    Operation If the position-indicating lamp option has been specified, the red lamp will light. The circuit-switcher may also be electrically operated via remotely located control switches. No instructions are included for remote control because control schemes vary with the instal- lation and specific application of the switch.
  • Page 36: Decoupling

    Operation Manual closing of the interrupters cannot be performed. When control power returns, if the disconnect has not been opened manually, the motor-driven cam in the stored- energy mechanism will charge the opening and Access station closing springs, and the take-off shaft will turn to drive the interphase pipe assembly, opening the disconnect.
  • Page 37: Understanding The Gas-Pressure Indicator And Safety Relief Device

    Operation Understanding the Gas-Pressure Gas pressure indicator Indicator and Safety Relief Device Series 2000 Circuit-Switchers have sealed interrupters containing gas under pressure. Loss of gas pressure may result in improper interrupting action. Low gas pressure is signaled by a red target in the gas-pressure indicator at the upper terminal end of the interrupter.
