Motorized Spring Charging Unit
The unique motor/gearbox unit is specially designed to
operate with the full range of EntelliGuard G. It is easily
fitted with three heavy-duty bolts. After a breaker close
operation, the unit automatically recharges the spring and
makes it ready for immediate open and re-close should the
need arise. High speed recharging ensures that the springs
are fully charged within approximately three seconds
following a release. All electrically operated (EO) ANSI/UL
breakers are equipped with “Spring Charged” contacts
(GSCC1R) for status indication (Table 6.1).
