Preface
Overview
The SEL-734B Capacitor Bank Control is based on the SEL-734 Advanced
Metering System platform. Devices ship with an outdoor-rated enclosure and
are programmed with control strategies specific to each model option.
The SEL-734B Field Reference Guide provides a general overview of the
SEL-734B and describes the procedures for installation as a capacitor bank
control. This guide also provides troubleshooting and testing methods.
The SEL-734B Data Sheet details the model options available, the features
and control strategies associated with each option, as well as interface options
and compatible accessories.
The SEL-734B Design Template Guides describe the operation of the specific
enclosure model, detail the settings associated with the model option, and
contain logical diagrams for developers. Several design templates are
available, and each template is compatible with a specific enclosure model.
The SEL-734 Instruction Manual details all other features available in the
SEL-734 device, including metering, power quality, and communications.
Safety Information
Dangers, Warnings,
and Cautions

General Safety Marks
CAUTION
There is danger of explosion if the battery is incorrectly replaced.
Replace only with Ray-O-Vac®no. BR2335 or equivalent recommended
by manufacturer. See Owner's Manual for safety instructions. The
battery used in this device may present a fire or chemical burn hazard
if mistreated. Do not recharge, disassemble, heat above 100°C or
incinerate. Dispose of used batteries according to the manufacturer’s
instructions. Keep battery out of reach of children.
ATTENTION
Une pile remplacée incorrectement pose des risques d’explosion.
Remplacez seulement avec un Ray-O-Vac®no BR2335 ou un produit
équivalent recommandé par le fabricant. Voir le guide d’utilisateur
pour les instructions de sécurité. La pile utilisée dans cet appareil peut
présenter un risque d’incendie ou de brûlure chimique si vous en faites
mauvais usage. Ne pas recharger, démonter, chauffer à plus de 100°C
ou incinérer. Éliminez les vieilles piles suivant les instructions du
fabricant. Gardez la pile hors de la portée des enfants.
