Panels with motor operating mechanism control
The procedure for opening the circuit-breaker manually in panels with motor operating mechanism control is
identical with the procedure in panels without motor operating mechanism control.
For closing the circuit-breaker manually, see chapter 10.11.

23.13 Charging / discharging the spring energy store manually

Charging the spring energy store manually is carried out by inserting a hand crank through an actuating
opening in the high-voltage door, and turning it subsequently. Discharging can only be done manually. It is
carried out by pushing a rod alternately through the actuating openings for opening / closing the circuit-
breaker.
Charging and discharging manually can only be carried out when the control door is open. However, the
indicators for the circuit-breaker position and the closing spring state can still be seen through an inspection
window after closing the control door.

NOTICE
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.
NOTICE
Covered control elements
For safety reasons, the actuating opening for closing the circuit-breaker is covered
by the control door.
Open the control door to uncover the actuating opening on the high-
voltage door.
