Methods of handling outdoor
switchgear,
shown in Fig-
ure 2,.are much the
same as for indoor equipments except
that lifting
plates
are
provided
at the base of the structure.
The lifting
plates
should
be removed after the equipment
is
permanently
anchored
so that
passageway
at the ends
of the
equipment will not be obstructed.
Store
the circuit breakers
in a clean,
dry location in an
upright
position.
They must
be
properly
supported to
pre-
vent bending
of the studs or damage to any
of
the breaker
parts.
Do
not remove
any
protective
grease
until
they
are
ready to be installed.
A covering of kraft
or
other non-
absorbent
paper
will
prevent
dust from
settling
on
the
breakers.
STORAGE
If
breakers are not to be
placed
in
service at once, remove
them from
their shipping cartons and
thoroughly inspect
them. If ever5rthing is in
satisfactory
condition,
replace
the
breakers
in their
shipping cartons for storage, Do not re-

Equipment
move the
shipping
members
at
this time.
If it is necessary to
store
the
equipment for
any length
of
time, the
following
precautions
should be taken to
pre-
vent corrosion
or deterioration.
1.
IJncrate
the
equipment. Check thoroughly
for damage.
2. Store in a
clean, dry, rodent free
location
with
moderate
temperature
and
provide protective
coverings'to
pre-
vent dirt,
water,
or other foreign
substances
from enter-
ing
the
switchgear.
3.
If
dampness or condensation
may
be
encountered
in
the storage
location, heaters must be
placed
inside
the
units to
prevent
moisture damage. Approximately 250
watts of heat in each
unit is required. On outdoor
switchgear
this may be accomplished by making a
temporary
power
supply connection
to the heaters al-
ready installed
in the equipment.
CAUT|ON:
REMOVE
ALL CAR?OJVS
AND
OTHER MISCELLANEOUS PACKING
MA-
TERIAL FROM IJVS/DE
THE UNITS BEFORE
ENERGIZING
ANY HEATERS.
