furnished
These drawings show the following for each circuit
breaker compartment:
a. Circuit breaker Type (RL-800, RL-1600 etc.)
b. Trip "XFMR" or "SENSOR" rating
c. Static Trip Type (RMS-TS-TZ, RMS-TIG-TZ etc.)
d. Type of operator (Manual Operator-MO or Electrical
Operator-EO)
e. Circuit Breaker wiring information.
f. Special accessories (Undervoltage
2. On fused breakers, make sure trigger fuse linkage is reset.
Breaker will remain trip free

12. Trip units and accessory devices should receive a
thorough check before placing the circuit breaker in
service.
This check makes certain that adjustments
are proper and parts are not damaged. Refer to 'Static
Trip III Information and Instruction Guide', SG-3118.
13. Drawout circuit breakers are equipped with an interlock
to prevent movement of a closed circuit breaker into or
out of the CONNECT position.
i!lterlock operation should be checked before it is

Discharge Interlock', Page
interlocks.
14. After completing the installation inspection, check the
control wiring (i f any) and test the insulation.
15. Close the compartment door. Rack the circuit breaker into
the CONNECTED position.
