Form 6 Recloser Control Testing
Instructions
These instructions describe the testing of the Form 6
recloser control.
Communication Ports
Verify that the communication settings have been appropri-
ately configured for your selected communication protocol.
For information on configuring communications refer to
the appropriate instructions:
• S280-70-4 Form 6 Control Programming Guide
• S280-70-9 Form 6 Triple-Single Control
Programming Guide
Contact Input/Outputs
Standard Default Supervisory Input
Control and Output Status Contacts
Test inputs/outputs by asserting appropriate alarms per
the ProView™ software to verify that all contact outputs
operate (open and close). Figures 8 and 9 show the loca-
tion of the controls module manufacturing numbers.
Refer to Tables 2 and 3 for Operating Voltage
Requirements for Standard and Optional Supervisory
Inputs.

TESTING
CAUTION: Equipment damage; misoperation.
External leads must be shielded and the shield must be
grounded at both ends. Terminate each lead with a 320
Vac, 160 Joules metal oxide resistor (MOV), or equiva-
lent, at the remote end. Attach MOVs between the
leads and ground. Failure to properly shield and protect
leads can result in equipment damage and/or uninten-
tional operation. G117.3
