INSPECTION/TEST RESULT
1. Inspect circuit breaker for mechanical damage.
2. Check alignment and movement of circuit breaker.
3. Check and ensure proper opening and closing of shutters.
4. Measure circuit breaker contact resistance ():
R-phase
Y-phase
B-phase
5. HV Pressure test with circuit breaker open:
Earth to R-phase
R-phase to Y- Y-phase to R- B-phase to Y-
Connection + Y-phase + B-

after HV test
(M)
7. Test operation of charging motor and record time to charge (sec).
8. Test and record closing and tripping time at rated auxiliary voltage (sec)
9. Check operation of position indicators.
10. Check operation of breaker location pins.
11. Check operation of cubicle carriage switches.
12. Check operation of circuit breaker auxiliary contacts (no volt).
13. Check that circuit breaker cannot be racked in or out when breaker is closed.
14. Test all isolation and circuit earthing.
15. Ensure breaker manual close properly guarded.
16. With circuit breaker in 'Test' position:
Check manual closing.
Check closing by operating the local breaker control switch.
Check that the circuit breaker trips for manual operation of all protection
relays and operation of local breaker control switch.
Check circuit breaker trips by operation of local mechanical push button.
Ensure circuit breaker cannot close if lockout relay has tripped.
17. With the circuit breaker in 'Service' position:
Check manual closing.
Check closing by operating the local breaker control switch.
Check that the circuit breaker trips for manual operation of all protection
relays and operation of local breaker control switch.
Check circuit breaker trips by operation of local mechanical push button.
Ensure circuit breaker cannot close if lockout relay has tripped.
