Maintenance

Periodic Inspection

DANGER: Risk of electrical shock, fire or personal injury. Always de-energize the transformer before inspection.

For clean, dry locations, annual inspections should sufce. When the air is contaminated with dust or chemical fumes, monthly
inspections may be required. After the rst few inspections, set up a schedule based on the existing conditions. During the inspections,
follow the steps listed below.

• De-energize the transformer.

• Remove the enclosure cover(s).

• Check for loose connections, rust, corrosion, and inspect the overall condition of the transformer.

• Look for signs of overheating or voltage creepage over insulation surfaces (indicated by tracking or carbonization).

Cleaning

DANGER: Risk of electrical shock, fire or personal injury. Always de-energize the transformer before cleaning.

• With a vacuum cleaner, blower, or low-pressure compressed air, clean any accumulated dirt found on the unit.
