The recloser was tested in a three-phase clrcult as shown in Figure 1 2. In accordance with 6271-200, Annex A the appled test voltage was less than the rated voltage of the apparatus due to test station limitations. ‘The test supply was adjusted to a symmetrical three-phase current of 12.5 KA rms for 0.2 s, 31.3 KA peak at the test voltage of 6.7 kV. The current remained practically sinusoidal and was not extinguished prematurely forthe test. 3. The arc was initiated in the recloser by removing Sold insulation from Sand T phases and fuse wire ited by the client as shown on Photographs No 24835 / 2362 and 2363. 4. In accordance with Clause A.5.2 the arc was initated between two adjacent phases with a theoretical test current 10.9 KA ms, 27.2 KA poak (87% of the specified internal arc withstand current). Consequently in accordance with Clause A.4.3.2 the minimum peak current that is acceptable forthe test Is 24.5 KA peak (80% of this reduced value). '5. The motal-enclosed recioser was mounted on a steel pole, The control module was also fitted to the steel pole. ‘The frame of the recloser was earthed forthe tet. 7. For the testa pressure transducer was installed in the recloser. The pressure {ransducer bushing was installed by the Client. ‘The pressure measurement taken during the test is outside the Laboratory's NATA accreditation. The result is included for information only 8 The test arrangement was generally in accordance with Annex A of 6271-200. The indicator area was 3 m x 3m, centred about the pole and placed 3.7 m below the recloser ‘The indicators were black cotton fabric approximately 40 g/m? as recommended in 6227-200, Annex A for Accessibilty Type C and mounted on a steel frame. Note:The indicators were not 2 m from ground. The pole was too short for the recloser to be atthe minimum distance of 37 m above the indicators with the Indicators 2m above the ground 8. The terminals ofthe recloser are marked A, B, C,R, S and. The phases at the testing station are referred to as R, W and B. Forthe Internal Arcing Tost, R was ‘connected to R, W connected to S and B connected to T. The observations are made with respect to the recloser.
