INSTALLATION — Pad-Mounted StyleCompleting the Installation1. A resilient closed-cell gasket on the bottom
flange of the enclosure protects the finishfrom being scratched during installationand isolates it from the alkalinity of a con-crete foundation. This gasket also helps toseal the enclosure to the foundation toguard against entry of rodents, insects, orweeds, and to discourage tampering.
In the event the gasket cannot compen-sate for an uneven foundation, grout thebottom of the enclosure as necessary. Anygrout applied should be recessed enough topermit caulking. To complete the installa-tion, caulk around the bottom of theenclosure; a weatherproof temperature vul-canizing (RTV) silicon-rubber compound isrecommended. Apply a suitable compoundto fill the spaces between the cable and theconduit, and cap all empty conduits to pre-vent the entry of moisture and rodents.
2. Reinstall the front panel of the operationcompartment and the upper front panel ofthe termination compartment. (Note thatthese panels are not interchangeable.)Lower the hinged roofs and secure themwith the pentahead bolts. Then insert apadlock into each hasp.

1. Remove the shipping covers from the bush-ings and bushing wells.
Ç DANGERBefore energizing the switchgear, replacethe shipping caps on all bushings and bush-ing wells with elbows or insulated protec-tive covers or plugs. Failure to replace
the shipping caps with elbows or insu-
lated protective covers or plugs can re-
sult in a flashover and serious personal
injury or death.
Ç CAUTIONALWAYS follow proper cable installationpractices. When installing cable to beattached to the switchgear, provide a strain-relief segment to minimize the load on thebushings. Cables must be allowed to ex-pand and flex without putting a significantload on the bushings. For a pit, either loopthe cable in the pit or bring it into the pithorizontally and up to the gear at a 90ºangle. Failure to follow these precau-
tions can result in damage to the bush-
ings and bushing wells and subsequent
leakage of the SF6 insulating gas.

DIELECTRIC TESTING
Ç WARNINGWhen performing electrical withstand tests on Vista switchgear, al-ways observe the following precautions. Failure to observe
these precautions can result in a flashover, injury, and equip-
ment damage.
1. Completely de-energize the switchgear and disconnect it fromall power sources.
2. Terminate bushings with an insulated cap or other appropriatecable termination capable of withstanding the test voltage.
3. Verify that the SF6 pressure gauge is in the green zone.

1 The power-frequency withstand test voltages listed in the table areapproximately 80% of the design values for new equipment.2 The dc withstand test voltages listed in the table are approximately80% of the design values for new equipment.3 Dc withstand test voltages are given for reference only for those usersperforming dc withstand tests. The presence of these values does not
imply a dc withstand rating or performance requirements for the switch-gear. A dc withstand design test is specified for new equipment becausethe switchgear may be subjected to dc test voltage when connected to thecable. The dc withstand test values listed in the table are approximatelyequal to the ac peak test voltage.
Routine Switchgear Testing
For the convenience of users who normallyperform electrical tests on system compo-nents such as switchgear, appropriate with-stand test values for Vista switchgear aregiven in the table below. These test values aresignificantly greater than the normal operatingvoltage of the switchgear and are near theflashover voltage of the gear. They should beapplied only when the switchgear is com-pletely de-energized and disconnected fromall power sources.
Cable Testing and FaultLocatingDc testing of installed cables is performed todetermine the condition of the cables and tolocate faults. Industry standards, like IEEE400, “IEEE Guide for Making High-Direct-Volt-age Tests on Power Cable Systems in theField,” describe such testing and should bereferenced for selection of the test proce-dures. Dc testing also includes cable “thump-ing,” i.e., the sudden application of dc voltagefrom a large capacitor for the purposes offault locating, which causes transients andvoltage doubling at the end of the open cable.When the cables are attached to the switch-gear, the gear will also be subjected to the dctest voltages.
Ç WARNINGThe dc withstand capability of the switchgear may be reduced dueto aging, damage, gas leakage, or electrical or mechanical wear.Therefore, the dc test voltage must be selected such that it does notexceed the withstand limits of the switchgear. Application of dc
test voltages greater than the withstand capability of the
switchgear can result in a flashover, injury, and equipment
damage.
In addition, always verify that the SF6 pressure gauge is in thegreen zone before proceeding with any testing.
Ç DANGERDo not exceed the test voltages given in the table on page 17.Exceeding the test voltages can cause a flashover of the isolatinggap or phase-to-phase insulation of the switchgear. This can lead
to a power-frequency fault in the gear or of the dc test source
and result in severe personal injury or death.
17 681-505
Vista switchgear has been designed to allowdc testing of the cables with the other ways ofthe gear energized. The integral groundingswitch may be used to ground the cable. Aftertesting, the dc test equipment should be usedto discharge any stored charge on the cablebefore grounding with the grounding switch.The dc test voltages and dc cable thumpingvoltages should not exceed the voltages givenin the table below.

1 The dc cable thumping voltage is 50% of the dc cable test voltagebecause of voltage doubling that will occur at the open end of the cablewhich is assumed to be a unit of Vista switchgear. If the open end of the
cable is grounded, the dc cable thumping voltage applied to the cable andswitchgear can be increased to the dc cable test voltage.
Fault-Interrupter TestingWhen performing dielectrical tests on Vistaswitchgear, the vacuum fault interrupters willnot be subject to voltage across the open gapbecause the disconnect switch will isolate thevacuum interrupter from the test voltage.Since the vacuum interrupter will not be ener-gized across the open gap, there is no expo-sure to X-rays that are normally associatedwith high-voltage testing of vacuum devices.Routine testing of the vacuum fault interrupt-ers is not recommended. For those users whodesire to test the vacuum interrupters, contactthe nearest S&C Sales Office for specificinstructions.
DIELECTRIC TESTING
Ç WARNINGWhen it is necessary to test the cables connected to a unit of ener-gized switchgear, proper isolation of the power-frequency sourcefrom the dc test source must be maintained. Follow the recommen-dations by the manufacturer of the dc test equipment or fault-locat-ing equipment. The user’s operating and safety procedures shouldbe followed for grounding the cable, connecting the dc test source,isolating the dc test source (in case of flashover), ungrounding thecable, applying the dc test source, discharging the cable, andregrounding the cable.
