ELECTRICAL PROTECTION MEASURES
Dual Internal Fuses
1) Self-Resetting Thermal Fuse:
This fuse keeps the unit from overheating in instances where a
load in excess of the transformer’s capacity is present for an extended period of time. Once normal
operating temperatures return, the unit will reset and operation will continue.
2) Current Fuse:
This fuse shuts down the low-voltage output of the transformer during an
abnormal electrical condition (i.e. “Short”). This fuse has a higher trigger threshold than the
Replaceable Current Fuse and serves as a fail-safe for the Replaceable Current Fuse to ensure that
an abnormal electrical condition does not lead to an unsafe operating condition.
Replaceable Current Fuse*
This field replaceable part is the primary protection against abnormal electrical conditions. This fuse has a
lower trigger threshold than the Internal Current Fuse and is designed to blow first in the event of a short
and helps reduce whole transformer replacement due to field induced shorts (“sparking wires”), as well
as, other abnormal electrical conditions. In addition, this fuse is fast acting which helps protect against
abnormal electrical conditions that can lead to an unsafe operating condition.
*ONLY USE SR SMITH REPLACEMENT FUSES:
pLX-PL60 (Part Number: 36-15017-00) /
pLX-PL100 (Part Number: 36-15018-00)

1. Circular hole saw for installation of 3/4" and or 1" non-metallic conduit depending on
installation requirements.
Do not use spade bits for opening the conduit knockouts.
2. Application appropriate and approved ‘rain-tight’ or ‘wet location’ conduit hubs.
3. Additional duct seal may be required for three or more conduit installations.
* Note:
Every installation will have at least two conduits - one for input power and one for
output power. Most installations will likely have several output power conduits.
4. Slotted screwdriver, size #2
5. Phillips screwdriver, size #2
6. Drill
7. #10 Screws appropriate for installing the product onto a wall
(installer supplied)
* Note:
It is recommend to hand tighten all screw terminals and screw fasteners inside the
enclosure and front cover until snug and secure. Be sure not to overtighten as permanent
damage may occur.
