Inspection of electrical and
mechanical accessories
Check the accessories:
1. Check that the accessories are securely fixed to the circuit-breaker.
2. Check that the accessories are connected correctly to the circuit-breaker.
3. Make sure that the coils (YU-YO-YC), if present, are in good condition (no excessive wear and tear,
overheating, rupture).
4. Make sure that the mechanical operation counter functions correctly (if present) by operating the
circuit-breaker.
5. Check the wear on the brushes of the gearmotor and if necessary replace them.
NOTE:
it is advisable to replace the gear motor if it has performed more than 10000 spring
charging operations or reached 50% of the declared mechanical life of the circuit-breaker.
Inspection of the protection trip
unit
Check that the trip unit is in good condition:
1. Power the protection trip unit with an Ekip TT battery unit.
2. Check the correct operation of the protection trip unit: tripping test with "Trip Test" and "Autotest".
3. With an Ekip Dip trip unit verify the absence of alarms through frontal LEDs.
4. With an Ekip Touch trip unit, verify the absence of alarms via the display and the front LEDs.
5. Make sure that the cables are correctly connected to the modules and to the trip unit (if applicable).
6. On an Ekip Touch trip unit check the percentage of wear on the contacts of the circuit-breaker.
7. Finally, remove the Ekip TT battery unit.
