Energizing the Equipment
Energize the Equipment
To energize the equipment, follow these steps.
1. Review any additional instructions supplied for the proper operation of
special units such as variable frequency drives and soft starters with
appropriate and qualified personnel.
2. Check that there is no load on the MCC when it is energized.
3. De-energize all main and unit disconnect devices.
4. Check to see if any associated remote devices are de-energized.
5. Energize the MCC remote power source.
6. Energize the main devices followed by the feeder devices and the branch
circuit devices.
Always energize from the source of the system, working towards the
loads.
ATTENTION: This procedure is provided as general guidance for energizing a
newly installed CENTERLINE® MCC after the Final Check procedure has been
completed. See Final Checklist Before Energizing
for more information.
ATTENTION: Energizing a MCC for the first time is potentially dangerous.
Serious damage and or personal injury can result when power is applied.
Therefore, allow only qualified personnel to energize the equipment.
ATTENTION: When working on or near energized electrical equipment,
follow established electrical safety-related work practices. Refer to NFPA 70E
Standard for Electrical Safety in the Workplace.
ATTENTION: Operate the disconnect-device handles s with a firm, direct
motion. Do not ‘tease’ the handles into the closed (ON/I) position.
