Initial Programming
Prior to Installation
The control must be programmed with all necessary
operating settings, all alternate profiles, and parameters
prior to operation with an energized recloser.
Note: Initial programming of the control is the responsibility of a
qualified technician or engineer familiar with control
functions and programming parameters required for the
specific recloser installation.
The control must be programmed with the Form 6 ProView
interface software. Refer to Service Information S280-70-4
(ProView 4.X.X) or S280-70-21 (ProView 5.X.X) Form 6
Microprocessor-Based Recloser Control Programming
Guide for additional information.
Note: The Pole-mounted Control checkbox in the ProView
System Configuration screen must be selected for all Form 6
pole-mount controls. This includes both pole and substation
applications.
Control / Recloser Compatibility
The Form 6 pole-mount recloser control is adaptable to the
following Kyle reclosers:
WE*, WVE27, WVE38X, VWE, VWVE27, VWVE38X, RVE,
VSA12, VSA16, VSA20, VSA12B, VSA20A, VS012, VS016,
NOVA15**, NOVA27** and NOVA38**.
* This control is not compatible with Form 1 Type WE reclosers
below s/n 300 and RE reclosers below s/n 400.
** Control-powered NOVA reclosers that are manufactured after
September 2004 require a Voltage Trip/Close (VTC) interface
for tripping and closing. This VTC requirement applies to three-
phase control-powered NOVA reclosers with a Type A or a Type
D mechanism and Form 5, Form 5 LS/UDP, Form 6, and Form
6 LS controls with the control-powered interface. These
reclosers and controls are equipped with 19-pin control cable
receptacles. Refer to RECLOSER VTC INTERFACE and
CONTROL VTC INTERFACE sections of this manual for
additional information.
Reclosers manufactured prior to June 1989 are equipped
with Type A bushing current transformers. These reclosers
were designed for use with Form 2, Form 3, and Form 3A
controls. Because the Form 6 recloser control is designed
for use with reclosers equipped with Type B current-
sensing Transformers, reclosers retrofitted with Form 6
recloser controls should be retrofitted with Type B current
transformers. All reclosers manufactured since 1989 are
equipped with Type B (1000:1, 1000/500:1, or 2000:1)
sensing CTs.
Reclosers equipped with Type B sensing CTs are compatible
with all Kyle recloser controls (Form 2, Form 3, Form 3A,
Form 4A, Form 4C, FXA, FXB Form 5, Form 5 LS/UDP, and
Form 6 recloser controls), and are identified with the
following label prominently displayed on the recloser sleet
hood or the front of the operator cabinet:
S280-70-3

CAUTION: Equipment misoperation. Do not
connect this control to an energized recloser until
all control settings have been properly programmed and
verified. Refer to the programming information for this
control. Failure to comply can result in control and
recloser misoperation, equipment damage, and per-
sonal injury. G110.3
IMPORTANT: Program all protection profiles. Unused
alternate profiles should be programmed with the same
settings as one of the applicable profiles. Default settings
on unused alternate profiles can cause unnecessary out-
ages if they are below normal system requirements.
CAUTION: Equipment misoperation. Check minimum
trip values prior to changing an alternate profile. Failure
to do so may cause misoperation of the recloser under
load conditions. T280.1
