Mounting the Control
Mount the Form 5 recloser control in a convenient, acces-
sible location. Mounting dimensions are provided in Fig-
ure 28.
• For pole-mounted installation, a hole and keyway in
the control mounting bracket accommodates a 5/8”
bolt.
• For substation installation, brackets are available as
an accessory for mounting the control to a substation
frame.
Limits on control cable length are determined by the max-
imum distance between the control and recloser:
• Up to 410 m (125* ft) for solenoid-operated reclosers
(VWE, VWVE27, VWVE38X, WE, WVE27, WVE38X,
and NOVA).
• Up to 10,7 m (35* ft) for motor-operated reclosers
(VSA12, VSA12B, VSA16, VSA20, VSA20A, VSO12,
VSO16).
Up to 41 m (135* ft) for NOVA DC.
* These lengths are based on standard control cables.
Consult your Cooper Power Systems representative if
longer cable lengths are required.
