240 vac power connections
A 240 Vac power source is required to operate the recloser.
A 120 Vac input power supply accessory is also available.
The source is brought into the operator mechanism cabinet
and connected to the terminal block mounted on the left
side wall of the cabinet. The terminal block is permanently
wired to the circuit-fused disconnect and the heater control
panel. Two 2 A fuses are included on the heater control
panel.
A schematic diagram of the recloser circuit and the
physical arrangement of the operator mechanism, with
parts identified, is shown in Figure 4. Figure 5 is an
interconnection diagram.
Remove recloser from service
1. Block ground tripping via the control panel.
2. Close all three bypass switches.
3. With a hotstick, pull down the yellow MANUAL TRIP
PULLRING under the cabinet.
4. The control will sense that the recloser is open.
5. Open the source and load disconnect switches.
6. Follow standard utility procedures regarding removal of
recloser from service.
