1. Safety Precautions
!
This equipment can be remote controlled and contains current-carrying parts and mechanical elements moving at high speed. The non compliance with these safety precautions may result in severe physical and property damages.
• Carefully read this manual before proceeding to any handling, operation or maintenance action. • The equipments described in this manual have been designed and tested to operate within their rated
values. Their use out of those values may result in maloperations which may cause severe physical and property damages.
• In the cubicles with withdrawable circuit breakers: -Never proceed to checking’s on the circuit breaker control (in the cubicles with circuit breakers)
when it is closed or when the locking springs are charged. The circuit breaker should be open and the locking springs should be discharged. (See DIVAC Instruction Manual, Tab I-A)
- Always leave the circuit breaker either on Service or Test Position, and never in an intermediate
position in the cubicle. - Do not use the circuit breaker as the only way to break the circuit in service. Place it also on test
position. - Withdraw the circuit breaker from the cubicle before proceeding to any maintenance action. • The good performance and the life time of the circuit breaker depend on its correct application,
installation and maintenance. Check that these operations are carried out by qualified personnel only, duly aware of precautions and instructions contained in this manual and acquainted with installation and maintenance of Medium Voltage nets and equipments.
• The circuit breakers are equipped with several security interlocks allowing a simple and safe use. Do
not force them. • This manual should be easy to access by everyone connected to installation, operation and
maintenance of the equipment.

3.4 - Storage While the cubicles are not mounted, we recommend its sotrage in a well ventilated place, protected from dust and water. Storage temperature : -5 to 40 ºC, depending on the hygrometric conditions. -5 ºC to hygrometry ≤ 30% R.H.(Relative Humidity) +40 ºC to hygrometry ≤ 70%R.H. If these limits cannot be guaranteed in the storage place. it is necessary to assure that the equipment is well conditionned before delivery . It must be avoided to keep the equipment in places with high and fast temperature variations. It must be checked the completely absence of aggressive vapours like, for exemple, the sulphur anhydride (SO2). Recommendations depending on the storage type :
• Plastic packing : to remove the plastic in order to avoid condensation phenomena.
• Thermally welded tissu packing with dehumidifier sacs: the equipment must be stored within its
original packing which must not be cutted in any case.
3.5 - Installation For a confortable exploitation the cubicles need:
- 1200 mm in the front corridor, for handling the circuit breaker truck.
- 150 to 100 mm at the rear for ventilation purpose.
- 80 to 100 mm between the switchboard ends and the wall.
Cubicles installation The self supported frame, the cables connecting high and the circuit breakers position at the middle
of the cubicle reduce the implantation exigences:
- to a simple floor plate levelness.
- to a floor fastenning, after the installation of all cubicles .

3.6 - Connections General information and connection instructions In the busbar, earthing circuit and cables bars connection, it is necessary to respect the assembling sense of all parts and to fasten the screws with the right couple. To use the screws delivered within the accessories pack or screws with the same reference. Contact surface preparation instructions When one connect copper with copper or tinned alluminium with tinned alluminium, there is not necessary any surface preparation. Nevertheless, when one connect alluminium with copper, it is necessary to polish those surfaces with a metallic brush and to lubrificate them with "contactal" or with neutarl vaseline (see references in page 42). 3.6.1 - Busbar connections After removing the internal arc plate for accessing to the busbar (M6 screws, 10 spanner), make the busbar connections between cubicles as indicated in the following pages.. The bars/phase quantity depends on the busbar rated current (see connections table in the following pages). Components references for the busbar connection between cubicles In order to assemble the different components in the correct position, use the Table 1.

4 - SETTING TO WORK
4.1- General
The Normacel cubicles are mechanically and electrically inspected before despatch.
If the equipment should be stored in a damp spot, it is recommended to warm up the premises or to feed the cubicles heating elements, if supplied, during 24 hours before setting to work. In any case it is necessary to carry out a certain number of checking procedures before any operation:
- Checking of the withdrawable circuit-breaker, in particular the contact fingers; - The ease of the plugging/unplugging operations; - Operation of the mechanical interlocks; - Before connecting the cables, measure the insulation resistance of the switchboard
with a megaohmimeter (Disconnect any existing external circuits). - Proper execution of the cable connections; - Absence of any strange object inside the cubicles.
Do not try under any circumstance to operate a lever or link inside the control mechanism, if either the dosing spring is armed, either the circuit-breaker is closed (opening spring armed) or if the LV feeding circuits are not interrupted (AC or DC). For greater safety, remove the fuses from the recharging motor of the control mechanism.
If necessary perform a triple manual operation, opening - closing - opening, to disarm the opening and closing springs of the control mechanism.
For any intervention on the circuit-breaker or its control mechanism, look it up in the respective manual.
32
4.2 - Voltage feeding
For the first voltage feeding of the switchboard proceed as following description: - Make sure all the circuit-breakers are open and in the sectioning position, the earthing
switches are open and the cable access panels are fastened.
First incoming cubicle:
- Feed the cables. Check if the neon lamps from the voltage indicator case lighten; - Feed the busbar by plugging, locking and closing the circuit-breaker (see "Operation"
chapter).
Second incoming cubicle:
- Feed the cables. Check if the neon lamps from the voltage indicator case lighten; - Check if the incoming supplies are in phase.
To check the good performance of the phase agreement case, connect the case between the two phases of the first incoming: The lamp should lighten.
- Insert the phase agreement case in the upper socket (L1) of the voltage indicator case of one of the cubicles;
- Insert the male plug of the phase agreement case's wire in the upper socket (L1) of the voltage indicator case of the other cubicle. If there is a phase agreement the neon lamp of the phase agreement case does not lighten;
- Repeat the same operations for phases L2 and L3.

