Maintenance - Siemens SDR 15.5 kV Instruction Manual

General
The recloser switch unit of the SDR vacuum
recloser is designed to require no
maintenance for 10,000 operating cycles
under ANSI/IEEE C37.60 "usual service
conditions." Regular monitoring and, if need
be, replacement of the batteries is necessary
for the three-phase type SDR controller.
Regular maintenance is required for
components in the controller, primarily
consisting of checks of cleanliness, tightness
of connections, battery test and similar
activities.

Maintenance

Hazardous voltages.
Will cause death, serious injury or property damage.
Always de-energize and ground the equipment and all terminals before
performing any work near high-voltage conductors.
Work on the recloser switch unit or the control cubicle should be
performed only by qualified personnel.
Do not open the inner panel of the control cubicle, as interior parts
energized at voltages higher than 50 V are present.
Do not disconnect control or sensor cables while recloser is energized,
as connectors contain energized parts.
Maintenance plan

part of regular inspections reflected in Table
3.
