Chapter 2. Breaker Installation and Removal

5

NOTE: Placing the breaker directly on a

bench or floor will engage the spring discharge

mechanism. If maintenance or breaker opera-

tion is required with the breaker removed from

the compartment, the breaker must be raised

off the surface approximately 2 inches.


2.4 Testing the Breaker

The breaker can be operated without energizing the load

when it is in the

TEST

position. Using the Racking Handle

or Remote Racker, move the breaker from the

CONN

or

DISC

position to the

TEST

position, as shown on the draw-

out position indicator. The breaker can now be operated

manually or electrically without energizing the load.
Note: The lockout feature will only function if the circuit

breaker is racked into the CONN position.
