SMARTPULSE™ MV INSTRUCTION MANUAL
Section 2 – Installation
This instruction booklet is intended as a general guidance tool for personnel installing Post Glover Resistors High
Resistance Grounding Systems. However, each unit is designed for a specific application/installation.
Please refer to the drawings supplied with your unit for ratings and other information. Appendix A contains dimension
drawings with information for standard medium voltage systems. Consult all specific equipment drawings furnished by
Post Glover Resistors, Inc., for your particular installation.
WARNING: Install only in access restricted locations.
2.1 Receiving
A preliminary inspection of the crate (or enclosure) should be made at this point to ensure that the unit was handled
properly during shipment. If damage is detected, contact the carrier immediately to file a claim.
2.2 Handling
Free-standing units have base channels for a forklift to use when moving the unit (NEMA 1 indoor units have top-
mounted lifting eyes). Do not attempt to move or lift the unit at points other than the base channels. Always store
the unit upright to avoid damaging the enclosure and/or controls. Do not stack the units.
NEMA 3R units have an additional top pan that is shipped loose and must be installed on-site.
2.3 Inspection
Inspect the enclosure for any signs of shipping damage such as dents, scratches or chips. Inspect the inside of the
enclosure for any loose wiring or bolts. Check the resistor for any signs of broken insulators or elements.
2.4 Storage
If the unit will be stored for some length of time, take the following precautions:
1. Remove the crate and thoroughly inspect the unit.
2. Store the unit in an area that is clean and dry and has moderate temperatures. Cover it with a heavy-duty plastic
cover or cloth.
3. To prevent condensation in units stored in damp areas, provide 120-200 watts of heat for the duration of the
storage period.
