Check Before Installing - GE EntelliGuard AKR30S-800A Installation Manual

1. Store the circuit breakers in a clean, dry location in an upright position.
2. Make sure that the breakers are properly supported to prevent bending of the studs or damage to
any of the breaker parts. Do not remove any protective grease until the assemblies are ready to be
installed. A covering of draft or other non-absorbent paper prevents dust from settling on the breakers.
3. If breakers are not to be placed in service at once, remove them from their shipping cartons and
thoroughly inspect them.
4. If everything is in satisfactory condition, replace the breakers in their shipping cartons for storage. If it is
necessary to store the equipment for any length of time, use the following precautions to prevent
corrosion or deterioration:
•
Uncrate the equipment and check thoroughly for damage.
•
Store in a clean, dry, rodent-free location with moderate temperature and provide protective
coverings to prevent dirt, water, or other foreign substances from entering the breaker.
•
If dampness or condensation is encountered in the storage location, heaters can be used to prevent
moisture damage.
Use Lifting Truck
1. Use a lifting truck to lift and mount the assembly to avoid personal injury and damaging
the breaker.
2. Contact the nearest sales office for availability of a hoisting device.

Check Before Installing

• Ensure only qualified personnel install, operate, service, and maintain all electrical
equipment.
These breakers are supported on a rollout track in the same manner as the AKR breakers. Racking cams on
both sides of the breaker frame engage the drawout mechanism pins fastened to both sides of the
compartment.
1. Check to see that the breaker or breakers match their respective compartments. Look on the breaker
summary sheet, the front view drawings, breaker nameplate, and on the identification card on the
breaker shipping carton.
