F35 MULTIPLE FEEDER PROTECTION SYSTEM – INSTRUCTION MANUAL 1-1
F35 Multiple Feeder Protection System
Chapter 1: Introduction
Introduction
This chapter outlines safety and technical support information.
1.1 Safety symbols and definitions
Before attempting to install or use the device, review all safety indicators in this document to help prevent injury,
equipment damage, or downtime.
The following safety and equipment symbols are used in this document.
1.1.1 General cautions and warnings
The following general safety precautions and warnings apply.
Follow the requirements of this manual, including adequate wiring size and type, terminal torque settings, voltage,
current magnitudes applied, and adequate isolation/clearance in external wiring from high to low voltage circuits.
Use the device only for its intended purpose and application.
Ensure that all ground paths are uncompromised for safety purposes during device operation and service.
Ensure that the control power applied to the device, the AC current, and voltage input match the ratings specified on
the relay nameplate. Do not apply current or voltage in excess of the specified limits.
DANGER
Indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, will result in death or serious injury.
WARNING
Indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury.
CAUTION
Indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in minor or moderate injury.
NOTICE
Indicates practices not related to personal injury.
DANGER
Ensure that all connections to the product are correct so as to avoid accidental risk of shock
and/or fire, for example such as can arise from high voltage connected to low voltage terminals.

1-2 F35 MULTIPLE FEEDER PROTECTION SYSTEM – INSTRUCTION MANUAL
FOR FURTHER ASSISTANCE CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION
1
Only qualified personnel are to operate the device. Such personnel must be thoroughly familiar with all safety
cautions and warnings in this manual and with applicable country, regional, utility, and plant safety regulations.
Hazardous voltages can exist in the power supply and at the device connection to current transformers, voltage
transformers, control, and test circuit terminals. Make sure all sources of such voltages are isolated prior to
attempting work on the device.
Hazardous voltages can exist when opening the secondary circuits of live current transformers. Make sure that
current transformer secondary circuits are shorted out before making or removing any connection to the current
transformer (CT) input terminals of the device.
For tests with secondary test equipment, ensure that no other sources of voltages or currents are connected to such
equipment and that trip and close commands to the circuit breakers or other switching apparatus are isolated,
unless this is required by the test procedure and is specified by appropriate utility/plant procedure.
When the device is used to control primary equipment, such as circuit breakers, isolators, and other switching
apparatus, all control circuits from the device to the primary equipment must be isolated while personnel are
working on or around this primary equipment to prevent any inadvertent command from this device.
Use an external disconnect to isolate the mains voltage supply.
