HOT LINE TAG ON/OFF Toggle Switch and LED
Indicator
Hot Line Tag is provided for live-line work applications. All
closing operations are disabled when the Hot Line Tag
feature is activated.
Hot Line Tag prevents all closing attempts from the control
and shifts protection to one trip-to-lockout on the composite
curve of the Hot Line Tag definite time and the TCC1 curve
(whichever is faster). Hot Line Tag takes precedence over
Cold Load Pickup, Non-Reclosing, and Fast Trips Disabled.
Hot Line Tag is activated from either the operator panel
toggle switch, serial communications, or a discrete SCADA
function. All sources must be off to de-activate Hot Line
Tag.
To activate the function from the operator panel, flip toggle
switch up to the ON position. See Figure 7. The LED
indicator illuminates when the function is active.
The Hot Line Tag function may only be reset by the
source which initiates it. For example, if Hot Line Tag is
activated at the operator panel, the reset function is only
possible at the operator panel, and not via SCADA
command.
TRIP (Lockout) Pushbutton
The TRIP pushbutton (Figure 7) provides front-panel
access to trip (lockout) the recloser. When pressed, the
TRIP pushbutton opens the recloser and locks out the
control.
Note: In the event of main microprocessor failure, the trip circuit
can operate independent of the main microprocessor.
CLOSE Pushbutton
When pressed, the CLOSE pushbutton (Figure 7) returns
the control to the initial or home sequence position, closing
the recloser. The control is ready for the start of a new trip/
close sequence.
Note: The Close Malfunction alarm must be reset before
Closing will be allowed.
Note: Pressing the CLOSE pushbutton from the Lockout
position initiates Cold Load Pickup (CLPU) protection, if
the feature is enabled.
The user does have the ability to block COLD LOAD
PICKUP through the LCD menu or by configuring one of
the Option one-touch function keys via the Idea
Workbench feature in ProView.
If the recloser is closed, pushing and holding the CLOSE
pushbutton does not activate the Cold Load Pickup
feature. See Cold Load Pickup in the Control Features
section of this manual.
CLOSE CIRCUIT DISABLE
Close Circuit Disable (Figure 7) is a removable fuse that,
when removed from the front operating panel, disables the
close circuit from the control to the recloser. Removing the
fuse from the control disables all electrical closing of the
recloser and provides a physical disconnect to the recloser
closing circuit. As a result, the control cannot perform a
close operation. This disconnect overrides all close
functions and makes a remote or manual close operation
impossible.
Note: When the Close Circuit Disable fuse is removed, the trip
circuit remains active and will trip per the programmed
time current curve for a faulted condition.

WARNING: Hazardous voltage. Do not use Hot
Line Tag as a substitute for a visible disconnect.
Always establish a visible disconnect prior to performing
any work requiring a de-energized line. Failure to comply
may cause death, severe personal injury, or equipment
damage. T276.0
IMPORTANT: Hot Line Tag is intended solely for live-line
work applications, such as maintenance, repairs or
improvements to the distribution system, that occur
while the line remains energized.
IMPORTANT: Hot Line Tag activation does not cause
the recloser to trip open. It only prevents the recloser
from closing.
IMPORTANT: If the power save feature is enabled
(default), and more than ten minutes elapses since the
last panel operation, all the LEDs, except HOT LINE TAG
(if active), will turn off.
IMPORTANT: If the CLOSE button is pressed after the
Close Circuit Disable fuse is removed, do not reinstall the
fuse until after the ALARM LED illuminates (within
approximately five seconds) to indicate CLOSE
MALFUNCTION. Re-installing the Close Circuit Disable
fuse prior to the CLOSE MALFUNCTION ALARM indication
will cause the control to close the recloser.
