GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

HIGH VOLTAGE / CURRENT

This equipment is capable of providing POTENTIALLY LETHAL VOLTAGES!

Improper operation or test practices may result in injury or death to the operator

or surrounding personnel.

The operation of High Voltage test equipment should only be performed by

personnel familiar with HIGH VOLTAGE testing and safety procedures. The

operator of this equipment must be aware of all hazards associated with High

Voltage testing. The operator is responsible for himself and others in close

proximity of the testing area.

Some General Safety Practices for working with High Voltage Test Equipment

have been listed below for your reference.

Become familiar with your instrument before performing an actual test

Know your work area, check that all circuits are de-energized and locked

out.

Never work alone; always work with another qualified worker.

Mark off entire work area with barriers and warning tape.

Make all personnel aware of your testing activities.

Be aware of dangerous conditions that may arise from energizing a test

specimen.

Never modify test equipment, modifications to equipment could introduce

an unknown hazard or hinder a designed-in safety feature.

DO NOT operate damaged equipment. Remove power, and do not use the

(Note: The above current levels are based on the 30 minute duty cycle. To estimate the current draw on

the facility power at different duty cycles, multiply the above currents by the ratio of the output currents.

Ex.: An HC-75C will draw approximately 7.5 times the above current at the 1 second duty cycle.)

SECTION 3: INTRODUCTION

Phenix Technologies' High Current Test Sets represent a new era of electrical testing technology. This

design is based on time-proven concepts and the power offered by an embedded 32-bit microcomputer.

High reliability Semiconductor Controlled Rectifiers (SCRs) have been combined with a phase angle firing

system to deliver precisely repeatable current pulses with minimal distortion.

The output is continuously variable over the entire range by means of tap selection and vernier

adjustment. Utilizing a motorized vernier and programmable tap selector, the test set has both auto-jog

and current-hold capabilities. These features can be controlled from the HC Controller User Interface

Panel, or from a laptop computer plugged into the HC Controller’s serial port.

The test set incorporates a standard measurement and control interface that is operated with special

cards installed in an embedded computer system, under software control. The combination of automated

hardware and a highly intelligent monitor/controller provides an extremely versatile test instrument

capable of exceptional accuracy. This combination also allows for the manual control or remote computer

control of the High Current Test Set.

SECTION 4: SAFETY

Several safeguards have been built into the Phenix Technologies high current test sets; however, these

safeguards are only effective if safe work practices are also used. The test set and these procedures

have been designed for use by knowledgeable electrical workers who have been properly trained in its

use.

Please note the following instructions:

1. The test set must be grounded before input power is connected.

2. All power must be disconnected before the test set is ungrounded.

3. The tests described here are to be used only on DE-ENERGIZED and isolated circuit breakers.

4. High currents are generated during the tests and extreme caution must be used. Follow all safety

procedures.

5. Refer to Section 5 for Installation Instructions.

SECTION 5: INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

1. Position the test set in the desired position. For 2-cabinet units, place the regulator cabinet on top

of the transformer cabinet.

The following procedure is only required for 2-cabinet units (HC-12C and HC-20C):

a. Connect the interconnect ground cable from the regulator cabinet to the

transformer cabinet.

b. Connect the four interconnect power leads from the regulator cabinet to the

transformer cabinet, connecting B1 to B1, B2 to B2,

c. Connect the control interconnect cable from CON208 on the regulator cabinet to

CON209 on the transformer cabinet.

The following procedure is only required for models HC-12C, HC-20C and HC-40C:

d. Check the input power jumper configuration in both the Regulator and

Transformer cabinet. It is VERY important that these are set correctly. See the

tag on the inside panel of the unit and the following page.

2. Connect a #4 AWG ground cable from a good electrical ground to CON201 (green Cam-Lock

connector). An additional ground stud is provided on the transformer cabinet for an optional

connection of an external ground cable.

3. Position the HC Controller (on top of the cabinet works well) and connect the computer

interconnect cable. Take special care not to pinch or damage the interconnect cable. Next, plug

the HC Controller into the provided ground fault outlet and position all wires and cables behind

the controller to prevent catching or snagging during movement.

4. Ensure that the main input circuit breaker (CB201), control power switch (SW201) and vernier

circuit breaker (CB202) are all in the OFF position.

5. Connect the input power cables to CON202 and CON203 (black Cam-Lock connectors), and then

to the facility power. See the Specifications section for input ratings. Generally, cable sized

thermally for the current listed in the specifications (30 minute duty) is sufficient.

6. Perform the Power On Procedure as described in Section 6.
