If the controller is not upright upon receipt, notify the carrier of possible damage. Upright the units as soon as possible and immediately notify the nearest Toshiba representative. • Carefully unpack the unit and make an immediate inspection for any concealed damage which might have occurred during shipment.
Basic Installation and Operation Guide JK 400 Series Fixed Controllers Overhead Lifting When it is necessary to move the equipment between elevations, overhead hoisting may be required. Lifting angles (for multiple controller sections) are provided on top of the enclosure for this purpose. Spreaders (Fig. 2) should be used to provide the vertical lift on single controllers to prevent eye-bolt failure.
Basic Installation and Operation Guide JK 400 Series Fixed Controllers during building construction. An indoor controller that is to be stored outdoors should be securely covered for protection from weather conditions and dirt. Temporary electrical heating should be installed to prevent condensation.
Fig. 5 Typical Space Heater Service Conditions Toshiba medium voltage controllers are intended for usual service conditions as defined by NEMA. The equipment should not be exposed to corrosive or explosive fumes, dusts, vapors, dripping or standing water, abnormal vibration, shock, tilting, or other abnormal operation conditions. The temperature of the ambient air surrounding the controller should be between the limits of 0°C (32°F) and +40°C (104°F).
Basic Installation and Operation Guide JK 400 Series Fixed Controllers Mounting Each shipping section must be leveled and firmly secured to its supporting foundation. Steel shims may be used for final leveling (Fig. 6), if necessary. When three or more shipping sections are to be arranged in one continuous line-up, the center shipping section should normally be located first.

All debris and tools should be removed from each compartment as cabling is completed.
Basic Installation and Operation Guide JK 400 Series Fixed Controllers Incoming Line On the standard JK, incoming power cable connections should be made at the points shown on the wiring diagram furnished with the equipment. These connections will normally be made in a separate incoming compartment to bus lugs, an incoming load interrupter switch, or a vacuum circuit breaker.
Basic Installation and Operation Guide JK 400 Series Fixed Controllers POWER FUSE CARTRIDGES (Fig. 15a & 15b) To remove power fuse cartridge: Loosen the front two sems bolts (Fig. 15c). Lift up the front end then slowly slide out of the compartment.
Basic Installation and Operation Guide JK 400 Series Fixed Controllers PRE-ENERGIZATION CHECK General AFTER INSTALLATION, BUT BEFORE ENERGIZING THE CONTROLLER for the first time, follow the procedure below to verify that the equipment is properly installed and functional. There is a rating data label (Fig. 16) on the inside of each medium voltage compartment door.
Basic Installation and Operation Guide JK 400 Series Fixed Controllers Wiring Check Field wiring (Fig. 18) should be checked for clearance to live busses, where necessary, physically secured to withstand the effects of fault current. All grounding connections should be checked.
Basic Installation and Operation Guide JK 400 Series Fixed Controllers Device/Mechanism Checks All devices should be checked for damage (Fig. 20). All necessary repairs or replacements should be made. Do not energize damaged equipment that has WARNING not been repaired and verified.
Basic Installation and Operation Guide JK 400 Series Fixed Controllers Electrical Checks With incoming power isolated and all loads disconnected electrically, the control circuit and other mechanisms should be exercised to determine that the devices operate properly. An auxiliary source of control power will be necessary to provide power to the electrical operators.
Basic Installation and Operation Guide JK 400 Series Fixed Controllers GENERAL DESCRIPTION Toshiba JK 400 ampere medium voltage controllers are AC general-purpose NEMA Class E2 controllers designed for applications at utilization voltages ranging from 2.3 through 6.6 BLANK OR ADDITIONAL kV.
Basic Installation and Operation Guide JK 400 Series Fixed Controllers Controller Compartment A. Isolation Switch Power is switched on and off to the controller by a fix-mounted, externally-operated, three-pole, non-load break, isolation switch (Fig. 24a). When the switch is in the off position, incoming power is isolated from the controller compartment interior by an automatic shutter.
JK 400 Series Fixed Controllers B. Vacuum Contactor The Type HCV-5HA/7HA vacuum contactor (Fig. 26) used in Toshiba JK 400 ampere controllers is a compact, fix-mounted device. It is mounted to the floor of the controller compartment, beneath the isolation switch.
Basic Installation and Operation Guide JK 400 Series Fixed Controllers D. Control Power/Potential Transformers A control power transformer (Fig. 28a) is fix-mounted on the left side of the controller compartment. Power is supplied to the fused primary of the control power transformer from the load side of the main power fuses.
Basic Installation and Operation Guide JK 400 Series Fixed Controllers E. Operating Handle The external operating handle shown in Fig. 29 is used to control the operation of the isolation switch. Moving the handle upward turns the switch on, thus applying incoming power to the main current-limiting fuses.
Basic Installation and Operation Guide JK 400 Series Fixed Controllers b. Handle Interlock Two mechanical interlocks are provided to prevent operating the switch handle improperly. The first interlock prevents moving the handle from OFF to ON unless the compartment door is closed (Fig. 31).
Basic Installation and Operation Guide JK 400 Series Fixed Controllers G. Interlocks - Electrical a. Control Power Interlock (CPI) The control power interlock (CPI) is a microswitch which is directly driven by the operation of the switch handle (Fig. 33). This normally open switch is closed only when the handle is fully ON.
Basic Installation and Operation Guide JK 400 Series Fixed Controllers Low Voltage Compartment The low voltage compartment contains controller components rated 600 volts maximum, which may include such items as overload relays, pilot devices, control relays, etc. Hazardous Voltage. Turn off and lock out control circuit WARNING power before servicing.
Basic Installation and Operation Guide JK 400 Series Fixed Controllers Main Bus Compartment Main bus bars extending horizontally throughout a line-up are located in an isolated compartment located in the rear center of the enclosure (Fig. 36a & 36b). From the main bus, riser bars supply power to the controller.
