Installing the Capacitor Control

Bracket Mounting

Attach the control to the pole with either lag bolts for a wood pole, or metal straps for 
a concrete or metal pole. See Figures 14 and 15 on page 15. Then, connect the cable as 
described below.

Follow these steps to attach the control to a wood pole:

STEP 1. 

Use two 1/2-inch through-bolts or lag bolts and flat washers if necessary. Drill a 
hole for the top bolt or start the top lag screw.

STEP 2. 

Support the control and install the top bolt to hold the control on the pole, or  
hang the control on the top lag screw.

STEP 3. 

Vertically align the control on the pole and drill the bottom hole. Install the  
bottom bolt or lag screw.

STEP 4. 

Tighten the two bolts or lag screws.

STEP 5. 

Confirm that the cable from the switch and power source is wired correctly for  
the connector on your control.

The wiring options for the connector are shown in Figures 16 through 18 on 

page 16. The configuration used in this control is also shown on a label inside the 
enclosure. The bracket-mounted control has additional sensor cable connector(s) 
mounted on the bottom of the enclosure. See Figure 11 on page 12.

STEP 6. 

Connect the ground lug on the bottom of the control.

Use the ground lug on the bottom of the control enclosure to ground the enclo-
sure. See Figures 11 and 12 on page 12. The ground lug will accommodate up to 
#2 copper or aluminum, solid or stranded wire.

   WARNING

The control must be properly grounded . You must read and understand all 

 

applicable grounding codes and requirements for your service area before installing 
this device . An ungrounded control may have potentially lethal voltages present .

STEP 7. 

Connect the cable from the junction box to the connector on the bottom of the 
capacitor control.

When an energized cable is connected to the control, all faceplate LED 

displays light momentarily. The LCD screen will start to scroll after a few  
seconds.

Make sure the OPERATION MODE MANUAL and SCADA CONTROL LOCAL 

LED displays are lit. If not, press the applicable CHANGE button.

   WARNING

The control must be set to 

Manual and Local mode to avoid unexpected operation of 

the capacitor bank during installation or setup operations . Note that, if the control uses 
dial-up software, it may still be operated remotely and may operate unexpectedly .

STEP 8. 

Go to the “Connecting Sensors” section on page 20.
