Installing the pole mount bracket

Perform the following steps to install the pole mount bracket 
on the control:

1.

Line up the holes in the pole mount bracket with the 
holes in the CBC enclosure.

2.

Secure the pole mount bracket to the CBC enclosure 
using the supplied screws.

Performing the pole mount installation

Perform the following steps to install the CBC-8000 control 
on a utility pole:

1.

Temporarily place the control in the mounting location 
and place a mark on the utility pole for the top hole in the 
pole mount bracket.

2.

Install a lag bolt into the pole and hang the control on the 
pole using the top hole in the pole mount bracket.

3.

Install a second lag bolt into the pole through the lower 
hole in the pole mount bracket.

4.

Install an earth grounding wire from the grounding lug, 
located on the bottom of the control, to the earth 
following standard industry practices. 

The ground resistance should be less than 20 ohms 
when complete. The grounding wire should be 16 gauge 
or larger.

The recommended best practice is to install a grounding 
wire from the CBC grounding lug, located on the bottom 
of the control, to a common ground point at the top of 
the capacitor bank rack. A separate or independent 
grounding wire 

must

 run from the capacitor bank rack to 

the earth following standard industry practices.

Note:

The CBC-8000 control is grounded through the ground 
lug located on the bottom of the control. This ground 
lug is not tied to the neutral side of the control’s input 
power (L2/N). Please make sure that the ground lug is 
tied directly to Earth ground to ensure that the case 
and internal components are safely grounded.

5.

Route the power cable and the control cable from the 
capacitor bank junction box to the control.

Equipment damage. 

 

 

Do not drill connection holes into the top of the cabinet. 
Connection holes in the top of the cabinet will allow moisture

 

to seep into the control and damage the components or 
cause control misoperation. 

 

 

Failure to comply will void the control’s factory warranty.

T249.0

6.

If the control includes a standard 5-pin, 7-pin or 14-pin 
DIN male connector for sensor inputs, use a 
corresponding 5-pin, 7-pin or 14-pin DIN female 
connector to connect the power and the control cable 
wires to the control.

If a retrofit 8-pin DIN male connector is included, 
connect the corresponding sensor cable to the control.

Refer to 

DIN connector options on Page 22

 for the 

signal assignments for the DIN connector pins.

7.

Apply power to the control and wait for it to perform a 
diagnostic test. If the diagnostic test fails, contact your 
local Eaton’s Cooper Power series representative.

8.

Open the cover of the control.

9.

Press the 

MANUAL

 button to place the control in 

Manual mode. The control should remain in Manual 
mode while on site. This prevents the control from 
operating on remote commands or local metrics while 
personnel are near the capacitor banks.

10. Program the control’s clock with the time and date. This 

can be performed from the front panel (FUNC 064) or by 
using the ProView NXG software. The date is entered in 
MM-DD-YYYY format and the hour is entered in 24-hour 
format. Refer to the 

CBC-8000 capacitor bank control 

ProView NXG application software programming guide 
(MN916002EN)

 for detailed procedures.

11. If additional maintenance work needs to be performed in 

the primary voltage area, such as closing a fuse or 
replacing a switch, follow your utility company’s standard 
procedures. For example:

a. Press the 

TRIP

 button on the control to open the 

capacitor bank.

b. Verify that the capacitor bank tripped open.

c. Open the cutouts on the capacitor bank to disconnect 

the capacitor bank from high voltage power.

d. Wait a minimum of 5 to 10 minutes, or whatever time 

is required by your utility training procedures, for the 
shunt to bleed off.

e. Perform the required maintenance work.

f.

When the required work is completed, close the 
cutouts on the capacitor bank to restore high voltage 
power to the capacitor bank.

g. Press the 

CLOSE

 button on the control to close the 

capacitor bank.

12. When the work is completed, place the control in 

Remote or Automatic mode by pressing the 

REMOTE

 or 

AUTO

 button.

13. Apply a seal to the control and record the serial number 

of the control and other necessary information.

Panel mount installation

A panel mount bracket is required for surface mount 
installations. The panel mount bracket is 

not

 included when 

ordering a panel mount control. The panel mount bracket 
must be ordered separately. 

As shown in Figure 31, the bracket must be installed on the 
control prior to installing the CBC-8000 control on a panel.
