-insulated circuit-breaker panel:  

Type 

gae

.630 -1LSV(G)-/5/  

in modular extensible design up to 24 kV, 20 kA

Operation 

5.2.  Padlocking facility

The circuit-breaker panel is fitted with padlocking facilities 

as standard (Figure 5.2). The padlocking facility is opened 

by pressing the thumb against the locking resistance of the 

locking cover in clockwise direction. The padlocking facility 

stops in end position by means of an integrated stop, so 

that also the adjacent padlocking facility can be opened.

To ensure that switching actions are always fully carried out, 

gates are fitted to the switch actuators. These ensure that 

the switching lever can only be removed in the relevant end 

limit position.

In the description of the switching operations in 

chapters 5.3 and 5.4 the padlocking facilities are not 

shown, for the purpose of a clearer representation 

of switch position indicators and actuating shafts.

When delivered, the circuit-breaker panel is in the following 

state:

•  Fastener closed (anti-reverse interlock optional).
