General
If using a transformer-rated meter, make sure the installation current is within the current rating of the AGI RLC assembly.
A transformer-rated meter installation can support higher loads than the current rating of the AGI RLC assembly.
Overheating and equipment damage can result if the installation current exceeds the AGI RLC assembly current rating.
The Advanced Grid Infrastructure (AGI) Remote Load Control (RLC) polyphase interrupter allows the utility to connect or
disconnect three-phase loads up to 480 V. The AGI RLC polyphase interrupter is available with either a 120 A or a 200 A
maximum current rating.
When coupled with an A3 ALPHA meter
or an integrated wireless WAN option board, the AGI RLC can be controlled using the EnergyAxis System. Additionally, the
A3 ALPHA can provide essential metering and monitoring for your remote polyphase loads.
While the AGI RLC polyphase interrupter can be coupled with another controller (such as a third-party device using the
auxiliary control terminals), this leaflet provides general instructions for mounting the polyphase service control device and
placing the A3 ALPHA meter into service.
For instructions on placing the A3 ALPHA meter
IL42-4001Q or later.
For instructions for the A3 ALPHA meter with Wireless WIC into service, see A3 ALPHA meter with wireless
communication option, see IL42-4036A or later.

The A3 ALPHA meter is sold separately. For more information, see the "A3 ALPHA meter for use with AGI RLC polyphase
interrupter" data sheet (DS42-1018A or later).

  • Page 9 Be sure to waterproof conduit entrances (such as, using coax sealant) to help prevent water from entering the enclosure. Be sure to always follow your utility’s guidelines and practices when installing equipment. When installing the AGI RLC, use the following recommended procedures as well as your utility’s guidelines and practices: Mount the enclosure assembly to the pole using your utility’s guidelines and practices.
