Commissioning
When testing the device with directly connected test equipment, make sure that no
other measurement quantities are connected and that the trip and close circuits to the
circuit breakers and other primary switches are disconnected from the device.
During the commissioning procedure, switching operations will be carried out. It is
assumed for the tests described here that this is possible without danger. Therefore,
these tests are not intended for operational checks.
Warning!
When operating an electrical device, certain parts of the device inevitably have
dangerous voltages. Severe personal injury or property damage can result if the
device is not handled properly.
Only qualified people shall work on and around this device after becoming thoroughly
familiar with all warnings and safety notices in this instruction manual as well as with
the applicable safety steps, safety regulations, and precautionary measures.
The main points to observe are:
•
The device is to be grounded to the substation ground before any other connections
are made.
•
Hazardous voltages can exist in the power supply and at the connections to current
transformers, voltage transformers, and test circuits.
•
Hazardous voltages can be present in the device even after the power supply
voltage has been removed, i.e. capacitors can still be charged.
•
After removing voltage from the power supply, wait a minimum of 10 seconds
before re-energizing the power supply. This wait allows the initial conditions to be
firmly established before the device is re-energized.
•
The limit values given in Technical Data (Chapter 10) must not be exceeded, neither
during testing nor during commissioning.
DANGER!
Current transformer secondary circuits must be short-circuited before the
current leads to the device are disconnected!
If test switches are installed that automatically short-circuit the current transformer
circuits, opening these test switches (placing them in the "Test" position) is sufficient
provided the short-circuit function has been previously tested.
Warning!
The following procedures are carried out with dangerous voltages present. Therefore,
only qualified people who are familiar with and adhere to the safety procedures and
precautionary measures shall perform the procedures.
