Door Interlock Assembly

When properly installed the door interlock assembly (see Figure 2.13),

used in conjunction with the isolation switch, is designed to provide the

following interlocking features:

• When the isolation switch handle is in the ON position, a pin on the

handle overlaps the Z-clip to prevent the door from being opened.

• When the door is closed and the isolation switch handle is in the ON

position, a cover catch inside the door will be held in place by the

interlock defeater lever and provide another means for holding the door

closed while the unit is energized.

The door interlock assembly must be installed for the

isolation switch handle to restrict access to the medium

voltage cell while the unit is energized. The isolation

switch handle alone will not provide safety interlocking.

If the door interlock assembly is not installed, the OEM

assumes the responsibility for providing a means to

isolate the medium voltage power cell while the unit is

energized. Failure to install a medium voltage power cell

isolation means can expose personnel to medium voltage

resulting in severe burns, injury or death.
