Electrical connection of the prime conductor
The busbars can be purchased from the Siemens Service Center.
Busbar connection
Adjust the busbars in such a way that, before fastening, they lie flat easily and fit the
holes on the contact areas of the vacuum circuit-breaker.
Preparing contact areas
Use a steel brush to brush contact areas (cross-wise) until they are metallically
bright and wipe them off with a clean cloth.
After cleaning, very lightly grease the bright contact areas with acid-free Vaseline
(e. g. Shell-Vaseline 8420) and screw together immediately.
DANGER
High-voltage – danger to life
Test the vacuum circuit-breaker in the switchbay with high-voltage applied only
after faultless functioning has been ascertained (see “Commissioning” on page
45).
Note
Grease the busbars with contact grease prior to mounting.
