Annual Inspection

ATTENTION:

Ensure annual inspections are performed on the

unit. Failure to perform inspections may result in poor equipment

performance, possible damage and/or injury to personnel.

Physical Inspection

On an annual basis, harmonic filter units should be physically inspected for

any signs of damage, component breakdown, misadjustment, stress (electrical,

mechanical or thermal) or foreign material. Specifically, check the following:

ATTENTION:

Ensure main power has been disconnected and

locked out before starting the inspection. Verify with a hot stick

or meter that all circuits are voltage-free. Failure to do so may

result in electric shock causing severe burns, injury or death.

Bolts

Check tightness of all bolted power connections with a torque wrench. Set the

wrench to the nominal torque as specified on page 5-1 and apply the set torque

to the connection. Do not tighten beyond the set torque. For inspecting

connections to capacitor terminals, a reduced torque of 10 ft-lb (13.5 N-m)

must be used. Visually inspect all component mounting bolts and tighten any

which are obviously loose.

Structure

Check the cabinet and internal structure for any damage (dents, holes, etc.)

which could reduce electrical clearances or allow direct access to live parts

from outside the cabinet. Repair the damage or order replacement parts as

required.

Cable

Check for cut or worn insulation or damaged lugs due to electromechanical

stress or improper routing (cables will move when subjected to high current).

Replace any damaged cables and re-position any cables that may have moved

from their proper position. Make sure cables do not contact any sharp edges.
