Before commissioning the switchgear, the connection compartment / connection
duct may only be permanently closed by bolting tight under the following conditions:
• The connection compartment / connection duct is free from foreign objects
and pollution
• All previous assembly work inside the connection compartment /
connection duct has been fully and properly completed
Verify completeness and correctness of the previous assembly work in the
connection compartment / connection duct. This also includes:
• Check the control tightening torques of the bolted joints, and
correct the torques if required
• Check earthing of sealing ends
• In case of welded floor fixing: Check the welded seam and the
corrosion protection
Record the proper condition of the connection compartment / connection
duct after bolting together, so that this is clear without any doubt before
commissioning the switchgear.
Before executing any installation work, read and understand the
corresponding chapters in the Operating Instructions with order number
