About this task

DANGER

ELECTROCUTION HAZARD!

HIGH VOLTAGE PRESENT.

USE PROPER LOCK OUT / TAG OUT PROCEDURES BEFORE servicing and/or maintaining.

Overview

The Power, Gradient, RF Cabinet (PGR) Power Distribution Unit (PDU) and eXtreme Gradient Amplifier (XGA) reside in the PGR cabinet. The XGA is part of the eXtreme Gradient Driver (XGD) subsystem. Prior to servicing and/or maintenance work on the PGR PDU or any element of the XGD, the steps in this Lock Out / Tag Out (LOTO) procedure must be completed by a LOTO-authorized GE Field Engineer (FE). Completing all the steps in this procedure ensures a safe environment and avoids equipment damage when working on these parts.

Note: There are two types of MDPs and two types of PDUs. The LOTO steps are the same, but the physical components are slightly different.

Types of equipment and/or methods selected to dissipate or isolate stored energy

About this task

Time method for dissipation of stored energy: 5 minutes.

Type(s) of equipment and/or method(s) used to ensure disconnection(s)

Procedure

Two personal locks and tags per FE at the site working on the de-energized equipment at the time of LOTO.
Voltmeter to read voltage for verification that energy has dissipated in the PDU.

Applying LOTO

Procedure

To prepare for shutdown of equipment, notify affected personnel working in the area the LOTO is being performed.
At the Operator Workspace, shut down the host PC.
At the PGR cabinet, go to the front panel of the PGR PDU and press the POWER OFF button.

Figure 1. Shut Down PGR PDU Power and LOTO
At the front panel of the PGR PDU rotate the large main breaker counterclockwise to the green Off (O) position. See Figure 1.
At the front panel of the PGR PDU, pull out the locking mechanism on the end of the main breaker (or, on the new breaker, press on the arrow) to expose the hole where the lock and tag can be placed.

Put the LOTO lock on the PGR PDU main breaker.

Figure 2. Locking the main breaker
Locate and turn off the PGR PDU main breaker on the MDP that feeds the PGR cabinet.

Lock Out/Tag Out the PDU breaker on the MDP.

Make sure all energy has been dissipated. Use a voltmeter to measure the line-to-line voltage between each INPUT phase voltage test point on the PDU.

Note: The test points are 100:1 ratio (480 VAC = 4.80 VAC, 208 VAC = 2.08 VAC). Therefore, a low voltage reading still indicates the presence of high voltage. Your voltage reading for each of the three phases must be 0 VAC before proceeding.

Input Voltage Range: 380 - 480 VAC = 3.8 - 4.8 VAC

Output Voltage Range: 208 VAC = 2.08 VAC
