I. Foreword
This publication contains the information required
for installing the following medium voltage circuit
breakers and putting them into service: VD4/R -
VD4/L - VD4/R-SEC and VD4/L-SEC, hereinafter
called VD4.
Please read the manual carefully to ensure that the
product is used correctly.
Similarly to all the apparatus we manufacture, the
VD4 circuitbreakers are also designed for
different installation configurations.
However, these devices can be subjected to
further technicalconstruction modifications (at
the customer's request) so as to adapt them to
special installation requirements.
Consequently, the manual may not contain
instructions concerning special customized
configurations.

II. Environmental protection program
The VD4 circuit breakers are manufactured in
compliance with Standard ISO 14000
(Environmental management guidelines).
The manufacturing processes are implemented in
accordance with the environmental protection
Besides this manual, it is therefore always
necessary to consult the latest technical
documentation (electric circuit and wiring
diagrams, assembly and installation drawings, any
protection coordination studies, etc.), especially
regarding any variants requested in relation to the
standard configurations.
Only use original spare parts for maintenance
operations.
Please also consult the technical catalogue of the
circuitbreaker and the spare parts catalogue for
further details.
All the installation, putting into service,
running and maintenance operations must
be carried out by suitably qualified
personnel with in-depth knowledge of the
apparatus.
standards when it comes to reducing both energy
consumption and the production of waste. All this
is thanks to the environmental management
system applied in the medium voltage apparatus
manufacturing facility.
