Normal High-Voltage Door
Opening Procedure
To open the high-voltage door to gain access to the
contactor or motor terminals, the contactor must be in
the de-energized position. If the contactor is ener-
gized, the latch release on the isolation switch handle
cannot be pushed in, the handle cannot be operated,
and the door can' t be opened.
Depressing the Stop button de-energizes the
contactor. The latch release on the isolation switch
handle can then be depressed, which opens an electri-
cal interlock (control power interlock, or CPI) in the
secondary of the control power transformer. When the
latch release has been depressed, the isolation switch
handle may be moved to the full "OFF" position by
moving the handle with a rapid, positive motion to the
extreme down position (i.e. the handle latch release
pops back out). When the isolation switch handle is in
the "OFF" (down) position, the high-voltage door may
be opened by turning the two latch bolts.
