Frequency Remark
Maintenance
visits
Once or twice per year
We recommend at least 2
CO cycles CO per year for
circuit breakers that are
infrequently used, to
check proper functioning
of the circuit breaker and
the associated command---
control circuits.
Inspections Every 5 years
Inspection requires the
equipment to be shut off.
Nonetheless the breaking
chambers and other sub---
assemblies do not need to
be dismantled.
Revision
Once one of the following
criteria is met :
D service duration ≥ 20
years
D number of mechanical
cycles ≥ 3 000
D electrical wear
We nonetheless recommend
inspecting the most used
pole or circuit breaker, and
adapting the maintenance
plan for the other equipment
in accordance with the
observed results.
