Auxiliary switches
Auxiliary switches are always actuated directly by the switch shaft via an
intermediate linkage. Their position always corresponds to that of the main
contacts. As standard, the circuit-breaker is equipped with two auxiliary
switches with 8 contact elements each.
The switching functions have been set in the factory according to the wiring diagram.
Anti-pumping relay
If an ON and OFF command is simultaneously and permanently present at
the circuit-breaker, the latter returns to its initial position after closing. It
remains in this initial position until the ON command is issued anew. This
prevents continuous closing and opening (pumping).

Servicing
IMPORTANT:
WARNING:
The safety provisions of Chapter 1.5 must be
observed.
WARNING:
The circuit-breaker must not be disassembled for
maintenance work (see Disclaimer of liability, section
1.3).
Safety provisions
1. On principle, the 5 safety rules applicable for electrical engineering must
be complied with before maintenance work on the circuit-breaker is
started:
Isolate switchgear from power supply
Prevent it from reclosing
Verify it for zero voltage
Earth and short-circuit it
Cover or bar off adjacent live components.
These rules apply for the upper and lower circuit-breaker terminals alike.
2. Switch off the auxiliary voltage for the circuit-breaker drive and secure it
against reclosing.
3. Release the energy-storing device by performing the corresponding
operating sequence on the circuit-breaker. ON - OFF - ON (see Chapter 7)
