Instruction Manual
If the carrier system is not connected
to the HF terminal during operation,
the carrier grounding switch must
remain at the "Closed" position. See
item 5.9.

5.5. Terminal marking

The marking of the primary and

project. Check the markings on the
set of approved drawings.
The wiring diagram for the secondary
terminals are those shown on the
drawings.

These sparkers may be of two types:
Spark gap: Air insulation with
preset factory setting. Refer to
the CVT secondary terminal box
drawing for more details.
This setting cannot be modified
on-site.

Encapsulated: Gas insulation
with pre-set operating voltage.
Refer to the CVT secondary
terminal box drawing for more
details on which type is used.
