4.1.2 Mechanism variants
Four different operating mechanisms for three position discon-
nectors are available: manual mechanisms 1 and 2, and motor-
operated mechanisms 1 and 2. In the following sections you will
find a detailed description of operation of these mechanisms and
the corresponding circuit-breaker operating mechanisms.
See table 4.1.2.1 for assignment of the three position disconnec-
tor mechanisms.
The following applies to all switching operations:
With the exception of emergency manual operation,
switching operations may only be performed with
the low voltage compartment door closed.

4.1.2.1 Manual mechanism 1
Operation of manual mechanism 1 (figure 4.1.2.1.1) is purely
manual, with the exception of the motorized or manual stored
energy spring mechanism for the circuit-breaker. The three posi-

Turning of the selector lever (4) causes a slide to release the open-
ing (5 or 7) for the operating lever of the disconnector or earthing
switch. The selector lever can only be turned when the circuit-
breaker is open. The selector lever can only be turned for earthing

circuit-breaker
− Mechanical switch position indication is effected by a
graphical symbol (3) in the low voltage compartment door.
− In order to change the switching condition of the circuit-
breaker, press the mechanical OFF button (1) or the me-
chanical ON button (2).
