The Citadel vacuum circuit breaker performs its closing and opening functions by
using three vacuum interrupters connected to a stored-energy operating mechanism.
To operate properly and safely, it is necessary to have electrical controls and interlock
devices. The Draw-out function is enabled by having disconnect devices to connect
the circuit breaker to both primary (finger cluster assemblies) and control (secondary
connector) power. The stored energy operating mechanism is housed in its own
rugged, electrically grounded metal enclosure located on the front of the breaker.
Depending on voltage class, insulating barriers may be located between the vacuum
interrupters and along their outer sides.
This section describes the breaker’s major subassembly and is a basic primer tool in
the operation, installation, maintenance of the circuit breaker.
