The document provides specifications for circuit breaker design including:
1. It describes the layout of the auxiliary equipment compartment which separates the device compartment from the auxiliary equipment compartment to prevent harmful switching gases from penetrating.
2. It lists the cubicle widths and dimensions for different busbar positions at the top and rear of the circuit breaker.
3. It provides a table showing the maximum number of connectable cables as a function of breaker size and rated current, including the types of cable lugs that can be used.

Auxiliary equipment holder
Auxiliary equipment holder
The auxiliary equipment compartment accommodates an L-shaped device holder. Due to the L-shape, the device compartment is separated from the auxiliary equipment compartment so as to ensure that no harmful switching gases can penetrate into the area of the auxiliary equipment in the event of circuit breaker tripping. a
