Operation

Chapter 5

Normal Mode

The NORMAL mode for the MegaDySC is Input Breaker (CBI) and Output
Breaker (CBO) closed. The bypass breaker (CBB) must be open or the
MegaDySC will not be able to correct voltage sags. There is a red indicator light
on the bypass enclosure that is lighted when the bypass is closed. The green “OK”
status box should be shown on the touchscreen display. The green “OK” box
indicates that the voltage at the output of the MegaDySC is within the +10%, -
13% normal window. Refer to

Table 1

for operational conditions and indications.

Bypass Mode

The BYPASS mode for the MegaDySC is for Input Breaker (CBI) and Output
Breaker (CBO) to be open. The bypass breaker (CBB) must be closed to provide
power to the load while the MegaDySC is being serviced.
Refer to

Automatic Bypass Switchboard Operation on page 26

or the placard on

the bypass switchboard for instructions on transferring the system into and out of
bypass mode.

Test Mode

The TEST mode for the MegaDySC is for Input Breaker (CBI) to be closed and
Output Breaker (CBO) to be open. The bypass breaker (CBB) must be closed to
provide power to the load while the MegaDySC is being tested off-line.

Fault Protection

Fault protection is provided by a variety of protection devices including
electronic, circuit breakers and fuses.

CBI and CBO are set to protect the MegaDySC conductors. If an upstream
circuit breaker is present, CBB is typically coordinated to allow the upstream
breaker to be the primary protection for the branch circuit.

The MegaDySC section contains semiconductor fuses rated at 1600 A. These
fuses provide short circuit protection for the MegaDySC modules. In the event
of a short circuit, this fuse will clear and trigger an automatic transfer to
mechanical bypass mode.

In addition, each module has an electronic current limit function that will

WARNING: Servicing must only be performed by factory authorized and
qualified personnel.
