Step 17: Installing the Retrofitted Breaker
in the Cell
Do not leave the breaker in an intermediate
position in the switchgear cell. Always leave it
in the CONNECTED, DISCONNECTED, or
(optional) TEST position. Failure to do so could
lead to improper positioning of the breaker and
flashover, causing death, serious personal
injury, and / or property damage.
Note: It is the responsibility of the Retrofitter
to insure proper Breaker / Cell fit. When
racking the Breaker into the connected
position, the Retrofitter MUST FOLLOW BOTH
the manufacturer’s instructions and the
customer’s safety standards and procedures
for racking a Breaker into the connected
position.
A. With the Breaker in the Open position and the
springs discharged, slowly rack the Breaker
into the Connected position, making sure there
is no interference or binding. The Breaker
should rack smoothly and without mechanical
interference between any Breaker and Cell
parts. The Retrofitter will feel some resistance
when the primary fingers connect onto the
stabs of the Cell. This is normal.
However, if any unusual resistance is detected
that could be abnormal interference between
Breaker and Cell parts, stop immediately and
move the Breaker out of the Connected
position. Examine what is causing the
interference and correct the situation.
