1 Introduction

This manual contains the information needed
to install the low voltage (LV) cabinet of the
medium voltage OVR-15, 27 and 38 vacuum
reclosers and put them into service.
For correct use of the product, please carefully
read this manual, along with instruction, operation
and maintenance manual for the high voltage unit.
OVR-15, 27 and 38 reclosers are designed for
different installation configurations. However,
the mounting structure for this apparatus allows
further technical construction modifications
(at the customer's request) to adapt to special
installation requirements. Consequently, the
information provided in this manual may not
contain instructions for special configurations.
In addition to this manual, it is, therefore, always
necessary to consult the latest technical
documentation (electric circuit and wiring
diagrams, assembly and installation drawings,
any protection coordination studies, etc.),
especially regarding any variants requested
to standardized configurations.
Only use original spare parts for maintenance
operations. For further information, please refer
to the ABB sales office.
All installation, commissioning, operation
and maintenance must be carried out by
skilled personnel with in-depth knowledge
of the apparatus.

1.1. Environmental protection program

OVR-15, 27 and 38 reclosers LV cabinet is
manufactured in accordance with ISO 14001
standards (guidelines for environmental
management).
Production processes are carried out in compliance
with standards for environmental protection in
terms of reduction in energy consumption as well
as in raw materials and production of waste
materials. All this is thanks to the medium voltage
apparatus manufacturing facility environmental
management system.
1.2. End-of-life recycle/disposal
ABB is committed to complying with relevant
legal and other statutory requirements for
environmental protection according to the ISO
14001 standard. It is the duty of the end user
to facilitate end-of-life recycling and disposal
according to applicable regulations.
During disposal of the product, it is important to
