TPS3 01 Installation Instructions for: 400/600 amp S1/S2 and All SE Panels

If model number includes W option suffix, additional instructions follow

Note that this installation is very similar to TPS3 used in S3 Panels except that the neutral connector is wired rather than pigtailed and the neutral connector is at line end of the panel.

The following instructions are for the installation of Siemens TPS3 01 and L1 SPD modules in Siemens 400/600 amp S1/S2 and all SE Panels. All hardware is supplied for complete installation of the TPS3 module.

Determine the mounting location of the TPS3 in the distribution equipment.Ifitistobemountedinthetopofthedistributionequipment or relocated after installation, internal phase labeling connections must be changed to ensure proper diagnostic board indication.

These modifications should be made prior to installation. If the TPS3 module is field installed in the bottom, or if it is mounted in a factory assembled panelboard, the internal phase label connections are correct as shipped.

Internal Phase Labeling Connections

A single 14 wire ribbon cable is attached to the display pcb.

When the ABC phase sequence changes to CBA, the single connector is removed from the normal “ABC” jack and installed in the jack labeled “CBA”

Lock off all power supplying this equipment before working on it. Remove the trim and dead front.

Install the mounting bracket (Item 5) to the base rail as shown in Figure 3 using two (2) of the #10 thread forming screws (item 3).

Position the TPS3 unit on the panel base rail so that the phase tabs are on top of the interior bus and the four mounting holes line up with the two holes in the base rail and the two holes in the mounting bracket.

Attach the TPS3 unit (item 1) to the base rail using four (4) of the #10 slotted hex washer head thread forming screws (item 3) provided as shown in Figure 3.

Fasten unit to the main bus using the phase connectors (item 6). The connectors will be attached to the unit with three (3) 1/4" hex head SEMS assemblies (item 2) provided. Then they will be connected to the interior with three (3) 1/4" carriage bolts and three (3) belleville washer nuts (items 7 & 8). Do not tighten at this time.

Fasten TPS3 neutral to panel neutral at the neutral connection point (item 4).

Torque all connections to the values as specified on the installation and maintenance instruction label affixed to the rear of the dead front.

Replace deadfront and trim.
