Storage

The breaker should be placed in service immediately in its

permanent location. However, if it must be stored for an

indefinite period, it should be carefully protected against

condensation, preferably by storage in a warm dry room.
The breaker should be stored in a clean location, free

from corrosive gases or fumes. In particular, protect the

breaker from moisture and cement dust, as that combina-

tion may be corrosive.
If the breaker is stored for any length of time, it should be

inspected periodically to ensure good mechanical condi-

tion.

1.3 Preparation for Installation

Check that the primary disconnect fingers are smooth and

free of nicks and burrs. If they are dry, apply a thin coat of

GE Lubricant D6A15A1 (MobilGrease 28, catalog number

193A1751P1) to the contact surfaces.
