Arcflash Reduction Maintenance Switch

Application and Installation

Figure 24. Warning and Circuit Active Labels installed on the 

Mounting Surface.

Step 2: Final Wiring and Breaker Preparation

Figure 25. Overview: Final Wiring of the RSM, Mode Selector 

Switch, Indicator Light, and Battery Holder.

A. Plug the female connector on the mode selector switch bat-

tery harness onto the male receptacle at the back of the bat-

tery holder.  Open the battery holder door and install the 

battery.

Figure 26. Connecting the Battery Holder to the Mode Selector 

Switch Battery Harness.

B. If the breaker was removed from the cell to install the Arc-

flash Reduction Maintenance Switch, temporarily place the 

breaker back into the cell.

C. Route the mode selector switch harness from the switch loca-

tion to the RSM making sure it is away from any moving parts 

within the breaker.  In routing the harness, be sure to leave a 

service loop in the harness to facilitate racking the breaker in 

to and out of the cell.  If the mode selector switch was 

mounted to the cell door, also provide a service loop at hinge 

to allow the door to fully open and close.

CAUTION

MAKE SURE THE BREAKER IS IN THE RACKED-OUT POSITION AND 

REMAINS DE-ENERGIZED UNTIL FINAL WIRING IS COMPLETED.

CAUTION

DO NOT PERFORM ANY MAINTENANCE: INCLUDING BREAKER 

CHARGING, CLOSING, TRIPPING, OR ANY OTHER FUNCTION WHICH 

COULD CAUSE SIGNIFICANT MOVEMENT OF THE BREAKER WHILE 

IT IS ON THE EXTENSION RAILS.  DOING SO MAY CAUSE THE 

BREAKER TO SLIP FROM THE RAILS AND FALL, POTENTIALLY 

CAUSING SEVERE PERSONAL INJURY TO THOSE IN THE VICINITY

.

CAUTION

DO NOT LEAVE THE BREAKER IN AN INTERMEDIATE POSITION IN 

THE SWITCHGEAR CELL.  ALWAYS LEAVE IT IN THE CONNECTED, 

DISCONNECTED, OR (OPTIONAL) TEST POSITION.  FAILURE TO DO 

SO COULD LEAD TO IMPROPER POSITIONING OF THE BREAKER 

AND FLASHOVER, CAUSING DEATH, SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY, 

AND / OR PROPERTY DAMAGE
