Install the PowerMonitor 5000 Unit
Only qualified personnel can install, wire, service, and maintain this equipment.
Refer to and follow the safety guidelines and pay attention to all warnings and
notices in these instructions.
Mounting Considerations
Mount the PowerMonitor™ 5000 unit in a suitable protective enclosure. Select an
enclosure that helps protect the unit from atmospheric contaminants, such as oil,
water, moisture, dust, corrosive vapors, and other harmful airborne substances.
Make sure that the enclosure protects against personal contact with energized
circuits.
The ambient temperature within the enclosure must remain within the limits
that are listed in Appendix B
, Technical Specifications. Select an enclosure that
provides adequate clearance for ventilation and wiring for the power monitor and
other equipment to be installed within the enclosure.
See
PowerMonitor 5000 Unit Dimensions on page 16 for dimensions and space
guidelines for the power monitor.
When installed within a substation or switchgear lineup, we recommend that the
power monitor is mounted within a low-voltage cubicle, which is isolated from
medium and high-voltage circuits. Be sure that the mounting panel is properly
connected to a low-impedance earth ground.
Mount the enclosure in a position that allows full access to the unit. Install the
unit with the ventilation slots in the bottom and top of the unit unobstructed to
assure adequate free convection air flow to cool the internal electronic
components.
ATTENTION: Electrostatic discharge can damage integrated circuits or
semiconductors. Follow these guidelines when you handle the module:
• Touch a grounded object to discharge static potential.
• Wear an approved wriststrap grounding device.
• Do not open the module or attempt to service internal components.
• Use a static safe workstation, if available.
• Keep the module in its static shield bag when not in use.
