1. Local Quick Operation Procedure (On-site Panel)

Step 1: Open the Control Cabinet
Use the standard cabinet key to unlock the controller and open the door.

Step 2: Power Check and System Status

  • Ensure the controller is powered (battery level is sufficient or external AC/DC is connected).

  • Observe the LED indicators or HMI screen:

    • Breaker status (Open/Closed)

    • Fault or Lockout indicators

    • Communication and battery indicators

Step 3: Manually Open or Close the Recloser

  • To open (trip) the circuit: press the &ldquo;OFF&rdquo; button.

  • Wait for the LED or screen to confirm the recloser is open.

  • After clearing the fault, press the &ldquo;ON&rdquo; button to reclose.

Step 4: Switch Operation Mode

  • Use the mode selector switch or HMI setting to choose &ldquo;Manual&rdquo; or &ldquo;Auto&rdquo; mode.

  • In &ldquo;Auto&rdquo; mode, the recloser will automatically execute its reclosing logic after faults.

Step 5: Reset After Lockout (if applicable)

  • If a fault lockout has occurred, press the &ldquo;RESET&rdquo; button.

  • Confirm that lockout indicators are cleared before re-energizing.

2. Remote Quick Operation Procedure (Via SCADA/RTU)

Step 1: Confirm Connection
Ensure the recloser is communicating via SCADA using GPRS, 4G, or fiber. The remote interface (SCADA/DMS) must show online status.

Step 2: Send Remote Control Commands

  • Use the SCADA interface to issue &ldquo;Open&rdquo; or &ldquo;Close&rdquo; command.

  • Confirm that the recloser changes status and feedback is updated.

Step 3: Monitor Live Data

  • Observe real-time values such as current, voltage, fault alarms, and breaker position from the SCADA interface.

Step 4: Remote Reset (if available)

  • If lockout occurs and remote reset is enabled, send the &ldquo;Reset&rdquo; command.

  • Otherwise, reset must be performed locally.

3. Summary of Key Actions

  • To Open (Trip): Press &ldquo;OFF&rdquo; on HMI or send &ldquo;Open&rdquo; via SCADA

  • To Close (Reclose): Press &ldquo;ON&rdquo; on HMI or send &ldquo;Close&rdquo; via SCADA

  • To Switch Mode: Set the selector to &ldquo;Auto&rdquo; for automatic reclose, &ldquo;Manual&rdquo; for local control

  • To Reset Fault Lockout: Press &ldquo;RESET&rdquo; on HMI after fault clearance

  • To Monitor Status: Check HMI screen or SCADA dashboard for live breaker status and fault indicators

4. Important Notes

  • Always confirm the system is free from faults before reclosing.

  • In Auto mode, the recloser may automatically reclose based on configured time-delay sequences.

  • Ensure safety protocols and PPE are followed at all times.

  • Protection settings and reclosing sequences should be pre-configured using authorized software tools.
