Siemens Power Transmission & Distribution, Inc.
Communications
The MJ-X
L
provides local communications via the front-
panel data port, and supports remote communications
with the MJ-X
L
Communications Module.
Barrier Terminal Strips
Terminal contacts on the back of the MJ-X
L
Control Panel
allow for external control over certain functions such as
VRC activation and tap changing. These terminals can be
used to provide an electrical interface to a SCADA system
for remote control applications and/or other desired con-
trol functions.

in the existing enclosure by simply swinging the control to
be replaced outward on its hinges, disconnecting the
polarized disconnect switch (PDS), then removing the unit
and inserting the new unit. (See Appendix B.)
