5. With the local or remote close signal still applied, the 
anti-pump feature of the SSCD “locks out” the close 
coil.  In doing so, the circuit breaker mechanism will not 
pump should it close into a faulted circuit. 
 
6. The circuit breaker can be tripped electrically by 
operation of remote trip control or by operating the 
optional local electric trip push button.  When tripped in 
this manner, the trip coil is energized through the 
SSCD and the auxiliary switch "a" contact, which 
releases the stored energy in the contact and opening 
springs, thereby opening the breaker. 
 
7.  Tripping the circuit breaker opens the “a" contacts 
and closes the “b” contacts of the auxiliary switch.  At 
that point, the motor circuit is once again complete and 
the motor will charge the closing springs. 
 
 

CLOSING SPRING OPERATION 

 
The two closing springs supply the power that closes 
the circuit breaker and also charge the two opening 
springs during the closing operation.  The closing 
springs are charged by a motor in the electrically 
operated breaker and charged by hand in the manually 
operated breaker;  however, in either type the springs 
are charged the same amount and, when charged, the 
spring energy is available to close the breaker, thus 
referred to as "stored energy".  In electrically operated 
models, the closing springs are normally charged when 
the breaker is opened.  If charged after closing, (by 
using the manual handle) the breaker may be opened 
and then reclosed without recharging the springs.  The 
closing springs are automatically discharged when the 
breaker is moved from the disconnected to the 
withdrawn position.  This prevents accidental discharge 
and closing. 
 
 

INSTALLATION, INITIAL TESTING, AND 
REMOVAL 

 
For initial installation of breakers in the "CONNECTED" 
position, the supply for the primary circuit should be de-
energized.  Testing of the breaker must be done in the 
test position. 
 

Installation (See Figure 1) 

 
The circuit breaker must be in the “OPEN” position, the 
racking crank (8, Figure 1) when inserted in opening is 
rotated counterclockwise until the racking cam roller 
(19) is rotated down into a 45" angle, and the motor 
disconnect switch (14) for electrically operated circuit 
breakers is in the "OFF” position.  NOTE: Lever (11) 
must be pushed down to permit the rotation of crank 

(8). 
 
Open compartment door and lower the right and left 
hand track extensions to their fully extended position.  
Use lifting yoke (9, Figure 1 ), which is inserted in holes 
in the upper rear frame, and lower the circuit breaker 
wheels (7) onto the track extensions.  Remove lifting 

yoke. Push circuit breaker into compartment until 
racking cam rollers (19) stop against their guides. 
 
If breaker will not insert fully, check to insure that the 
breaker rating matches that of the intended cubicle.  
Interference blocking is provided to prevent installation 
of a breaker into an incorrectly rated cell. 
 

     CAUTION   CAUTION   CAUTION   CAUTION     

 

RAISE TRACK EXTENSIONS INTO COMPARTMENT 
PRIOR TO RACKING THE CIRCUIT BREAKER. 
 
Insert racking crank (8, Figure 1) into opening and 
depress drawout lever (11).  Turn crank clockwise until 
automatically stopped.  Breaker is now in 
"DISCONNECT" position.  If the cubicle door is closed 
the label on the right side of the escutcheon (5) will 
show “DISCONNECT". 
 
Again depress drawout lever (11) and turn crank 
clockwise until automatically stopped.  Breaker is now 
in “TEST” position. 
 
 

Checking Circuit Breaker Operation in “TEST” 
Position (Manually Operated Models) (See Figure 1) 

 
a. Manually reset automatic trip indicator (15) if it 
protrudes approximately 1/2 ". Push in to reset. 
 
b. Charge and close circuit breaker; See “Manual 
Closing Operation" below. 
 
c. Trip by manual "TRIP" button (10). 
 
d. Check each auxiliary device for proper operation. 
 

Checking Circuit Breaker Operation in 
"CONNECTED" Position 

 
After completing check procedures in “TEST” position, 

WARNING   WARNING   WARNING   WARNING 

DO NOT REMOVE THE INTERFERENCE 
BLOCKING IN AN EFFORT TO ALLOW CIRCUIT 
BREAKER RACKING.  RISK TO PERSONNEL AND 
SERIOUS DAMAGE TO THE CIRCUIT BREAKER 
AND CUBICLE CAN RESULT.
