Key to the charging condition indications:
Discharged
Charged
As a precondition for an autoreclosing sequence,
the operating mechanism is either (re-)charged
after a closing operation automatically by the
charging motor, or it requires (re-)charging by hand
if the operating mechanism is of the manual type.

Closing and opening
Closing:
• Press mechanical ON push-button 54.2, or
operate the electrical control unit.
Opening:
• Press mechanical OFF push-button 54.3, or
operate the electrical control unit.

The operating cycle counter 55.5 is automatically
incremented by one complete figure with each
switching cycle. On completion of a switching
operation the switch position indicator 55.4 in the
window of front plate 50.7. shows the appropriate
position of the circuit-breaker.
The anti-pumping relay K0 (wiring diagram in
firgure 7/3) prevents repeated ON-OFF switching
operations if, for example, the breaker is tripped by
a protection relay in response to a primary side fault
while a permanent electrical closing command is
simultaneously applied. The circuit-breaker can
then only be closed after the closing command has
been interrupted.
