The trip unit measures current and protects the breaker by
providing instantaneous over current override protection.

The fascia has interface buttons and features for safety
locks.

The cassette consists of a mechanism which enables the
circuit breaker to be racked in and out, and houses the
interlocks.

The front panel on the cassette has three markings which
indicate whether the breaker is in the CONNECTED, TEST or
DISCONNECTED position.

Drawout Circuit Breaker Installation into the Cassette

1. Pull the lifting handles on both side walls of the circuit

breaker.

2. Attach the lifting bar between the two holes of the lifting
