Physical Checks (No Medium
Voltage or Control Power)

Power Connection Inspection

Inspect PowerFlex 6000 drive, input/output/bypass sections, and all
associated drive components for loose power cable connections and
ground cable connections: torque them based on the required torque
specifications.

Inspect the bus bars and check for any signs of overheating / discoloration
and tighten the bus connections to the required torque specifications.

Clean all cables and bus bars that exhibit dust build-up.

The torques of incoming / outgoing cable screws of the power unit shall be
check if they are in the specified range.

Use torque sealer on all connections. Carry out the integrity checks on the
signal ground and safety grounds.

Physical Inspection

Check for any visual/physical evidence of damage or degradation of
components in the low voltage compartments.

This includes Relays, Contactors, Timers, Terminal connectors, Circuit
breakers, Ribbon cables, Control Wires, UPS, AC/DC Power Supplies
etc.; Causes could be corrosion, excessive temperature, or
contamination.

Check for any visual/physical evidence of damage or degradation of
components in the medium voltage compartments (cables, contactors,
circuit breakers, isolation disconnecting blades, power units, etc.).

This includes main cooling fan, power devices, heat sinks, circuit
boards, insulators, cables, capacitors, current transformers, potential
transformers, fuses, wiring, etc.; Causes could be corrosion, excessive
temperature, or contamination.

Clean all contaminated components using a vacuum cleaner (DO NOT
use a blower), and wipe clean components where appropriate.

Carry out the physical inspection and verification for the proper operation
of the contactor/isolator interlocks, and door interlocks.

Carry out the physical inspection and verification for the proper operation
of the key interlocks.

Carry out the cleaning of the fans and ensure that the ventilation passages
are not blocked and the impellers are freely rotating without any
obstruction.

Carry out the insulation megger test on the transformer, motor, and
associated cabling.

Check all bolts for fastening and adjust them as necessary.
