5. Transport
Do not open the packing cases during transport.
Whenever possible, transport the breaker to the
installation site in its (unopened) original packing. Pay
attention to handling markings.
Immediately after receipt of a consignment, check the
entire packing for signs of damage (see under "Arrival at
site").
CAUTION
The vacuum circuit-breaker may be lifted only by
means of suitable gear attached to the correct points.
Non-compliance can lead to damage.
5.1
Packing Cases
The 3AF 01 outdoor vacuum circuit-breakers are
despatched in one wooden case or in corrugated board.
The equipment is protected by polyethylene sheet while
packing.
Support structure is strapped together and
supplied separately.
The case contains the base frame (P-2, Fig. 7) with
interrupter assemblies (P-1, Fig. 7) which are housed in
porcelain insulators and mechanism housing (P-G, Fig. 1).
This case also contains the foundation bolts (Fig. 5) with
nuts, plain washers and spring washers and any other
loose items ordered. The CB is packed and transported
with vacuum interrupters in the open condition. Lifting
instructions and consignee address are marked on the
cases.
5.2
Desiccant
Bags of desiccant for moisture absorption are fixed inside
the sealed packing. The effectiveness of the desiccant is
indicated by a moisture indicator which discolours under
conditions of excessive atmospheric humidity.
Indicator blue
= desiccant fully active
Indicator turned pink = desiccant has become
ineffective, contents moist
5.3
Loading & Unloading during Transport
It is recommended that the breakers be transported to
the site in their original packing.
Care must be taken to see that the packing unit is not
damaged. The packing units must be stored so as to
prevent shifting, tipping or falling down under normal
transport conditions and to provide protection against
abrupt braking, centrifugal forces, jolts from shunting as
well as rolling and pitching at sea. Do not use hooks for
loading and unloading. The packing is marked by arrow,
glass and umbrella symbols to ensure safe transportation
and paper storage.
The design and loading capacity of the means of
transport used at site must be suitable for the intended
purpose.
5.4
Arrival at site
Check immediately the packing cases all over for
damage, if any, when they arrive.
Should a packing case be found to have been damaged,
open the covers so that the contents become visible and
can be checked.
CAUTION
When damaged (or presumably damaged) equipment
is unpacked, take care that it is stored in a dry room
and repack it if necessary. It is important that the
equipment be inspected right away to determine the
degree of damage, its cause and, if possible, the
person or persons responsible. The transport agent
must be informed immediately about the damage and
invited to take part in a joint damage assessment.
Make sure that any external damage noticed during
inspection is certified immediately by the transport
agent, since this is indispensable for claiming
damages from the insurance company.
In the case of overseas shipments, the authorized claims
agent must be invited immediately for inspection and
damage certification (at the port of discharge if
possible).
CAUTION
Serious damage must be documented
photographically.
