Breaker Test Cabinet

Section 3. Description and Principles of Operation (cont.)

CAUTION: The green ground wire and test connector
must be connected to the breaker before the power is
turned on.

OPERATION OF TEST CABINET: (Circuit breaker must be
out of its cubicle)

1. Make sure both CONTROL POWER switches are in the

“OFF” position.

2. Connect the green ground wire to the breaker frame.

3. Plug the TEST CONNECTOR into the breaker

secondary disconnect. Use only the secondary

disconnect on the top left of the breaker (viewed

from the front of the breaker). Make sure the TEST
CONNECTOR is fully engaged into the breaker

secondary disconnect.

4. Turn the CLOSE & TRIP power switch to the “ON”

position. The trip power and close power indicating

lights should be illuminated. If any of the indicating

lights fail to illuminate, check the appropriate control
power fuse(s) located at top. If the fuses are not
blown, check the lamp in the indicating light
assembly.

5. Move the CHARGE MOTOR CONTROL POWER switch

to the “ON” position to charge the closing springs.
The charge control power indicating light should be

lit. The charge switch can remain in the “ON” position
during testing.

6. The circuit breaker close and trip circuits can now be

exercised by operating the CLOSE and OPEN

switches on the test cabinet. Operation of the
breaker auxiliary switch can be verified by observing
the RED and GREEN indicating lights on the test
cabinet. When breaker contains a command close

coil (ccc) the operations as follows. For closing rotate

and hold the close switch to the right. Push the

green button on the breaker. This button is located

between the Close & Trip buttons when a command

close coil is present.

7. Undervoltage coil 1 operation (when equipped) can

be verified by rotating UV1 switch to the left.

8. Shunt trip coil 2 operation (when equipped) can be

verified by rotating the TRIP2 / UV2 switch to the left.

9. Undervoltage coil 2 operation (when equipped) can

be verified by rotating switch from right position to

center. When the breaker is equipped with UV2, the
TRIP2 / UV2 switch must be turned to right position

before closing breaker or the breaker will go trip free.

10. When breaker testing is complete, turn the CONTROL

POWER and CHARGE switches to the “OFF” position.
Pull the TEST CONNECTOR out of the breaker
secondary disconnect. Remove the green ground

wire from the breaker frame.

11. Discharge the charging spring before attempting to

install the breaker into its cubicle.











Section 4. Installation

The test cabinet should be installed on the wall at a

location where maintenance and testing of the breaker

can be conveniently done.

Conduits may be installed for cables to supply control

power for testing. Two 1-inch diameter holes are located
on the left side to accommodate wiring. Refer to the
wiring diagram in Figure 2 for control power connections
and jumper positions.

Section 5. Maintenance

Aside from keeping the unit clean and dry, the most
important thing is to return the clamp to the cabinet area
when not connected to a breaker.
