Instructions for the FP-6000 Protective Relay
2 Quick Start
2.1 Introduction
The purpose of a Quick Start section is to provide a minimal
overview of what it takes to operate the FP-6000. This
perspective is useful as either providing the framework for
learning the FP-6000 more thoroughly or for actually handling a
simple application. The FP-6000 is approachable at a variety of
levels. Significant results may be obtained with basic knowledge,
yet the FP-6000 is powerful enough to handle the most difficult
and involved of applications.
Use this Guide to begin performing basic metering functions
quickly, without reviewing complete instructions provided in the
User’s Manual. To more fully understand the wide array of
features offered by your FP-6000, it is strongly recommended
that operators read the entire User’s Manual. Following initial
power-up of the FP-6000, the displayed “Meter Menu” values
may not be what is anticipated for your specific system. The unit
must first be programmed with “General Setup” information
relating to your electrical system.
2.2 Initial Checks
Your FP-6000 will either come pre-installed in a panel or as a
separate FP-6000 component assembly package including an
“Outer Chassis” assembly and an “Inner Chassis” assembly
containing the major portion of the operating electronics. Follow
Section 7 “Startup” if a review of the installation is required.
2.3 Standard Mounting
The FP-6000 is shipped with the Outer Enclosure assembled with
a backing plate between the enclosure housing box and the front
latching frame. This factory assembled outer chassis allows for
panel thickness variations, minor panel distortions and has
relaxed panel cutout tolerance requirements for easy faster panel
mounting. The panel footprint outline is equivalent to the Eaton
DT3XXX and MP3XXX drawout designs. However it differs from
most Eaton IQ style panel mounts in that:
•
The panel cutout is slightly larger.
•
The enclosure is mounted from the front user side of the
panel.
•
Four mounting studs/nuts are used for panel mounting instead
of 10 mounting screws.
The standard panel cutout is shown in Figure 3.
Please refer to Section 6.1 for mounting details.
For IQ Panel Cutout Retrofit see Section 6.2.

2.4 Wiring
2.4.1 Powering the FP-6000
Power supply control power is brought in on TB 101/102.
Nominal input range is either:
•
100–120 Vac,48–125 Vdc, or
•
100–240 Vac, 100–250 Vdc
Terminal 101 is positive dc or hot on ac with 102 being the
common dc return or the ac neutral. With control power applied,
the FP-6000 may be programmed and minimal functionality may
be verified.
2.4.2 Typical Application Wiring
Wiring installation for the FP-6000 must follow a suitable Wiring
Plan Drawing and conform to applicable Federal, State and Local
codes. Refer to Figure 31 for the rear terminal designations. Direct
wires to the terminal blocks TB1 and TB2 must not be larger than
AWG No. 14 (without spade lugs) and no smaller than 18 AWG.
TB4 for the CT connections can support 10 to 14 AWG. The lug
screws of TB1, 2 and 4, are not captive and may be backed out
entirely for the purpose of securing a ring terminal. The
removable terminal plugs of TB3 can support direct connection of
14 to 20 AWG wires, however ferrules are recommended on the
wire termination to minimize shorting of frayed wires. The
following two figures, Figure 4 and Figure 5, show typical wiring
diagrams. Additional wiring diagrams are shown in Section 6.
CAUTION
THE FP-6000 MUST BE SET FOR THE PARTICULAR APPLICATION
BEFORE ENERGIZING THE ELECTRIC POWER SYSTEM.
CAUTION
WIRING PROCEDURES MUST BE PERFORMED ONLY BY QUALIFIED
PERSONNEL WHO ARE FAMILIAR WITH THE FP-6000 AND ITS
ASSOCIATED ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT. ENSURE THAT INCOMING
POWER SOURCES ARE TURNED OFF AND LOCKED OUT PRIOR TO
PERFORMING ANY ELECTRICAL WORK. FAILURE TO DO SO MAY
RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY OR EQUIPMENT DAMAGE.
