4.1: Considerations When Installing the MP200 Metering System
Installation of the MP200 metering system must be performed only
by qualified personnel who follow standard safety precautions during
all procedures. Those personnel should have appropriate training
and experience with high voltage devices. Appropriate safety gloves,
safety glasses and protective clothing is recommended.
During normal operation of the MP200 unit, dangerous voltages are present in many
parts of the unit, including: terminals and any connected CTs (current transformers)
and PTs (potential transformers), all I/O Modules (inputs and outputs) and their cir-
cuits.
All Primary and Secondary circuits can, at times, produce lethal voltages and
currents. Avoid contact with any current-carrying surfaces.
Do not use the MP200 metering system or any I/O output device for primary
protection or in an energy-limiting capacity. The MP200 metering system can
only be used as secondary protection.
Do not use the MP200 unit for applications where failure of the MP200 unit may cause
harm or death.
Do not use the MP200 unit for any application where there may be a risk of fire.
All MP200 unit terminals should be inaccessible after installation.
Do not apply more than the maximum voltage the MP200 unit or any attached device
can withstand. Refer to MP200 unit and/or device labels and to the specifications for
all devices before applying voltages. Do not HIPOT/Dielectric test any outputs, inputs
or communication terminals.
