RESULT IN CONTACT WITH HIGH VOLTAGE, WHICH WILL CAUSE
DEATH OR SEVERE PERSONAL INJURY.
HAZARDOUS VOLTAGE. DO NOT RELY ON THE OPEN POSITION OF
THE YELLOW OPERATING HANDLE OR THE CONTACT POSITION
INDICATOR; IT DOES NOT ENSURE THAT THE LINE HAS BEEN
DE-ENERGIZED. ALWAYS ESTABLISH A VISIBLE DISCONNECT.
FAILURE TO FOLLOW PROPER SAFETY PRACTICES CAN RESULT IN
CONTACT WITH HIGH VOLTAGE, WHICH WILL CAUSE DEATH OR
SEVERE PERSONAL INJURY.
1. Block ground tripping via the control panel. Refer
to Service Information MN280095EN Form 7
Microprocessor Based Pole Mount Recloser Control
Installation and Operation Instructions.
EQUIPMENT MISOPERATION. DISCONNECT ALL CONTROL POWER
SOURCES PRIOR TO DISCONNECTING OR RECONNECTING THE
CONTROL CABLE FROM THE CONTROL. FAILURE TO COMPLY
CAN RESULT IN RECLOSER MISOPERATION AT THE TIME OF
DISCONNECTION OR RECONNECTION OF THE CONTROL CABLE TO
THE CONTROL.
2. Close all three bypass switches.
Note: If only one bypass switch is closed and the
recloser is opened via the yellow operating
handle, it is possible all three phases will trip
based upon mode selection.
3. Open the source and load disconnect switches.
4. Pull down all three yellow operating handles with a
hotstick. The yellow operating handle is located under
the recloser sleet hood.
If the recloser is set in single-phase trip/single-phase
•
lockout mode, only one phase will open.
If the recloser is set in single-phase trip/three-phase
•
lockout mode or three-phase trip/three-phase lockout
mode, all three phases will open.
The control will sense that all three recloser phases
are open.
DISCONNECT SWITCHES FOR AC SENSING AND POWER
CONNECTIONS ARE NECESSARY TO ISOLATE THE CONTROL FOR
