S&C Instruction Sheet 716-504 9
The shipment contains:
• Three pole-unit assemblies: each pole-unit contains one stationary support insulator,
one rotating insulating support column and a blade and contact assembly
• Three interrupters, mounted to the high-speed base for shipping
• A high-speed base, enclosing the high-speed power train
• The appropriate number of mounting pedestals:
– Single pedestal is used for circuit-switchers rated 69 kV (with 48-inch phase spacing)
– Two pedestals are used for circuit-switchers rated 69 kV (with 84-inch phase
spacing), 115 kV and 138 kV
• A Series 2000 Circuit-Switcher Operator
• A container of miscellaneous operating-mechanism components and hardware—all
individually identied
• Any optional features or accessories specied, such as a grounding switch
DANGER
DO NOT disassemble or modify the interrupters. The interrupters are pressurized at
75PSIG. Serious personal injury can result.
Storage
NOTICE
Connect control power to the switch operator when storing it outdoors. The switch
operator is equipped with a space heater that must be energized during storage to prevent
condensation and corrosion within the operator enclosure.
If the circuit-switcher must be stored before installation, keep it in a clean, dry, and
corrosion-free area to protect it from damage. Make sure each skid rests rmly on the
ground and is reasonably level. Shoring under the skids may be necessary if the ground is
uneven. If storing outdoors or in a non-climate controlled area, connect control power to
the space heater inside the Series 2000 Switch Operator per the wiring diagram furnished.
Inspect the circuit-switcher regularly when storing for prolonged periods.
NOTICE
Please complete and mail the circuit-switcher registration card (enclosed in a vinyl
envelope located inside the operator) after the circuit-switcher has been installed. The
information requested on this card is vital to ensure prompt notification in the event field
modifications are needed.
