the works for completeness of the equipment installed and
simultaneously sub jected to a routine test in accordance
with VDE 0670, part 1000 or IEC publication 60694, thus
verifying their correct structure and function.
Storage capacitor 26 is discharged by the connected con-

Notes:
- Avoid impact during handling.
- Do not subject to other damaging mechanical stresses.
- Lifting gear must not be attached to the breaker poles or
parts of the operating mechanism.
Use lifting bores 1.2 and lifting lugs, e.g. in figure 9/11 and
in the dimensional drawings.
4.4 Delivery
The duties of the consignee on receipt of the switching de-
vices at site include the following:
- Checking the delivery for completeness and freedom from
damage (e.g. moisture and its adverse effects).
- Any short quantities, defects or damage in transit:
