2. WARNINGS
• PRIOR TO INSTALLATION. Ensure that the
TSG-SRF is of the correct voltage, current,
phasing, and frequency, and is of the type
recommended by the manufacturer for the
equipment and power distribution system
in use.
• DO NOT MEGGER. This unit contains
over-voltage protection components.
• TSG-SRFs contain capacitors. Disconnect
power at least 1 minute prior to removing
the escutcheon panel. Check voltage prior
to working on SRF internals.
• TSG-SRFs must be connected to a low
impedance earth (<10Ω) for correct operation.
• TSG-SRFs must be installed in accordance
with ALL relevant national electrical and
safety codes.
• The power supply to the TSG-SRF should
always be turned off (and locked) before the
escutcheon panel is removed for any purpose.
Internal circuit breakers do not fully isolate
the filter.
• Check all TSG-SRF terminals for tight
connections. (Some terminals may become
loose during transport)
• Ensure all input and output cabling, once
installed, is tightened to the correct torque
settings (see Table 3, Page 16).
• Do not disconnect upstream Earth or Neutral
connections supplying the SRF while power
is still applied, as this may damage the SRF
or load.
• No combustible items should be stored
within the SRF during operation.
• Do not leave this manual behind the
escutcheon panel after applying power to the
SRF. Retain this manual for future reference.
• Failure to heed instructions or warnings may
result in personnel injury, equipment damage
or ineffective transient protection.