5.2- Operation of the circuit-breaker compartment
The Circuit-breaker has 2 working positions:
- Plugged in (Service Position) - Withdrawn (Test Position)
5.2.1 Operation of the circuit-breaker at the cubicle
5.2.1.1 Placing the movable part in the service position
The circuit-breaker movable part can be leaded to the service position both with the circuit-breaker compartment door closed and opened, see photographs 35 and 36. To insert the circuit-breaker (with the door open), use the lever referred in the “Accessories” section, inserting the tool in the square head of the worm screw and while pressing, rotate the tool clockwise. See Fig 35.
Note: Placing the circuit-breaker in the service position with the door closed is identical to the open door situation, having now to insert the lever through the door hole. See Fig 36.
34
Fig 35 - Circuit-breaker movable part with the compartment door opened
Fig 36 - Circuit-breaker movable part with
the compartment door closed
The signal that the circuit-breaker arrived its inserted position is signalized by the "click" that sounds in the clutch when the lever turns in false. INTERLOCKINGS The circuit-breaker can not be leaded to the service position if:
a) The earthing switch is closed. Otherwise, when the circuit-breaker starts its movement, there is a interlock that acts on the clutch, preventing the circuit-breaker insertion;
b) The LV plug is not pulled in. The associated interlock provokes the clutch actuation, preventing thus the circuit-breaker insertion,
c) It's closed. When trying to insert it closed, an interlock provokes its tripping, just after the start of the movement;
Operating sequence to place the circuit-breaker in the service, position
1º- Assure that the earthing switch is open; 2º- Assure that the LV plug is pulled in. See Fig 38
To pull in the LV plug, push the interlocking piece and pull in the plug. After pulled in rotate the plug fixation lever and let the interlocking piece return to the initial position;
3º- Assure that the circuit-breaker is opened; 4°- Insert the circuit-breaker.
35
5.2.1.2 Placing the movable part in the test position
To place the circuit-breaker in the test position makes use of the same lever used to place it in the service position. The rotation direction is for the left (the reverse of the insertion). As in placing in service, the signal that the circuit-breaker arrived its test position is signalized by the "click" that sounds in the clutch when the lever turns in false. To remove de circuit-breaker, there must be previously the care of opening it. Otherwise the circuit-breaker will trip before the start of the withdrawal movement.
5.2.2 - Operating the circuit-breaker out of the cubicle
5.2.2.1 - Placing the circuit-breaker inside the cubicle To place the circuit-breaker inside the cubicle, use the transport carriage referred in the
«Accessories» section. Operating sequence for the circuit-breaker insertion in the cubicle
- After placing the circuit-breaker upwards the transport carriage, move it up to the circuit-breaker compartment,
- Open the circuit-breaker compartment door - See Fig 37; - Connect the transport carriage to the cubicle. Tighten the latches (located at the side
handles) and make them fit in the cubicle spangles. In case the latches do not easily fit or the circuit-breaker is over or under the circuit-breaker compartment level, the transport carriage levelers must be rotated - See Fig 42 e 64;
- Uncouple the circuit-breaker transport carriage. Move the circuit-breaker inside the cubicle and couple the circuit-breaker latches in the cubicle - See Fig 40 and 41;
- Uncouple the transport carriage of the cubicle tightening the appropriated latches.

6 - MAINTENANCE
For all instructions referring to maintenance of circuit-breaker or control mechanism , report to correspondent instructions manuals.
6.1 - Cleaning of the circuit-breaker chambers
- It is advisable to clean the outside of the circuit-breaker chambers when the switchgear truck is withdrawn;
- Clean the dust with a dry cloth or slightly soaked in a degreasing agent ( trichloretane, for example) in case of being much greasy;
- The cleaning frequency must be deternined according to the atmospheric pollution of the environment which may considerably from one place to another;
- In case the circuit-breaker chambers are much dirty then it is advisable to verify the other circuit-breakers and their cleaning if dirty;
6.2 - Changing the transformation ratio of the Current Tranformers
The changing of the CT’s ratio can be done in two different ways , depending on type transformers:
- Primary serial/parallel connection . Must access the cable compartment.
- By secondary tapping. Changing must be done in the low voltage compartment .

6.3 - Voltage Transformers fuse replacement
See § 5.3.1.3 -Fuses changing
6.4 - Cleaning and lubrication
- Electrical contacts:
The sectioning contacts are prepared in the factoty . In normal operating conditions they do not need to be lubricated again. In case of severe operating conditions ( corrosive atmosphere , dust , frequent plugging and unplugging , etc.) we advise that the condition of the parts should be checked once a year , cleaned and lubricated if necessary.
For that purpose:
• Degrease completely using a solvent of the tetrachloretane type (under no circunstance should a detergente be used);
• Lubrify with a thin layer of neutral vaseline.
To avoid over-lubrication:
• Lubrify the plug-in contacts but not the contact fingers;
• Clean the excess of vaseline with a dry cloth.
- Articulated mechanical parts lubrication.
