Introduction
Motorpact is the name of the new line of 3 phase 50/60 Hz medium voltage motor controller released by Smyrna, TN in 2002 Motorpact Brands
IEC NEMA
Medium voltage motor controllers are normally used to start (switch) induction motors (Squirrel Cage) 225 kW and up because they do so at lower cost than low voltage motor controllers. P=E*I, when E is large, I is smaller. Therefore, cables can be smaller and less expensive. I2R losses are also less, so operating costs are less. In some cases the cost of MV to LV transformers can be eliminated.

Initial Start-up
Preparation
Prior to Start
Obtain Protective and overload relay settings from the customer. If Sepam or other electronic relay is supplied, obtain a laptop computer and software (Sepam or other) for loading and testing relay settings. Obtain and study all drawings (FVNR, RVAT, RVSS) associated with the motor controllers being installed. Obtain and study all instruction bulletins, leaflets for motor controllers, meters, relays and other components being installed.
At Start-up
Inspect equipment for shipping and/or handling damage. Report any damage.
Verify that the controller nameplate information matches motor nameplate data concerning nominal voltage, FLA, HP, etc., cubicle by cubicle. Verify correctly rated CTs, LPCTs, CPTs, and VTs are installed per drawings. 7 4
Initial Start-up
Low Voltage Circuits
With high voltage source disconnected and earthed and all LV sources disconnected, proceed cubicle by cubicle with the following:
Verify that all low voltage connections are tight and insulation is clean. Hi-pot low voltage wiring at 1200 VAC for 1 second to verify insulation is good. Connect test power through test plug. Do not energize high voltage circuit. If RVSS is supplied, install and verify that Soft Start controller settings are correct per customers specifications. Note: Special training is required to set Soft Start controllers. Test that the START and STOP pushbuttons close and open the contactors. If RVAT is supplied, verify closing and opening sequences of relays and contactors are correct.
Placing a jumper across the CTR contact, pressing the start button should cause the relays and contactors to pick up in this sequence: ISR, 1CR, SR, 42S, MR, 42M. This simulates the motor starting on reduced voltage. Removing the CTR jumper causes the SR relay to drop out, 42S to drop out, ISR to drop out, 42S NC contact to close and pick up RR, 42R. This simulates the motor running on full voltage with main contactor 42M and run contactor 42R main contacts closed in series with the motor. Start relay SR and start contactor 42S should be open.
Pressing the stop button should drop out all relays and contactors.

With contactor open and out of cell; hi-pot across vacuum interrupters at 10 kV AC for 1 minute to verify vacuum is good. If vacuum is lost, bottle will flash over internally and it will be easy to open contact by pressing on insulating flange. With contactor closed; hi-pot contactor at 10 kV AC for 1 minute phase to phase and phase to earth to verify insulation is good. Test all the contactors. Hi-pot main busbar at 2X rated voltage for 1 minute line to line and line to earth per instructions given under preventive maintenance to verify insulation is good. Disconnect VTs, CPTs and LAs during test. Close disconnectors during this test. Close all doors and panels during this test. Megger motor leads with 5 kV megger and verify motor circuit insulation is good. Disconnect test control power cord from controls. Reinstall contactors, control fuses, VT and CPT fuses. Energize the main busbar from actual source and verify voltage magnitude and phase sequence are correct. Measure phase sequence with phase meter on VT secondaries. 7 8

Parts Replacement - Replacing and Adjusting Vacuum Interrupter
Replacing an interrupter assumes the interrupter has been determined to be defective by failing a 10 kV AC Hi-pot test or other means. Refer to Contactor Instruction Bulletin 46032-700-02 for instruction on replacement and/or adjustment to the Vacuum Interrupter. The main contact gap for new interrupters is set by turning the insulating flange until a gap of 41.5 mm is obtained. Equally important is to reset the gap dimension on interrupters not replaced. This is necessary to make the contacts close simultaneously on all three phases.

Earthing Switch Adjustment
3. With the earthing switch Operator Leadscrew in the lowered position, thread the Coupler on to the earthing switch Operator Leadscrew @ 3 - 4 full turns. 4. Turn (crank) the earthing switch Operator clockwise to move the earthing switch to the open Loaded position. After 7 - 8 turns, visually check the position of the top (head) of the earthing switch Operator Leadscrew - it should be near its upper limit of travel. Continue turning the Operator SLOWLY until resistance is evident. Visually observe the position of each of the following: a. Top (head) of the Operator Leadscrew (Figure 3). b. Position of the earthing switch Pivot Link to the earthing switch Rod Keeper (Figure 4). THE PROPER ADJUSTMENT FOR THE OPEN LOADED POSITION IS ACHIEVED WHEN THE TOP (HEAD) OF THE LEADSCREW TOPS OUT AT MAXIMUM TRAVEL IN THE EARTHING SWITCH OPERATOR HOUSING (FIGURE 3) AT THE SAME TIME THE EARTHING SWITCH PIVOT LINK TOPS OUT (OR STOPS) AGAINST THE EARTHING SWITCH ROD KEEPER (FIGURE 4). If instead, the pivot link tops out against the rod keeper before the Leadscrew tops out, causing the rod keeper to bend or flex, then the earthing switch Coupler must be backed off (counter clockwise) from the Leadscrew to achieve the proper setting.

The relationship of the pivot link to the operator leadscrew is controlled by the turning of the coupler. A 13mm crowfoot wrench with a socket extension can be used to access and adjust the coupler while the operator leadscrew is in the top (maximum) position. If such a tool is not available, then the operator leadscrew can be lowered until the coupler is accessible with a 13mm open end wrench and incremental adjustments made until proper setting is achieved.

Earthing Switch Adjustment
5. When the proper earthing switch open Loaded adjustment is achieved, turn the earthing switch Operator counterclockwise to move the earthing switch to the closed (earthed position. After 7 - 8 turns, start visually observing the movement of the pivot link. The pivot link should not move until the slot link has traveled to the opposite end of the slot and has bottomed out against the screw/ bushing on the rod keeper (Figure 5). Continue to Slowly turn the earthing switch Operator until the earthing switch assembly closes quickly (fires) to the earthed position (Figure 6) and the earthing switch door interlock retracts to allow opening of the Medium Voltage door. There should be no evidence of binding or resistance during closure/earthing of the earthing switch assembly. 6. When all adjustment are complete and proper earthing switch function is achieved, the jam nut must be tightened against the coupler with a 13mm open end wrench.
