5.8.3. Operation of the isolating device for
integrated metering
Important note
Switching is performed by means of an
loaded immediately before switching
and released by pulling the knob
4
. The
knob may only be pulled when the
mechanism is in position A or B.
Maloperation is prevented by a pawl

The device for operation of the voltage
transformers for measurement of the front
busbar (fig. 5.8.3.1) is located above the low
voltage compartment. The device for operation of
the voltage transformers for the rear busbar is
accessible from the rear of the panel. Both
devices are operated identically.
The isolating device can be secured with a
padlock. Remove the padlock and swing flap
2
to the left.
The controls and displays for the voltage
transformers are located behind the flap. Observe
the instruction label inside the flap. Check the
switch position indicator

• Pull lever
3
down and move it to the left (in the
opposite direction to the arrow). Allow the lever
to engage in the limit position. The mechanism
