Earthing

For the fixed version circuit breaker, carry out
earthing by means of the special screw marked
with the relative symbol.
Clean and degrease the area around the screw to a
diameter of about 30 mm and, on completion of
assembly, cover the joint again with vaseline
grease. Use a conductor (busbar or braid) with a
cross-section conforming to the Standards in
force.

Perform switching operations with the front
doors shut.

disconnected position to the service
position
• Connect control wiring plug 36.1.
• Close the front door.
• Ensure that the circuit breaker is in the OFF
position.
• Fit hand crank 38 on square spigot 35.2 of the
spindle mechanism 35.1.
Note:
In order to avoid damage to the operating mechanism, use the original
hand crank only.
- Standard version without slip clutch
- Optional version with slip clutch
• Turn the crank clockwise according the table until
the stop is reached and the withdrawable part 31
is in the service position.
Note:
Do not use force to move the withdrawable breaker part.
Maximum torque 25 Nm!
Comply with the conditions for movement of the

• Observe the position indicator in the front door.
• Remove hand crank 38 by first pressing slightly
Note:
When removing the crank, it is essential to ensure that the spring-loaded
guide 35.6 slides into the untensioned front position. Spindle 35.1 is thus
locked in place, preventing inadvertent turning of the spindle. Turning of
the spindle opens auxiliary switches -BT2/-BT1 and thus prevents the
circuitbreaker from being operated.
Note:
The withdrawable part must not be stopped at any position in the travel
range between the service position and test/disconnected position!

Withdrawable parts with blocking magnet -RL2 may not be forcibly moved
during power failures. In such a case they are blocked in the service and
test positions. For deblocking, see section 7.5.4.
