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.
