LETHAL VOLTAGES PRESENT!!
On completion of the assembly, the unit must be flash tested at 4000 volts.
1. With the breaker completely assembled and with the switch “ON” apply 2000 volts initially and in-
crease rapidly to 4000 volts between the main casting and one of the pins of the plug on the power supply
cord. Apply test to both live and neutral pins.
2. The full voltage of 4000 volts should be maintained without breakdown or flashover for a few seconds.
3. If the armature has been tested, remove the carbon brushes before carrying out the test, (thus avoiding
over-stressing the armature insulation system.)
4. The test voltage must be applied between the main casting and each live pin of the plug in succession.
1. Ensure the unit is switched
ON
before testing. Operate the unit for approx. 10 minutes at
half
voltage
for initial ‘bedding in’ of the carbon brushes followed by full operational voltage. Compare readings with
Performance Data.
