I.L. 29C211E

Effective 04/04

MAKE SURE THAT ALL EQUIPMENT ON THE LOAD
END OF THE CIRCUIT BREAKER IS DISCONNECTED
BEFORE OPERATING THE ELECTRICAL OPERA-
TOR. SWITCHING OPERATIONS COULD CAUSE
DAMAGE TO EQUIPMENT, ESPECIALLY EQUIP-
MENT REQUIRING A CONTROLLED SHUTDOWN.

DO NOT ENERGIZE THE ELECTRICAL OPERATOR
MORE THAN FOUR OPERATIONS PER MINUTE.
EXCEEDING THE MAXIMUM OPERATING RATE CAN
DAMAGE THE OPERATING SOLENOIDS.

DO NOT CONNECT THE ELECTRICAL OPERATOR
TO VOLTAGES ABOVE THE RATED VOLTAGE OF
THE DEVICE. VOLTAGES THAT EXCEED THE
RATED VOLTAGE CAN CAUSE DAMAGE.

The operating solenoids will operate within 10% of
the electrical operator rated voltage. If the supply
voltage is below this limit, it is possible for the sole-
noids to attempt to toggle the circuit breaker handle
but not have enough energy.

EOP Electrical Operators are suitable for use on Series
C, J and K frame circuit breakers only.

Manual operating hex wrench is to be located close to
electrical operator for emergency use. Replace wrench in
locating clips after use.

Remote Electrical CLOSE/OPEN Operation

Check remote electrical CLOSE/OPEN operation using
the remote ON and OFF control devices. Perform the fol-
lowing steps:

WHEN PERFORMING STEPS 3-1 THROUGH 3-9,
OBSERVE THE MAXIMUM OPERATING RATE OF
ONE OPERATION PER MINUTE. FAILURE TO
OBSERVE THIS OPERATING RATE CAN RESULT IN
DAMAGE TO THE ELECTRICAL OPERATOR

3-1.

Slide REMOTE OPERATION switch to the ON
position by moving padlock bracket to the non-
pad lock position. (See Figure 3-1.)

3-2.  Determine the electrical operator mechanism posi-

tion (CLOSED, Trip, or OPEN).

3-3.

Operate the remote control device corresponding
to the electrical operator mechanism position. (If
the display indicates the CLOSED position, oper-
ate ON remote control device.) Verify that the elec-
trical operator does not switch the circuit breaker.

3-4.

Operate the OFF remote control device. Verify that
the electrical operator switches the circuit breaker
to the OPEN position.

3-5.

If circuit breaker is in the Trip position, operate the
OFF remote control to reset the circuit breaker.

3-6.

Operate the ON remote control device again, and
verify that the electrical operator switches the cir-
cuit breaker.

3-7.

With a screwdriver, press the manual PUSH-TO-
TRIP button on the circuit breaker. (See Figure 3-
1
.) Verify that the display indicates the Trip posi-
tion.

3-8.

Operate the OFF remote control device, and verify
that the display indicates the OPEN (reset) posi-
tion.

3-9.

Operate the ON remote control device, and verify
that the display indicates the CLOSED position.
