installation instructions

marking

For the safety of personnel and to

avoid damaging the equipment,
the marking of all keys and
keylocks is mandatory.
H carry out marking in such a way
that it is visible during operation.
H mark using the letters
corresponding to the typical
diagrams, together with indices if
necessary. (1,2, 3, etc.)

servicing conditions
CAUTION
If low voltage devices are present
on the cubicle concerned (auxiliary
switches, motor mechanism, etc.),
always cut the low voltage power
before servicing.

For all types of locking systems,

except for C4, C4C and C4D:
put the switchgear in open
position, operating mechanism
discharged.
no switching with front plate
removed.

access to cable
compartment

For type C4, C4C and C4D locking

systems:
close the earthing switch.
no switching with front plate
removed.

Note: the front panel can only be

removed with the earthing switch
closed.

For types C4, C4C and C4D only.

Remove the front panel.

7896785EN revision : 01

access to the operating

mechanism

Unscrew and remove the low

voltage front plate. (2 screws HM6)

removing the
multifunction plate

Unscrew and remove the

operating mechanism front plate.
(3 screws HM6)

Note: the multifunction plate does

not have to be removed for the
installation of open position locks.

Unscrew the multifunction plate.

(3 screws HM5)
Pull the multifunction plate out
slightly together with the lockout
bar that covers the lever insertion
holes.
