This is to prepare for variations in the dimensions between the enclosures (L + 250mm(9.84 in.)) or of approved drawing, errors in settling of the actual product size (L).
START-UP TEST 4.2 PRECAUTION DURING ENERGIZING After the installation is completed, please follow the procedure of test below to guarantee the quality. When the busway is first energized, check for short-circuit and ground fault due to poor 4.1 CHECK POINT BEFORE ENERGIZING installation.
MAINTENANCE After the first energization with Series HP, generally it infrared temperature regularly and compare the is not necessary to test with turning off the power if the result to the normal condition. following cases are met (maintenance-free). • When repairing, upgrading or replacing busway, Installation is carried out properly according to the it is necessary to remove dust.
MAINTENANCE 5.3 EXPANSION AND REPLACEMENT OF 3. busway is completely disconnected from the other BUSWAY LINE power sources. Safety guard should be installed before the line is re-energized. Due to the fluctuation of the load, it needs to expand or Product separation replace the line of the busway.
