by pressing
the down arrow. The following information will be
displayed:
VBat = XX.XX Volts
IBat = -X.XX Amps
4. Verify the Control OK LED is illuminated on the control
operator panel. The AC POWER LED indicates the
presence of AC power (Figure 37).
N otee: The control includes a Power Save feature that will
turn off the LEDs and backlit LCD display after 15
minutes of inactivity at the front panel (no buttons
pressed). The CONTROL OK and HOT LINE TAG
LEDs are not affected by the power save mode.
Pressing any key on the front panel will turn the LCD
backlight on and restore all LEDs to their current on/
off states.
All other tests described in this Control testing section
require the SPEAR single-phase recloser control to be
removed from service, connected to a bypassed recloser, or
tested at a location where the proper testing equipment is
available.
