Shipping and Handling
Packing
The S&C Scada-Mate SD switch shipment will include the following items:
• A three-pole group-operated integer style Scada-Mate SD switch, complete with an
interphase drive and stored-energy operating mechanism (or hookstick-operating
mechanism), factory-assembled on a single base
• Optional features shipped unassembled, such as wildlife protection components,
shielded control cable, and surge arrester brackets
A drawing of the switch and wiring diagrams are located in a water-resistant
envelope shipped with the switch. Study these drawings carefully and check the parts
list to verify all parts were shipped.
When sensors are furnished with the switch, a yellow card containing magnitude
ratios and phase-angle measurements for S&C Current Sensor(s) or S&C Current/Voltage
Sensors is included in the water-resistant envelope. These values must be programmed
into the remote terminal unit (RTU) installed with the switch, if applicable, to apply
correction for the unit-to-unit variations in the sensors. The S&C Sensor information is
also stamped onto a plate mounted on the side of the sensor terminal pad. Refer to the
instruction sheet provided with the control unit for further information.
