Kyle Form 5, Form 5 UDP, Form 5 DC NOVA Recloser Control Installation and Operation Instructions

Customer Connections for AC Power

!

CAUTION: Equipment damage. Do not drill con-

nection holes into the top of the cabinet. Connec-

 

tion holes in the top of the cabinet will allow moisture to

seep into the control and damage the components or

cause control misoperation. Failure to comply will void

the control’s factory warranty.

T249.0

 

 

 

Input power to the Form 5 control is connected to terminal block TB1 (located behind the operator panel, on the left side of the control). See Figure 33.

Input power is required:

•To power the control

•To provide voltage and power metering

•For voltage detection for loop scheme accessory

•For the low voltage closing accessory

•For the convenience outlet accessory

Power Supply Verification

Incoming power is routed to the Power Supply module which is factory configured for either 120 or 240 volt oper- ation. The power supply module is factory wired to TB-1 and protected by the 3.15 Amp fuse labeled F2 on the power supply operator panel. A label on the Power Supply module indicates the proper voltage rating. See Figure 32.

Inserting and Releasing Wire

Connections

In Terminal Block TB1, each terminal has a wire locking clamp that has to be opened to accept and secure the wire. A 3/32 inch flat-blade screwdriver is inserted into each terminal hole to open the locking clamp. Figure 34 provides the procedure for opening and securing the wire connections.

The wire is inserted into the terminal connection hole while the screwdriver is placed into the wire release and locking hole.

Follow the same procedure to release wire connections.

Power Connections

Customer connections to TB1 vary upon application. TB1 connections provide power and metering inputs to the control. Figures 34 through 39 show the customer connections for 120 Vac and 240 Vac low voltage closing.

Figures 34 through 37 illustrate customer connections for single-phase transformers. Figure 34 shows standard wiring with BØ transformer connected to TB1-2 location. Other phases should be connected from the single-phase transformer by wiring the BLACK wire from the Power Supply module to the terminal of the respective phase as shown in Figure 38 and 39. For example, Figure 39 shows connection from the Power Supply module to an AØ transformer.

The transformer required for power should be a minimum of 5kVA for low-voltage ac closing reclosers and 1kVA for dc closing reclosers.

Note: An out-of-service Form 5 or Form 5 UDP control (for either Wye or Delta) can be powered by connecting to TB1-2 (hot) and TB1-4 (neutral) to an appropriate power source.

IMPORTANT: Delta connections are not used on any Form 5 control accessory that utilizes the low voltage transfer relay.

Customer Connections for Metering

Customer voltage inputs for metering are field configurable on the RIF module to accept 12, 120, or 240 Vac. The incoming power supply must match the indication for incoming power on the RIF module. The factory-configured settings for the RIF are displayed on the module panel. See Figure 19.

See RIF Module Configuration section of this manual.
