Dimensions and Weights
Figure 2 shows essential dimensional information for a
Type GWC sectionalizer, along with its weight and oil
capacity.
Operating Controls
The operating controls of the sectionalizer are located on
the front panel, within the control cabinet, as shown in
Figure 3.
Remote Control Switch
In the ON position, this switch permits the sectionalizer
to be operated by remotely located “dry” contacts which
are wired to a terminal block in the control cabinet.
Separate normally-open contacts are required for the
open and close operation.
In the OFF position, this switch disables remote con-
trol but
does not prevent automatic operations (by
means of the control panel switches).
An extra set of contacts on this switch can provide
switch position information to the remote location.
115Vac - 5amp Breaker Switch
In the ON position, this switch energizes all 115Vac
power to the control cabinet and the operating housing
of the sectionalizer.
Manual Control Switch
While in the TRIP position, the sectionalizer main con-
tacts are open and the closing circuit is disabled.
When placed in the CLOSE position, the sectionalizer
closing circuit is energized, the closing solenoid will be
momentarily energized and the sectionalizer will close.
