The maintenance plan for SACE Emax 2 circuit-breakers specifies the maintenance frequency for the
different types of site conditions.
We include the table indicating the frequency with which maintenance should be carried out and the
relative routine maintenance operations required.
Activity
Maintenance (see the
paragraph 4)
Lubrication of jaw-type
isolating contacts of
withdrawable circuit-
breaker (see the
paragraph 5)
Only for 900V and 1150V circuit-breakers Operating sequences/hour = 10.
(1)
Keep track of the number of racking in and out operations or make an estimate on the basis of
(2)
the average number of racking out operations to ensure that the jaw-type isolating contacts are
cleaned and lubricated correctly.
Compliance with the following rules is also recommended:
• Even circuit-breakers that operate infrequently or that remain closed or open for long periods of
time must be subjected to programmed maintenance.
• All the circuit-breakers provide information on the number of operations performed in the presence
of auxiliary power supply of the Trip Unit. With Ekip Dip trip units, the information can be obtained
with the aid of Ekip T&P and a PC on which the Ekip Connect software is installed. With Ekip Touch
trip units, the information is available at any time on the appropriate display. With Ekip Dip trip
units, installation of the mechanical operation counter is recommended (supplied on request).
• During the service, visually inspect the circuit-breaker from the outside to check for the presence
of dust, dirt or damage.
