5. After all of the disconnect devices have been closed, loads such as
lighting circuits, motor starters, contactors, etc. may be energized.
a. When power factor correction capacitors are energized with the
motor windings and the start-up procedure requires that the
respective motors be jogged or inched, temporarily disconnect the
power factor correction capacitors. For more information on power
factor capacitors and MCC units, see publication
2100-AT001x-EN-P, Power Factor Correction Capacitors for Bulletin 2100
Motor Control Center Starter Units.
b. Verify that any acceleration times are within application
specifications.
NOTE: Excessive starting currents and/or acceleration times may cause
inverse time circuit breakers, power fuses, overload relays and other
components to overheat and/or shutdown equipment.
