WARNING
Type AB "De-ion" circuit breakers are large, completely enclosed
devices equipped with "De-ion" arc chambers and interchangeable trip
units. The "De-ion" chamber effectively interrupts a short circuit without
outward disturbance.
When the breaker is open the handle is in either the mid or the OFF
position. If in mid-position the breaker has been tripped automatically
and the latch must be reset by moving the handle to the extreme OFF
position before attempting to restore to service. Close, after resetting
the latch by moving the handle to the ON position.
