Voltage Calibration Binding Posts 
These binding posts can be used with an external voltmeter 
to monitor regulator P2 or U2 voltage. Displaying “U2 
Cal” or “P2 Cal” in the <DIAGNOSTICS> menu defines 
the voltage (U2 or P2) you can read at these binding posts. 
The binding posts are dual banana-style receptacles. 
 
Note that the voltage measured at these binding posts is not 
turns-ratio corrected. By contrast, the metered voltage 
presented on the display screen (under <METER>) is 
corrected by control-program software (see Section 4.3.7 
and Section 4.3.8 for configuring the voltage transformer 
U2/P2 turns ratio). 
 
 
 
 
2.7 Fuses 
Power Fuse 
This 6.0 Amp fuse protects the MJ-5 Control Panel circuit 
and the tap changer motor circuit. 
 
External Power Source Protection Fuse 
This 6.0 Amp fuse protects the MJ-5 Control Panel circuit 
and the tap changer motor circuit when powered through 
the external source binding posts. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
2.8 Terminal Strip Connections 
Complete descriptions of all terminal contacts are 
provided in Appendix K. 
 
Terminal strips are located on the lower back side of the 
MJ-5 Control Panel. These terminals can be used to provide 
access to certain microprocessor and other control 
functions. 
 
The terminal strips include four terminal pairs for VRC 
control and external inhibit function. The terminal strips 
include the Current Circuit terminal pair. 
 
Each terminal strip contact is screw type, to facilitate 
connection and disconnection of external wiring. 
 
Current Circuit Terminal Contacts 
The nominal 200 mA secondary of the regulator current 
transformer (CT) is routed through these terminals labeled 
C and C2. This terminal pair is provided with a removable 
shorting bar to accommodate auxiliary apparatus. These 
terminals are shorted at the factory and must remain shorted 
unless an appropriate external device is attached. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Open CT secondary will result in high  
voltage at CT terminals. 
 
Will result in death or serious injury including 
equipment damage. 
 
To prevent: 
 
Do not operate with CT secondary open. Short 
circuit or apply burden at CT secondary (C2-C) 
during operation.  
Hazardous voltage present on various 
control leads when regulator is energized.  
 
Could result in death or serious injury 
including equipment damage from 
contact with live line conductors 
 
To prevent: 
 
Bypass the regulator and de-energize 
before removing accessory items from the 
control box.  
Voltage applied at calibration terminals 
may energize regulator with high voltage 
through voltage transformer.  
 
Could result in death or serious injury 
 
To prevent: 
 
Do not connect any voltage source at the 
voltage calibration terminals. 
Improper external power connection will 
place 120V on the ground circuit. 
 
May result in minor or moderate injury 
including equipment damage. 
 
To prevent: 
 
Observe proper polarity of external 
power supply.
