3-13 Door Interlock

The Door Interlock, shown in Figure 24, prevents the
casual opening of the enclosure door, particularly while

the switch is

ON

. The catalog number of the Door

Interlock is SPDIL. For installation instructions see GEH-

6276.

Operation

The Door Interlock prevents the opening of the enclosure
door unless the locking lever is disengaged. The lever can

be disengaged easily with the switch

OFF

or with somewhat

greater difficulty with the switch

ON

, as described below.

Opening Door with Switch Off

To open the enclosure door when the switch is

OFF

, pull

up on the padlock tab and slide the Door Interlock lever

counter-clockwise until it no longer obstructs the door.

When the door is reclosed, simply slide the lever back into

the locking position.

Figure 24. Door Interlock accessory installed on the switch.

Opening Door with Switch On

The Door Interlock can be defeated, to allow opening the
enclosure door with the switch

ON

, even though the

padlock tab cannot be lifted. Depress the interlock spring

with a screwdriver in the slot on the top of the locking

lever and push the lever counter-clockwise to disengage it

from the spring. Remove the screwdriver, then continue

rotating the locking lever until it clears the door.

3-14 Push Button Cover

The Push Button Cover, shown in Figure 25, prevents
accidental or unauthorized closing or opening of the

switch with the local push buttons. It consists of two

unbreakable, individually sealable Lexan® shields, one

over the

PUSH ON

button and one over the

PUSH OFF

button. The catalog number is SPPBCOVER. For

installation instructions see GEH-6282.

Operation

Close the cover and put a sealing wire or wire tie in the
slot. Each of the covers may be sealed independently.
