Figure 3-5: Circuit Breaker Primary/Secondary Cluster
Tubular fixed primary disconnect contacts are recessed inside
the insulated primary bushings (spouts), which are mounted on
the back plane of the circuit breaker compartment (Figure 3-4).
The circuit breaker should always be OPEN when it is moved into
or out of the CONNECTED position.
The primary finger clusters on the circuit breaker will
engage these contacts when the circuit breaker is racked into
the CONNECTED position.
Fixed Primary Disconnect Contacts
There are two tools available to rack-in and rack-out the
circuit breakers.
The standard is the manual racking device (Figure 3-2) which
allows the operator to manually engage the circuit breaker
mechanism to change it’s position.
The optional remote racking device (Figure 3-3) allows the
operator to engage the circuit breaker mechanism to change
it's position while remaining outside the arc-flash boundary.
Although the circuit breaker compartment door may
be opened in any position, it is recommended that the
door be opened only when the circuit breaker is in the
DISCONNECTED/TEST position.
