Form 6 triple-single microprocessor-based rack mount recloser control
22 INSTALLATION AND OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS MN280084EN July 2018
Standard default supervisory input control and
output status contacts
The standard Form 6 Triple-Single rack mount recloser
control includes three control contact inputs and five
status contact outputs. The standard default I/O terminal
connections are identified in Figure14. A discrete interface
board accessory is available if additional I/O is required. The
accessory includes eight control contact inputs and eight
status outputs as identified in Figure15.
All of the control inputs and status outputs are user-
configurable via the Idea Workbench. To avoid configuration
time, the most common control inputs and status outputs
are included as default values. Refer to Figure13 and
Figure14 and Table5, Table6, and Table7. Refer to
Service Information S280-70-9 (ProView 4.X.X) or S280-70-
23 (ProView 5.X.X) Form 6-TS Control Programming Guide
for additional information.
NOTICE
External leads must be shielded and the shield must
be grounded at both ends. Terminate each lead with
a320VAC, 150 Joules metal oxide varistor (MOV), or
equivalent, 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
unintentionaloperation.
IMPORTANT
Shielding and Surge Protection of Supervisory Cables
All supervisory operation and control monitor leads must
be protected within shielded cables. Refer to Figure16 or
Figure17 as appropriate.

Before placing the control and the
recloser into service
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 personal injury. G110.3
Prior to placing the control and recloser(s) into service,
the following installation procedures must be properly
completed and verified:
1. Removable insert labels changed. (Not required – user-
preference option.)
ote:N Refer to Using removable inserts section in this
manual for more information.
2. NOVA-TS reclosers (3) installed according to all locally
approved standards and practices.
3. AC and DC disconnect switches installed.
4. Control and reclosers properly grounded in accordance
with guidelines in this manual and the appropriate
recloser manual.
