Clipsal - Max 4 Mini Neutral link

Suppose the following happens when connecting the DCCABKIT6 cable between Laptop and DALIcontrol Duo Mode 3 Power Supply (DCDALCIP250-2).

In Device Manager find something like

The cable has likely been used with some other product that has recognised the FDTI chip and installed this LibUSB driver which is not recognised by the Simple Wizard which sees a different device ID

BEFORE GOING FURTHER REALISE THAT ONCE COMPLETE THE OTHER DEVICE WILL NO LONGER FIND ITS REQUIRED DRIVER.

Right click on this entry in the Device Manager and select Properties from the menu

And proceed to the Driver tab

 

…and select <Update Driver>

 

… and Select <Browse my computer for Drivers>

 

Select <Let me pick from a list of available drivers on my computer>

With this next Dialog un-tick the Show compatible hardware

 

In this case you should see Manufacturer FTDI and Select from the Model USB Serial Port which should start the install finishing with…

 

From here you should now be able to connect.

It is important to note that when connecting to the DALIcontrol Duo Mode 3 Power Supply (DCDALCIP250-2) with the DCCABKIT6 programming cable and running DCBMWizard or SimpleWizard that the power supply be in mode 1. To achieve this on the DCDALCIP250-2 press and hold the <ON A> button and momentarily press the <TEST A> button. The Line A indicator will single pulse 5x to indicate the mode.

 

If there is a compatible driver installed you can try tick Show Compatible hardware, then try selecting one of the drivers below.

If there are no drivers to be found on the Computer in question it is then possible to download the software by going to the following on  your web browser https://support.arduino.cc/hc/en-us/articles/4411305694610-Install-or-update-FTDI-drivers and follow the instructions laid out.

Issue:
Looking for a transformer or power supply to convert DC to AC

Product Line:
Phaseo ABL8 Power Supply

Environment:
Phaseo Power Supply

Cause:
Will backfeeding an ABL8 DC power supply allow DC voltage to convert to AC?

Resolution:
No, these are not intended to be used in this manner.  A DC rectifier will need to be used

Issue:
Product Design Features

Product Line:
Circuit Breaker Enclosures

Resolution:
NOTE: This information will generally apply to ALL the Molded Case Circuit Breaker Enclosures(The F-frame, B-Frame, H-frame, the J-frame, the L-frame, the M-frame and P-Frame). But for the video a J250S was used.



The wiring diagram on the circuit breaker enclosures will be located on, one of the inside sidewalls of the enclosure. All the necessary information for the enclosure will be on the wiring diagram and will contain the following;
1) Catalog and series number of the enclosure
2) What type of Circuit breakers that can be used
3) Any accessory that can be used in the enclosure, like the solid neutral and equipment ground kit
4) The UL listed catalog number Prefixes for the breakers that can be used in the enclosure
5) Maximum wire sizes for the enclosure(NOTE: Sometimes the breaker can accept larger wire, BUT the enclosure wire bending space will be limited to what the wiring diagram shows)
6) The Wiring schematics
7) The Short Circuit Current Rating information for each breaker at each voltage level
8) The Date code. The date code will be an ink stamp, generally located on the inside back wall of the enclosure. The Date Code will be a 5 or 6 digit code and will read as follows; first two digits = year, the 2nd two digits = week of the year, the 5th digit = the day of the week and the last digit(if used) = the shift. For example, 183241 is year - 2018, week of year -32, day of week - 4 and shift - 1. (Aug. 9th, 2018)

The charging station has a conditional input E6 which can be configured as “deferred start” or as “power limitation”, or as “to be ignored” (factory setting). The conditional input can be connected to any device capable of closing a contact. It is active when connected to the mains phase. It remains inactive when not connected.

Deferred start of charging
The conditional input can be connected, for example, to a clock to schedule charging hours or to an on-peak / off-peak contactor to charge only during off-peak hours. Start is deferred as long as the input is active.


Charging power limitation
The conditional input can be connected to a load shedder for example. As long as the input is active the charging station reduces the maximum charging current setpoint value given to the vehicle:
• From 16 A to 10 A for 3 and 11 kW charging stations
• From 32 A to 16 A for 7 and 22 kW charging stations

AX rating is for fluorescent and inductive loads

It means the relay module can switch a load of up to 16A resistive or a 6A fluorescent or Inductive  load.

The following list the more common voltage suffix codes for these product lines.  For a more comprehensive list and to determine compatibility with a given product, refer to the catalog below.

Note 1: LC1D150 contactors are only available with *7 coil codes.
Note 2: Coil Code ending number represents frequency rating as follows:
5 = 50 Hertz
6 = 60 Hertz
7 = 50/60 Hertz

Issue:
Identifying power terminal lug data for the D2 style contactors

Product Line:
IEC Contactors and Starters

Environment:
Tesys D line contactors

Cause:
Power terminal lug data required

Resolution:
For contactors with screw clamp terminals:
stranded cable w/o cable end : One #10-3 AWG or Two #10-4 AWG per terminal.
stranded cable w/cable end: One #10-4 AWG or Two #12-2 AWG per terminal.
solid cable: One #10-3 AWG or Two #10-6 AWG per terminal.

No, these are not saturn PBL Blue LED intermediate switch available, but you can create one using a 2 way standard 60PBL 2 way push switches with LED's switch using a PDL600RM relay, as per the attached wiring diagram.
