Determine the mounting location of the TPS3 in the distribution
equipment. If it is to be mounted in the top of the distribution equipment
or relocated after installation, internal phase labeling connections
must be changed to ensure proper diagnostic board indication.
TPS3 01 Installation Instructions for: 400/600 amp S1/S2 and All SE Panels
If model number includes W option suffix, additional instructions follow
Note that this installation is very similar to TPS3 used in S3 Panels
except that the neutral connector is wired rather than pigtailed
and the neutral connector is at line end of the panel.
The following instructions are for the installation of Siemens TPS3
01 and L1 SPD modules in Siemens 400/600 amp S1/S2 and all SE
Panels. All hardware is supplied for complete installation of the TPS3
module.
Figure 4: 400/600 AMP S1/S2 AND ALL SE PANELS - TPS3 01 Unit
with the NK Accessory Kit
These modifications should be made prior to installation. If the TPS3
module is field installed in the bottom, or if it is mounted in a factory
assembled panelboard, the internal phase label connections are
correct as shipped.
Internal Phase Labeling Connections
A single 14 wire ribbon cable is attached to the display pcb.
When the ABC phase sequence changes to CBA, the single connector is
removed from the normal “ABC” jack and installed in the jack labeled
“CBA”
Lock off all power supplying this equipment before working on it.
Remove the trim and dead front.
Install the mounting bracket (Item 5) to the base rail as shown
in Figure 3 using two (2) of the #10 thread forming screws
(item 3).
Position the TPS3 unit on the panel base rail so that the phase tabs
are on top of the interior bus and the four mounting holes line up
with the two holes in the base rail and the two holes in the mounting
bracket.
Attach the TPS3 unit (item 1) to the base rail using four (4) of the #10
slotted hex washer head thread forming screws (item 3) provided as
shown in Figure 3.
Fasten unit to the main bus using the phase connectors (item 6). The
connectors will be attached to the unit with three (3) 1/4" hex head
SEMS assemblies (item 2) provided. Then they will be connected to
the interior with three (3) 1/4" carriage bolts and three (3) belleville
washer nuts (items 7 & 8). Do not tighten at this time.
Fasten TPS3 neutral to panel neutral at the neutral connection point
(item 4).
Torque all connections to the values as specified on the installation and
maintenance instruction label affixed to the rear of the dead front.
Replace deadfront and trim.
