ABB Emax 2 Retrofill, Installation And Maintenance Manual

Page: 23 / 77

Store the circuit breakers in a clean, dry location in an upright position.
Make sure that the breakers are properly supported to prevent bending of the studs
or damage to any of the breaker parts. Do not remove any protective grease until the
assemblies are ready to be installed. Cover to prevent dust from settling on the
breakers.
If breakers are not to be placed in service at once, remove them from their shipping
cartons and thoroughly inspect them for damage.
If everything is in satisfactory condition, replace the breakers in their shipping
cartons for storage. If it is necessary to store the equipment for any length of time,
use the following precautions to prevent corrosion or deterioration.
Store in a clean, dry, rodent-free location with moderate temperature & provide
protective coverings to prevent dirt, water, or other foreign substances from
entering the breaker.
If dampness or condensation is encountered in the storage location, heaters
installed in the switchgear can be used to prevent moisture damage.
After prolonged storage, Level 1 maintenance is needed under two years of storage.
While Level 2 maintenance is needed over two years of storage. Refer to circuit
breaker manual in maintenance L1-L2 descriptions.
Refer to Emax2 Installation, Operation and Maintenance Instructions — Publication
#1SDHOO1000RO002 pages 99-112.
If you decide not to install the Retrofill breaker until a later time, then you can store it away
for installing it later.
