Panels with motor operating mechanism control
139-2021.9 / 07 NXAIR M 217
23.7 Racking the withdrawable circuit-breaker to service position manually
Conflicting operation
The requirement of setting the panel to either local or remote control prevents
operating the panel locally and centrally at the same time.
For any local operations ─ manual or electrical ─ set the panel to local
control, for example by switching the local-remote switch to LOCAL
position.
Maloperation
Racking the withdrawable circuit-breaker is only permissible if the circuit-breaker
is in OPEN position.
Check if the circuit-breaker is in OPEN position.
If required, switch the circuit-breaker to OPEN position before racking.
Maloperation
Racking the withdrawable circuit-breaker is only permissible if the feeder
earthing switch is in OPEN position.
Check if the feeder earthing switch is in OPEN position.
If required, switch the feeder earthing switch to OPEN position before
racking.
Incorrect stress of the motor operating mechanism
When the withdrawable circuit-breaker is racked manually, the motor operating
mechanism is also turned via the wheel chain mechanism.
Turn the racking crank slowly and uniformly to avoid high reverse polarity
voltage.
