the disconnect and test positions and remain open between the 

test and connect positions. (Refer to Section 4.7 for information 

concerning correct operation of these components).

5.10   OPERATION, INSERTION AND REMOVAL (LEVERING-

IN VERSION)
5.10.1   OPERATIONAL POSITIONS (LEVERING-IN VERSION)

The breaker has four basic operational positions:
(1)   Breaker withdrawn from cell. In the “withdrawn” position the 

breaker is out of the cell. The levering handle is not required for 

this position. The breaker can be operated in this position and 

extreme care should be exercised to avoid inadvertent operation 

and possible injury or equipment damage.

(2)   Breaker in the cell in the disconnect position. (Figure 5.1)  As 

the breaker is pushed into the cell it will reach a position where 

all four wheels are on the cell floor guide rails and the floor spring 

discharge interlock has not activated. (For Canadian breakers the 

interlock plunger will rest in the first cell position.)  This is the 

“disconnect” position and the breaker can be manually operated 

because there is no interface of the cell floor interlocks with 

breaker interlock linkage. No cell labeling is provided to verify this 

position.

(3)   Breaker in the test position. (Figure 5.2)  The “test” position is 

achieved when the breaker has advanced into the cell from the 

disconnect position and the audible click of the lock engaging 

the interlock rail has been observed. (For Canadian breakers, the 

interlock plunger will rest in the second cell position.)  The test 

position can be verified by the inability to move the breaker in 

or out, the Interlock Pedal is in the up position, and the cell label 

“test” is visible on the floor of the cell in front of the breaker’s left 

front wheel. 

(4)  Breaker in the connect position. (Figure 5.4)  The “connect” 

position is achieved by moving the breaker into the cell using 

the levering handle until a mechanical stop is reached. As the 

breaker is advanced from the test position,  the primary voltage 

source shutters will open allowing the breaker stabs to engage 

with the source. This is the fully engaged or connected position. 

The connect position can be verified by the inability to move 

the breaker in or out, and the cell label “operating” is visible on 

the floor of the cell in front of the breaker’s left front wheel. The 

breaker is now ready for service.

 WARNING

DO NOT USE ANY TOOL TO LEVER THE BREAKER FROM TEST OR 

CONNECTED POSITION OTHER THAN THE LEVERING HANDLE. 

5.10.2   INSERTION PROCEDURE (LEVERING-IN VERSION)

a.  Place the breaker in the withdrawn position. In the “withdrawn” 

position the breaker is out of the cell. The levering handle is 

not required for this position. The breaker can be operated in 

this position and extreme care should be exercised to avoid 

inadvertent operation and possible injury or equipment damage.

 WARNING

THE BREAKER CAN BE OPERATED IN THE WITHDRAWN POSITION 

AND EXTREME CARE SHOULD BE EXERCISED TO AVOID INADVERTENT 

OPERATION AND POSSIBLE INJURY OR EQUIPMENT DAMAGE.

b.  From the withdrawn position, align the center groove of the 

breaker wheels with the guide rails of the cell.

c.  Check that the closing spring status indicator reads 

“DISCHARGED” and that the main contact status indicator reads 

“OPEN”. Manually trip, close, and trip the breaker as needed to 

obtain this status.
