Examine the shipment for damage as soon after receipt as possible, preferably before
removal from the carrier's conveyance. Check the bill of lading to make sure all shipping
skids, crates, and containers listed are present.
If there is visible loss and/or damage:
1. Notify the delivering carrier immediately.
2. Ask for a carrier inspection.
3. Note the condition of shipment on all copies of the delivery receipt.
4. File a claim with the carrier.
If concealed damage is discovered:
1. Notify the delivering carrier within 15 days of receipt of shipment.
2. Ask for a carrier inspection.
3. File a claim with the carrier.
Also, notify S&C Electric Company in all instances of loss and damage.
An S&C catalog drawing is located in a water-resistant envelope attached to the wrapper
around one of the insulating support columns. Study this drawing carefully and check
the bill of material to verify all parts are available. The Model 2020 Series 2000 Circuit-
Switcher shipment should include the items shown in Figure 1 on page 10 and Figure 2
on page 11.
DO NOT mix components from different installations .
The Series 2000 Circuit-Switcher is completely factory-assembled and thoroughly
tested . To speed installation and maintain the proper adjustment of the circuit-switcher
and switch operator made in the factory, components belonging to a specific circuit-
switcher installation must not be intermixed with components belonging to a different
installation .
Each Series 2000 Circuit-Switcher is serially numbered . This serial number appears
on the circuit-switcher high-speed base, pole units, mounting pedestals, and the
operator .
Mixing parts from different circuit-switchers will result in significant damage to
the switch operator and misoperation of the circuit-switcher, which could cause
personal injury .
S&C maintains a historical record, by serial number, of every circuit-switcher
produced. This record lists information pertinent to each installation, such as application,
date of shipment, and any service performed by S&C factory service specialists. This
record is an invaluable reference for future maintenance, modifications, or replacements.
The shipment contains:
●
Three pole-unit assemblies (Each pole-unit contains one stationary support insulator,
one rotating insulating support column, and a blade and contact assembly.)
●
Three interrupters, mounted to the high-speed base for shipping
.
