DO NOT DISABLE REJECTION INTERLOCKS.
DOING SO AND USING A LOWER CAPACITY CIR-
CUIT BREAKER IN AN INCOMPATIBLE CASSETTE
COULD RESULT IN AN ELECTRICAL FAULT WHICH
COULD RESULT IN DEATH, BODILY INJURY
AND/OR EQUIPMENT DAMAGE.
The rejection interlocks are steel pins in the floor of the
circuit breaker cassette. As the circuit breaker is
pushed into the structure, the mating pins on the bottom
of the circuit breaker move past a set of corresponding
pins in the cassette, if the circuit breaker and cassette
are compatible. If the circuit breaker and the cassette
are mismatched, the rejection pins will block the inser-
tion of the circuit breaker into the cassette before the
levering-in mechanism is engaged.
Before attempting to push the circuit breaker into the
DISCONNECT position, compare the positioning of
rejection interlock pins in the cassette in keeping with
Table 2.2 and Figure 2-5 and the information supplied
on the circuit breaker's nameplate. Proceed if the circuit
breaker and cassette are compatible.

2-6.2 CIRCUIT BREAKER POSITIONING

Magnum DS, DSX and DSL drawout circuit breakers
have four normal positions:
• REMOVE (Withdrawn) (Figure 2-6)
• DISCONNECT (Figure 2-7)
• TEST (Figure 2-8)
• CONNECT (Figure 2-9)
The REMOVE position is a position outside the com-
partment on the cassette's drawout rails where the cir-
cuit breaker is not engaged with the levering mecha

CAUTION
From Table 2.2, make a
pin location comparison.
Stop nuts should be
torqued to 8-10 Ft.-Lb.

nism. The DISCONNECT, TEST, and CONNECT, posi-
tions are reached by means of the levering mechanism.
With the breaker solidly positioned on the cassette's
extension rails and the levering-in mechanism in the
DISCONNECT position, carefully and firmly push the
circuit breaker into the compartment as far as it will go.
The outer (recessed) portion of the circuit breaker face
plate should align with the GREEN target line (labelled
DISC) on the inside top left wall of the cassette (Figure
2-10).
