Removing the circuit breakers
Warning:
Do not stand under the circuit breaker
during the lowering operation.
Caution:
When using the switchgear breaker lifting
device, do not unwind the cable completely from
the drum. To lift the breaker, turn the device
operating crank clockwise. To lower the breaker,
turn the device operating crank counter-clockwise.
To remove the Emax 2 circuit breaker, proceed as
follows:
1. Open the breaker by pressing the
OFF/OPEN button.
2. Press the "Push to operate" button to enable the
racking mechanism and insert the racking
handle. Rotate the handle counterclockwise until
the breaker travels from CONNECT to TEST, as
shown by the position indicator. Upon reaching
TEST, again press the "Push to operate" button to
enable the racking mechanism and resume
turning the handle counterclockwise until
reaching DISCONNECT. This operation should be
performed with the door closed. If the breaker
closing spring is fully charged, press the
"Discharge" button to discharge the energy.
3. Open the compartment door and fully extend the
draw-out rails. Move the breaker out until the rail
stops. This is the WITHDRAWN position. The
Emax 2 circuit breaker has an interlock which
prevents the breaker from being able to move to
the DISCONNECT position if the breaker's
mechanism's spring is in the Charged state.
4. Attach the breaker lifting plates, the lifting beam
and lifting device securely and raise breaker off
draw-out rails.
5. Push the draw-out rails back into the
compartment.
6. Pull the breaker forward until the primary
disconnects clear the compartment.
7. Lower the breaker onto a flat surface free of
protrusions that could damage the breaker's
internal parts.
8. Close the breaker compartment door. If the
circuit breaker will be removed from the
compartment for an extended period of time.
An optional dead front cover, catalog
RSGFTDRCVR26 , may be ordered and installed
to prevent access to live conductor parts.
