Turn the Release Lever to the left, rotate the Crank one-quarter (¼) turn counterclockwise, It is recommended that the circuit breaker be and then release the Release Lever.
  • Page 10: Insulation Cleaning

    IB 6.2.7.7-3 designed special application, appropriate supplemental maintenance program Contact Wear and Contact Pressure has been developed. These maintenance (Contact Wipe) instructions only cover circuit breakers used under the standard service conditions. The amount of contact wear can be determined by measuring what is referred to as Contact Wipe (or At the selected maintenance period, the following overtravel).
  • Page 11: Contact Gap Check

    IB 6.2.7.7-3I on a used breaker with an interrupter nearing "Contact Gap". It is not expected that the contact replacement. As the breaker sees service, and sequence should exceed the 4 millisecond limit, the contacts start to erode, this value will increase. therefore, before attempting to readjust, verify that the test equipment and procedure are correct.
  • Page 12: Closing And Opening Times

    IB 6.2.7.7-3 Gap and Contact Wipe are inversely related; • Adjustments to correct times, if found to be increasing one decreases the other, and visa- versa. Also, note that no more than one-half (1/2) outside limits, are critical and the nearest turn should be required when readjusting for District Office should be contacted for contact sequence.
