7.6 Final inspections before energizing

The recloser should be tested for mechanical and
electrical operation before it is energized in the
power system. Note that the recloser is shipped
in the OPEN (OFF) condition from the factory.
Do not ground either side of the battery or
attach ground to the terminals of the actuator
operating coils. This will result in permanent
damage to the unit.
Once the recloser has been installed fully with all
mechanical and electrical connections completed,
conduct the following mandatory inspection before
energizing the recloser on the main lines:
1. Ensure that the recloser is properly leveled
and securely anchored.
2. Perform a final check to ensure all hardware
is tightened.
3. Securely tighten terminals and ground
connections.
4. Verify that control cable is properly connected,
routed and secured.
5. Ensure that both the HV and LV cabinets
are grounded as described in this manual.
