Store Circuit Breaker - GE EntelliGuard R7 Installation Manual

Store Circuit Breaker

If you decide not to install the Retrofill breaker until a later time, then you can store it away for installing
it later.
1. Store the circuit breakers in a clean, dry location in an upright position.
2. Make sure that the breakers are properly supported to prevent bending of the studs or damage to
any of the breaker parts. Do not remove any protective grease until the assemblies are ready to be
installed. Cover to prevent dust from settling on the breakers.
3. If breakers are not to be placed in service at once, remove them from their shipping cartons and
thoroughly inspect them.
4. If everything is in satisfactory condition, replace the breakers in their shipping cartons for storage. If it is
necessary to store the equipment for any length of time, use the following precautions to prevent
corrosion or deterioration:
•
Uncrate the equipment and check thoroughly for damage.
•
Store in a clean, dry, rodent-free location with moderate temperature and provide protective
coverings to prevent dirt, water, or other foreign substances from entering the breaker.
•
If dampness or condensation is encountered in the storage location, heaters can be used to prevent
moisture damage.
