Dimensional Requirements
Specific dimensional requirements are illustrated for fixed versions of the circuit breakers, detailing the use of insulating plates and clearances. These ensure proper mounting and safety.
AC Fixed Version Dimensions
For fixed versions at Ue ≥ 500 V, with supply from lower terminals, an insulating plate (max thickness 1mm) or code 1SDA112971R1(3p) / 1SDA112972R1(4p) is required. Dimension C must cover the full height of the front door/back panel. To avoid enclosure door insulation, Fd ≥ 156mm.
DC Installation Dimensions
For DC installations, specific clearances and insulating plates are shown for ≤500Vdc and >500Vdc configurations. Dimension C and D must be chosen to cover the full height of the front door/back panel. To avoid enclosure door insulation, Fd ≥ 156mm.
Wiring Diagrams
The document provides wiring diagrams for DC applications, illustrating connections for different voltage ratings and configurations (250V, 500V, 750V) and grounding states (Grounded, Ungrounded).

Cable Rack Assembling
Instructions and diagrams are provided for assembling cable racks, detailing the sequence of steps and component placement.
Crank Operation
Procedures for inserting, operating, and extracting the crank are illustrated. The crank is used to switch the circuit breaker between TEST, DISCONNECTED, and CONNECTED positions. The operation involves turning the crank clockwise until the indicator shows the desired position.
Testing Procedures
LED Indicators
The document details the function of LED indicators on the protection unit, specifying their color and the corresponding condition (e.g., LED ON for device active, LED blinking for alarms or parameter inconsistency).
Ekip Dip Trip Test
A step-by-step procedure for performing the Ekip Dip Trip Test is provided. This includes preparing the circuit breaker (open position), connecting the TT unit, checking the power LED, and then closing the breaker and pressing the trip test button for 2 seconds. The procedure must be followed before connecting the circuit breaker to the system, ensuring primary and auxiliary circuits are inactive.
Current Settings and Calculations
Examples are given for calculating current thresholds (I1, I2) and time delays (t1, t2) based on the nominal current (In) for different trip unit configurations (L, SI, LSI). These calculations are essential for setting up protective functions.
Trip Unit Compatibility
Information is provided regarding the compatibility of Ekip Touch and Hi-Touch trip units with XT5 rating plugs. Trip units with 500A and 630A rating plugs can be equipped with XT5 rating plugs from 250A to 630A, while those up to 400A can use XT5 rating plugs from 250A to 400A.
Dielectric Tests
Instructions related to dielectric tests are available via a separate document (1SDH002267A1001).
