Blade Release
The SE-lOOM hook release should be adjusted to release the auxiliary
blade when the primary contacts and blade are 1/2" to 1" apart.
Be certain the auxiliary blade latches into the arcing contacts in
the chute on each operation. The auxiliary blade is released before
the primary c0ntacts are closed so that it will close first and give
a positive closing action even when the switch is inadvertantly op
erated slowly.

FINAL INSPECTION
ALL
SWITCHES
Before placing the SE-100 into service, a final inspection should
be made consisting of the following:
1. Check all nuts, washers, bolts, cotter pins and terminal connec
tions for tightness.
2. See that all bearing surfaces of the mechanism have been lubri
cated.
3.
Operate the device slowly several times by hand and note that
there is no binding or excessive friction.
4.
See that any place where the surface of the paint has been dam
aged during installation is repainted immediately.
5.
Replace all barriers, covers, and any other parts that may have
been removed during installation.
Hi-Potential Test
If the device has been stored for a long period of time before instal
lation, it is recommended that the insulation be checked before it is
placed in service. A standard 60 cycle high potential test at 14,000
volts RMS for the 4.8KV switch and 27,000 volts
RMS
for the
13. 2
KV
switch will normally indicate whether the device is satisfactory for
service. With the switch contacts in the fully opened position, apply
the high potential to each terminal individually for one minute with
all other terminals and the frame grounded. After high potential tests
