5.1 General features
The VD4-HKK retrofit vacuum circuit breakers are for
indoor installation. For electrical performance figures,
please refer to the corresponding technical catalogue VD4
12kv..630A..2500A…44kA.
For special installation conditions please refer to ABB.
CAUTION !
The insertion and racking operations must always be carried
out with the circuit-breaker in the open position.
9.1 General
During normal service the circuit breakers are maintenance
free. The frequency and type of inspections basically depends
on the service conditions. Various factors must be taken into
account. Frequency of operations, interrupted current values,
relative power factor and the installation atmosphere.
2 Visual Inspection of poles(resin parts) 1 year or 5000 operations. The resin parts must be free of any accumulation of dust, dirt,
cracks, discharges or traces of surface discharge.
3 Visual and physical inspection of the opening 1 year, or 5000 operations. The elements must be free of any deformation. Screws, nuts,
mechanism and transmission. bolts etc., must be tight.
4 Visual inspection and lubrication of the isolating 1 year, or 5000 operations. The isolating contacts must be free of any deformation or
contacts. erosion. Lubricate the contact elements with grease type NYE
760G.
5 Measuring of the insulation resistance 1 year, or 5000 operations. See paragraph 8.1 inspection point 1.
6 Checking interlock operation. 1 year. The interlocks must operate correctly.
