6.   Putting into service

6.1 General 

procedures

–  Make sure that the power connections to the circuit-breaker terminals are tight
–  Perform al the preparatory operations on the release
–  Make sure that the power supply voltage of the auxiliary circuits is between 85% and 110% of the rated voltage of the electrical applications
–  To avoid temperature rises, make sure that there is suffi cient air exchange in the installation area
–  Also perform the inspections indicated in the following table.

Item inspected

 1 Manual operating mechanism

   

 

 2 Gearmotor (if provided)

 

 

 3  Undervoltage  release 
  (if provided)

  4   Shunt closing release (if provided)

  5   Shunt closing release (if provided).

  6  Lock for circuit-breaker in open position 

(key or padlock)

   

  7   Auxiliary circuit-breaker contacts 

 

Procedure

Perform a few opening, closing and release 
operations (see chap. 7.2).

WARNING
When there is an undervoltage release, the cir-
cuit-breaker can only be closed after the release 
itself has been electrically energized. 

Supply the spring loading gearmotor at the 
relative rated voltage.

Perform a few closing and opening operations.

Note. Supply the undervoltage release at the 
relative rated voltage (if provided).

Supply the undervoltage release at the relative 
rated voltage and perform the circuit-breaker 
closing operation.

Turn off the voltage supply to the release.
Supply the undervoltage release at the relative 
rated voltage and perform the circuit-breaker 
closing operation.

Close the circuit-breaker.
Supply the shunt opening release at the relative 
rated voltage. 

Open the circuit-breaker.
Power the shunt closing release at the its 
rated voltage.
Open the circuit-breaker, turn the key and 
remove it. Attempt the circuit-breaker closing 
operation.

Insert the auxiliary contacts into appropriate 
signalling circuits. Perform a few circuit-breaker 
closing and opening operations.

Successful check

The spring loading lever moves normally.

The springs are loaded normally.
The signals are normal.
The gearmotor stops when the springs have 
been loaded.

The gearmotor reloads the springs after each 

closing operation. 

The circuit-breaker closes normally. The signals 
are normal.

The circuit-breaker opens. The signal changes 
over.

The circuit-breaker opens normally. The signals 
are normal.

The circuit-breaker closes normally. The signals 
are normal.

Both manual and electrical closing are pre-
vented. 

Signalling occurs normally.
