SECTION 3 – LIFTING, MOUNTING AND INSTALLATION
WARNING
IMPROPER INSTALLATION, OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE
Ensure only qualified personnel install, operate, service and maintain all electrical equipment.
Failure to comply with these instructions could result in death or serious injury.
WARNING
FALLING OBJECT
Ensure lifting equipment has capability for device
being lifted.
Wear hard hat, gloves and safety shoes.
Failure to comply with these instructions could result in death or serious injury.
CAUTION
PRODUCT DAMAGE
Ensure circuit breaker and its accessories are
always used within their designated ratings.
Do not allow the circuit breaker to hit a hard
surface while handling.
Do not drag or slide the circuit breaker across a
hard or rough surface.
Failure to comply with these instructions may result
in product damage.
NOTICE
A factory-installed rejection feature prevents mismatching circuit breakers and cassettes/substructures, preventing the insertion of a circuit breaker with a lower rating into a higher rated cassette/substructure, or the insertion of a higher rated circuit breaker into a lower rated cassette/substructure.
CIRCUIT BREAKER UNPACKING (FIG. 3.1)
1. Inspect the shipping container for obvious signs of
rough handling and/or external damage incurred during transportation.
2. Record any observed damage for reporting to the
carrier. Ensure all recorded reports and claims include the order number and nameplate information.
3. Remove the banding straps and lift off the top cover.
4. Remove all packaging material.
5. Remove all product documentation and store properly.
6. Unscrew the mounting screws that fasten the circuit
breaker to the bottom of the shipping pallet and remove the circuit breaker.
Figure 3.1. Unpacking the Circuit Breaker
BASIC CIRCUIT BREAKER CONSTRUCTION Figure 3.2. Circuit Breaker Construction
EntelliGuard E circuit breakers consist of rigid front and rear housings made of thermoset composite resins which provide high structural strength and excellent dielectric properties. These housings enclose a contact system consisting of a moving portion and a fixed portion:
Moving portion: comprised of multiple finger assemblies
connected to a conductor through flexible copper connections. The number of finger assemblies depends on the circuit breaker’s continuous and short circuit ratings. Each finger assembly has an arcing contact and a main contact.
Fixed portion: consists of a main fixed contact which is
brazed to a conductive pad, and arc runner which is fastened to the conductive pad which guides the arc to the arc chamber.
Each pole has an arc chamber comprised of arc chamber molds which houses the de-ion plates and filtering system. The pole configuration depends upon the breaker frame size.
The operating mechanism is mounted on the front housing. The energy stored in the mechanism is used to close the contact system. The mechanism is coupled to each pole by a common layshaft/drive shaft.
