Ensure only qualified personnel install, operate, service, and maintain all electrical
equipment.
After the existing breaker is removed, the compartment modified and secondary wiring
verified, the Retrofill breaker can now be installed in the AKD-8 switchgear, OEM switchgear
or switchboard.
Note : the preferred lifting method is always to use proper ABB lifting (spreader) bar. It will
provide the best chance of installing breakers, especially into the upper compartments,
without damaging the breakers. The WavePro small frame lifting bar had a 3rd lifting hook
at the front and it will not
fit on the retrofill breaker. Any time eye bolts (small frame
breakers) or large diameter holes (large Frame breakers) and generic lifting chains are used,
caution must be used to keep the chains to no less than 45 degree angle from horizontal to
avoid damaging the breaker side frames)
