How to Install the COKP10A68 Current Sensing Relay
This guide provides step-by-step instructions for installing and wiring the COKP10A68 Current Sensing Relay in a suitable enclosure.
Estimated time: 45m
Tools needed:
Screwdriver, Wire strippers, Multimeter
Supplies needed:
Mounting screws, 8 pin octal socket (e.g., Macromatic 70169-D), Terminal connectors
- Mount the octal socket
Install the appropriate 8 pin octal socket (such as the Macromatic 70169-D) in a suitable enclosure, ensuring it is securely fastened.
- Connect wiring to the socket
Using #12-22 solid or stranded copper or copper-clad aluminum conductors, connect the wiring to the socket. Match the terminal numbers on the socket to those shown on the wiring diagram, and apply a terminal tightening torque of 12 in-lbs.
- Verify connections and power
Before powering the system, double-check all connections against the wiring diagram to ensure correctness. Remove all power supplying the equipment before connecting or disconnecting any wiring.
- Adjust settings
Set the pick-up current and drop-out settings according to your requirements. Ensure that the relay is configured to energize when the monitored AC current exceeds the pick-up setting.
- Test the relay operation
After installation and configuration, restore power and test the relay operation to ensure it functions as expected. If issues arise, verify all connections and settings.
