Footnotes
(1) Customer Supplied
(2) The 825-MCMxxx can be used with or without an external bypass contactor. If an external bypass
contactor is used then the 825-MCMxxx must be installed in order to use current based motor protection
features including the motor overload feature. Cable length is 3 meters. Only the cable provided with the
825-MCMXXX is compatible with the 150-SM2.
(3) The 825-CBCT core balance sensor mounts separately from the SMC-50 and must be placed within
3 meters of it. When connecting the 825-CBCT ground fault sensor the secondary of the CT must be
shorted until connection to the 150-SM2 module is complete.
(4) Refer to the User Manual for additional bypass configurations (e.g. emergency run off bypass) and
application considerations.
