For special conditions such as frequent levering in operations, contaminated environments, and 
high temperature/humidity conditions, the inspection frequency should be a minimum of twice 
per year. 

 

3.

 

Fault interruptions have the greatest impact on the MiniMod.  MiniMod that have been subjected to 15 
full rated fault interruptions should be immediately inspected and the schedule for inspection and 
maintenance should be re-evaluated based upon the inspection results. Additionally, because of the 
variability of system fault characteristics, if there are any customer uncertainties in the records of the 
magnitude, duration, or other fault details, increased inspection frequency should be considered. 

 
4.

 

The unit should be visually examined to make sure there is no cracking of the insulation parts and 
damage done to the internal components. 

 
5.

 

Create and maintain a dated permanent record of all inspections, maintenance performed, actions taken, 
observations made, and measurements taken. Not only will this provide valuable historical information, it 
can help to establish whether or not the present schedule needs to be adjusted. 

 
6.

 

Perform ongoing visual inspections, when possible, of all equipment on a regular basis. Be alert for an 
accumulation of dirt in and around the primary contacts, loose hardware and or discolored insulation.  

 
For assistance in establishing or updating a detailed Inspection and Maintenance schedule for a specific 
application, please contact your local Eaton representative. 
 
General Torque Guidelines: 

Bolts  and  screws  must  be  properly  torqued.  This  is  especially  true  if  part  and/or  accessories  are  added  or 
replaced. The table below provides guidelines on torque levels. The table is intended as a general guideline 
and should be  applied in conjunction  with the  experience and  good judgment of the individual performing 
the work.
