Shunt-trip circuit breakers are required to interrupt the faulted circuit in the event of a ground fault. MarinaGuard panels require a site-supplied 120-Vac control voltage. MarinaGuard features a lockable non-metallic type 4X enclosure suitable for outdoor use.
These instructions should not be viewed as sufficient for those who are not otherwise qualified to operate or service this equipment. No responsibility is assumed by BENDER for any consequences arising from use of this docu- ment. Turn OFF all sources of electric power before performing any inspections, tests, or service on this equipment.
Installation and Connection 3. 3 Mounting Mounting feet are included with MarinaGuard panels. Place the mounting brackets over the octagon bosses. Fasten them to the enclosure using the provided 1/4”-20 x 0.25” SS, countersunk Phillips drive screws (30 in-lb torque limit).
CAUTION equipment damage. NOTE: Contact Bender if application requirements dif- fer from those above, or if a separately derived trip voltage is required. Locate the connections labeled as Number 5 in the diagram in Section 3.1 (Page 7).
Refer to figures below. CAUTION: Do not route the ground conductor through the current transformer. CAUTION NOTE: Only specified Bender current transformers are compatible. Refer to Section 6. for a list of devices. Third party current transformers are not supported. MarinaGuard...
3.8.1 RCM420 Ground-Fault Relay The MG-1.3 MarinaGuard incorporates a Bender RCM420 series ground-fault relay. Key settings affecting the performance of the MarinaGuard are listed below. For additional information on use, refer to the RCM420 user manual. 3.8.2 Main Alarm The RCM420 has an adjustable trip level range of 10 mA to 10 A (factory set- ting 30 mA).
Applying Power To apply power, close the circuit breaker or disconnect to the 120 VAC control power entering the panel. The MarinaGuard will immediately power on. The green READY light will illuminate. NOTE: During startup, the strobe may flash briefly.
