About this task

Overview

The PGR cabinet contains the Power Distribution Unit (PDU) and eXtreme Gradient Amplifier (XGA). 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.

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.
Topic ID: id_SL1770158-910100

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

Procedure

  1. One personal lock and tag per FE at the site working on the de-energized equipment at the time of LOTO.
  2. Voltmeter to read voltage for verification that energy has dissipated in the PDU.

Applying LOTO

Procedure

  1. To prepare for shutdown of equipment, notify affected personnel working in the area the LOTO is being performed.
  2. At the Operator Workspace, shut down the host PC.
  3. 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.

    Figure 1. PDU breaker on new style MDP
  4. 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.

    The PDU main breaker must be in the On position to read accurate voltage on the test points.

    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
