Mounting Disconnect Switch onto the Structure
•
Check mounting surfaces for unevenness. Switch bases will warp on uneven surfaces. Use
shims under bases to level if necessary.
•
Bolt bases solidly to the structure.
Rigging used to hit the poles should be attached to the base with steadying guides
attached to prevent lipping of the switch pole. Do not lift the switch by attaching to
the live parts. Lift the switch poles onto the structure, being sure the blade is in the
closed position. Refer to the control arrange-ment drawing for proper placement of
the switch on the structure.
