GE Industrial Solutions Remote Racking Operator - Low Voltage WavePro and EntelliGuard Circuit Breakers - Manual (Page 2)

Section 1. Introduction
The remote racking operator allows the user to
move a drawout circuit breaker between the
connect and disconnect positions via an electric
racking motor and gearbox attached to the front
of the breaker. The remote racking operator
requires 115Vac, 50/60Hz control power. A
control box connected to the operator with a thirty-foot cable permits control from a remote
location.
The remote racking operator is portable and is
designed for attachment to the WavePro &
Entellisys Low Voltage Power Circuit Breaker in
AKD-10 & Entellisys Switchgear, Powerbreak
Switchboards, and OEM Substructures.
Section 2. Receiving, Handling and Storage
2-1 Receiving and Handling
Each Remote Racking device is carefully inspected
and packed for shipment. Immediately upon receipt
of the device an examination should be made for
any damage sustained in transit. If injury or rough
handling is evident, a damage claim should be filed
immediately with the transportation company, and
the nearest General Electric Sales Office should be
notified.
The device should be removed from the shipping
box with sufficient care so that no damage will
result from rough handling. “Loose parts”
associated with the apparatus may be included in the
crate. Care should be taken to make certain that
these parts are not overlooked.
2-2 Storage
The remote racking operator should be protected
against condensation, preferably by storing it in a
warm, dry environment at moderate temperatures
such as 40 degrees F to 100 degrees F. The storage
area should be clean and contain no corrosive
gasses.
If the device is stored for any length of time, it
should be inspected prior to use to insure its proper
mechanical and electrical working condition.
