Nameplates
Two anodized aluminum nameplates are provided as stan-
dard; refer to Figures 9 and 10. One nameplate is placed
on the regulator tank. The other is placed on the control
in case the control is removed at a later date. Nameplates
provide a substantial amount of information necessary for
proper control function. Information such as CT ratio, PT
ratio, regulator type, and tap-changer type can be found on
the nameplates and are normally factory pre-programmed
into the control. It is recommended that this information
be verified prior to placing the control and regulator into
service. When calling Cooper Power Systems for service
or support-related issues, please obtain the catalog num-
ber and serial number found on the nameplate in order for
the factory to reference the proper drawings and support
information.
Mounting
A regulator can be mounted on a pole, a cross-arm plat-
form, or an elevating structure. Regulators are normally
provided with either pole-mounting brackets or a substa-
tion base according to their rating. An elevating structure
can be provided to simplify substation installation of regula-
tors requiring a specific live part-to-ground clearance.
The regulator control can be mounted on the regulator tank
or at a point remote from the unit. Rubber-covered cable is
available in 3.04 m (10 ft) incremental lengths from 3.04 m
(10 ft) to 15.20 m (50 ft) for interconnection between the
control and the regulator.
