Necessary checks
Depending on the panel type, the checks listed in the following table must be executed:
29.1 Visual check at the operating mechanisms and the three-position switches
• Check galvanically plated surfaces for traces of corrosion.
• Check lubrication of sliding surfaces.
• Check firm seating of all terminal connections.
29.2 Visual check of spring-operated mechanism
