Safety Notices
Be sure to read these instructions and other documents accompanying this
product. Please familiarise yourself with handling of this product, safety
information, and all other precautions before mounting, using, servicing or
inspection. In these instructions, safety notices are divided into "Warning"
and "Caution" according to the hazard level.
WARNING
A warning notice with this symbol indicates that
neglecting the suggested procedure or practice could result in lethal or
serious personal injury.
CAUTION
A caution notice with this symbol indicates that
neglecting the suggested procedure or practice could result in moderate
or slight personal injury and/or property damage.
Note that failing to observe
CAUTION
notices could result in serious
results in some cases. Because safety notices contain important information,
be sure to read and observe them.
Mounting Precautions
For detailed mounting dimensions, refer to either the Loadline or
System Loadbank catalogues.
CAUTION
Electrical work should only be undertaken by suitably qualified
persons.
Do not place the product an an area that is subject to high temperature,
high humidity, excessive dust air, corrosive gas, strong vibration and
shock, or other unusual conditions. Mounting in such areas could cause
a fire or malfunction.
Be careful to prevent foreign objects (debris, concrete, iron powder etc)
and rainwater from entering product. These materials inside the product
could cause a fire or malfunction.
Prior to commencing any work on the product, open an upstream circuit
breaker or isolator to ensure that no voltage is applied to the product
otherwise electrical shock may result.
For 4 pole breakers, be sure to connect a neutral conductor to the
N-phase pole, otherwise an overcurrent may hinder the product from
tripping thus resulting in a fire.
When connecting cable or busbar to the product, tighten terminal screws
to the torque specified in this manual,
otherwise, a fire could result.
After conductor connection, do not
apply excessive force to the terminals.
Otherwise, a fire may result.
For front-connected breakers, insulate all bare conductors of the line side
until the breaker end. If interpole barriers are packed, be sure to use the
barriers; moreover, insulate all bare conductors by insulting tape or the
like so that the tape overlaps with the barriers. Insufficient insulation may
result in short-circuit.
Do not block the arc gas vents of the product to ensure adequate arc space.
Blocking these vents could result in failure of circuit interruption.
Handling Precautions
WARNING
Never touch terminals. Otherwise, electric shock may result
CAUTION
When the breaker trips open automatically, remove the cause, then
return the handle to the ON position. Should a fault be interrupted,
the breaker must be inspected, otherwise, a fire may result.
Maintenance Precautions
CAUTION
Service and/or inspection of the product must be done by persons
having expert knowledge.
Before servicing or inspecting the product, open an upstream circuit
breaker or the like to isolate all sources of power. Otherwise, electric
shock may result.
Regularly check that the breaker terminal screws are tightened to
torque values shown within this manual, failure to do so may result
in fire.
Other Precautions
Do not carry this product by accessory leads, as this may cause damage
to the product.
Unauthorised opening of the breaker cover will invalidate product warranty.
When installing the product, use wires or conductors, the cross sectional
areas of which accommodate the rated current of the product. Using wires
or conductors with inadequate cross sectional areas may cause false
tripping and overheat.
