SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
WARNING
POWER CIRCUIT BREAKERS ARE EQUIPPED
WITH HIGH SPEED, HIGH ENERGY OPERATING
MECHANISMS. THE BREAKERS AND THEIR
ENCLOSURES ARE DESIGNED WITH SEVERAL
BUILT-IN INTERLOCKS AND SAFETY
FEATURES INTENDED TO PROVIDE SAFE AND
PROPER OPERATING SEQUENCES. TO PROVIDE MAXIMUM PROTECTION FOR PERSONNEL ASSOCIATED WITH THE INSTALLATION,
OPERATION, AND MAINTENANCE OF THESE
BREAKERS, THE FOLLOWING PRACTICES
MUST BE FOLLOWED. FAILURE TO FOLLOW
THESE PRACTICES MAY RESULT IN DEATH,
PERSONAL INJURY, OR PROPERTY DAMAGE.
• Only qualified persons, as defined in the National
Electric Code, who are familiar with the installation and maintenance of power circuit breakers
and their associated switchgear assemblies
should perform any work associated with these
breakers.
IL 33-DAH-1
• Completely read and understand all instructions
before attempting any installation, operation,
maintenance, or modification of these breakers.
• Always turn off and lock out the power source
feeding the breaker prior to attempting any
installation, maintenance, or modification of
the breaker. Do not use the circuit breaker as
the sole means for isolating a high voltage
circuit. Follow all lockout and tagging rules
of the National Electric Code and all other
applicable codes, regulations, and work rules.
• Do not work on a closed breaker or a breaker
with the closing springs charged. Trip (open) the
breaker and be sure the stored energy springs
are discharged before performing any work. The
breaker may trip open or the charging springs
may discharge, causing crushing or cutting
injuries.
• For drawout breakers, trip (open), and then
remove the breaker to a well-lit work area before
beginning work.
• Do not perform any maintenance: including
breaker charging, closing, tripping, or any other
function which could cause significant movement
of the breaker while it is on the extension rails.
Doing so may cause the breaker to slip from the
rails and fall, potentially causing severe personal
injury to those in the vicinity.
• 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.
• Do not defeat any safety interlock. Such
interlocks are intended to protect personnel
and equipment from damage due to flashover
and exposed contacts. Defeating an interlock
could lead to death, severe personal injury,
and / or property damage.

Step 15: Testing the Breaker
A. Measure the force necessary to trip the
Breaker at the point where the DTA impacts the
Trip Finger. The force necessary to trip the
Breaker MUST NOT EXCEED SEVEN (7) lbs.
B. The Retrofit must be tested using primary
injection. Refer to Section 8 of the
Instructions
for the Application of Digitrip RMS Retrofit Kits
on Power Circuit Breakers
(Publication
AD 33-855-1, June, 1997), supplied with the
Retrofit Kit, for detailed testing procedures and
specifications. For test information specific to
the Trip Unit, refer to the IL publication supplied
with the Retrofit Kit (see the Pick List for the
IL number).
C. While Section 8 of the
Instructions for the
Application of Digitrip RMS Retrofit Kits on
Power Circuit Breakers
provides the information
necessary for testing the Breaker, please keep
the following notes in mind when reviewing
other sections of the publication.
CAUTION:
When all testing is complete, the Trip
Unit must be reset. Failure to do so may cause
the battery in the Rating plug to run down.
Notes:
1. Publication AD-33-855 was created
specifically for the “hundred” series (500,
600, 700, etc.) Retrofit Kits. Therefore certain
sections and figures do not apply to the
“ten” series (510, 610, 810, etc.) Retrofit Kits.
Specifically, these are Sections 13 and 14, as
well as Figures 3-2, 3-3, and 3-4.
3.
For 810 and 910 Kits Only.
Without any
power applied to the system (neither the 120
volt power supply nor the Aux. Power
Module connected), plug the External
Harness into the Cell Harness and check the
impedance between COM 1 and COM 2. The
impedance should be between one (1) and
three (3) ohms. If the impedance is not
within this range, trace the wiring and
examine each connection to assure its
integrity.
Confirm that the IMPACC communication
wiring is correct by following the procedures
detailed in Section 7.4 of the Instructions for
the Application of Digitrip RMS Retrofit Kits
on Power Circuit Breakers. Note that for 810
and 910 Kits, the impedance between COM 1
and COM 2 should be between one (1) and
three (3) ohms.
When testing is complete, disconnect the
External Harness from the Cell Harness.
Final External Harness connection will be
performed in Step 16.
For Kits Supplied with a Cell Harness Only.
Step 16: Mounting the Cell Harness
A. The Cell Harness is to be mounted in the
Breaker Cell. The connector end is to be
mounted on the right front side of the Cell, in a
location suitable for connection with the
External Harness. The Terminal Blocks can be
mounted anywhere space is available in the
Cell as long as connection to the External
Harness can be made.
For All Kits Other Than 510 Basic.
2.
If testing
the Breaker with Short Delay or Ground
Fault functions, be sure to either plug in the
Cell Harness Assembly or use the Zone
Interlock Shorting Plug. Failure to do so may
result in shorter than expected trip times.
Effective December, 1998
B. Route the Cell Harness wiring to keep it away
from any moving parts within the Cell Housing.
Page 16
IL 33-DAH-1
Step 17: Installing the Retrofitted Breaker
in the Cell
WARNING
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.
WARNING
It is solely the responsibility of the Retrofitter to
make the necessary modifications to the original Racking Mechanism, or to manufacture a
Racking Bar Adapter, to insure safe racking of
the Breaker into the Cell. If the Retrofitter opts
to modify the original Racking Mechanism, the
Racking Bar Receptacle must be removed from
the Racking Mechanism, moved to a location
where the Racking Bar will not contact the DTA
during racking, and welded to the Racking
Mechanism.
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
the 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.
If the Retrofitter opts to manufacture a Racking
Bar Adapter for use with the original Racking
Mechanism configuration, the drawing and
photo below should be used as a basis.
