■HAZARD OF BODILY INJURY OR EQUIPMENT DAMAGE
1. Only qualified electrical workers with training and experience on high voltage circuits should
perform work described in this set of instructions. These workers must understand the hazards
involved in working with or near high voltage equipment. Such work should be performed only after
reading this complete set of instructions.
2. The successful operation of Susol ACBs depends upon proper handling, installation, operation, and
maintenance. Neglecting fundamental installation and maintenance requirements may lead to
personal injury as well as damage to electrical equipment or other property.
3. Susol ACBs have features designed to prevent unsafe operation, but it is not possible to eliminate
every hazard with these features. Therefore, the person using this device is responsible for
recognizing the potential hazards, for wearing protective safety equipment, and for taking adequate
safety precautions.
4. Do not make any adjustment to the equipment or operate the system with safety features removed.
Contact your local LSIS representative for additional instructions if the Susol ACB does not function
as described in this manual.
5. Before performing visual inspections, tests, or maintenance on this device, disconnect all sources of
electric power. Assume that all circuits are live until they have been completely de-energized, tested,
grounded, and connected. Pay particular attention to the design of the power system. Consider all
sources of power, including the possibility of back feeding.
6. Before replacing covers or closing doors, carefully inspect the bus work area for tools and objects left
inside the equipment. Use care while removing or installing panels so that they do not extend into
energized bus.
7. Before making any electrical connection, take every precaution to see that all connections are de-
energized and grounded.
8. Introducing foreign objects into this equipment can cause a short circuit which can result in severe
damage, personal injury, or death. Short circuits can release large amounts of energy due to a rapid
expansion of super-heated, ionized gases. Products of this instantaneous expansion can quickly
engulf and burn personnel before preventive action can be taken. The short circuit source can cause
additional injuries by propelling personnel or objects several feet from the equipment. Some foreign
objects that can cause short circuits are tools, test leads and instruments not designed for high
voltage circuits, wire, and other conducting or semi conducting materials. Workers must also be
careful to keep clothing and body parts out of the equipment. Failure to observe these precautions
could result in severe personal injury, death, or equipment

■Receiving
A visual inspection –inside and out –should be performed immediately upon receipt of the ACB and
before removing it from the truck. Shipping papers should be checked to ensure all boxes or other
accompanying pieces have been received. If any damage or shortages are evident, a claim should be
filed at once with the carrier, and the nearest LSIS sales office. Claims for shortages or other errors must
be made in writing to LSIS within 30days after receipt of ACB. Failure to do so constitutes unqualified
acceptance and a waiver of all such claims by the purchaser.
■Handling
Removable lifting plates are provided on the top of the Susol ACB structure for insertion of hooks to lift the
complete structure. This is the only recommended method of moving the Susol ACB structure. Extreme
care should be used not to damage or deform the unit if other moving methods are employed.
■Storage
If it is necessary to store the equipment before installation, keep it in a clean, dry location with ample air
circulation and heat to prevent condensation. Like all electrical apparatus, these units contain insulation
that must be protected against dirt and moisture. Outdoor units may be stored outside only if roof caps
are installed, space heaters energized and any openings are enclosed.
■Lifting Instructions
1. Do not pass cables or ropes through support holes.
2. Always use load rated shackles or safety hooks in support holes.
3. Rig so that legs of sling are no less than 45 degrees from horizontal.

■ACB prevents a fire, a property damage, the breakage of an electrical equipment on load side by
protecting a circuit from the fault currents.
1. Circuit Closing
The closing operation of mechanism applies the current to the load. When energized, some loads makes
inrush current much greater than rated current (In) (e.g. Motor takes in 7~8times of In for a few seconds).
To prevent these over current which causes the dangerous phenomena for contacts (Erosion by arcs),
closing operation should be prompt. If a circuit breaker is in accordance with all standard cases, it should
be able to endure 15~20 times of the rated current and be opened promptly for the faults occurred during
closing operation or after it has closed.
2. Current Conducting
A circuit breaker must not be exceeding an acceptable temperature rise under normal current conducting
and there must be safe current conducting within specified breaking time under over current.
Furthermore, if a circuit breaker is of the discriminated type, it must has the structure which can
withstand
the high electrodynamics to accept the short-circuit current while a circuit breaker in downstream is
operating to break it.
3. Circuit Opening, Current Breaking
1) Current can be broken manually or remotely by voluntary operation on mechanism.
2) A circuit breaker opens a circuit automatically under condition of current which may has any values at
this time by an auxiliary trip unit (Under voltage, Ground fault, etc.)
3) A circuit breaker opens a circuit automatically against the over current because it is operated by OCR
(the trip unit) even if it is in the closed position.
4. Isolation
When a circuit breaker is open, a certain isolation level is required between charging and non-charging
parts. The Isolation Level is decided by following tests.
1) A maximum leakage current test under rated using voltage (Max. Ue)
2) An impulse voltage
■There are following breaking principles regarding over current.
1. Instantaneous trip
When short-circuit current flows in, ACB trips instantly to minimize side effect due to the accident on
load side. It is called instantaneous trip.
2. Time delay breaking
When abnormal current flows in such as inrush current of transformer or condenser, and starting current
of motor, ACB keeps the conducting condition for a regular time and break the current if it is
continuously
remained. In case of short-circuit, ACB minimizes the damage from accident by keeping the circuit for
the time previously set concerning the operating time of branch breakers under selective discrimination.
However, it breaks the circuit after the delayed time in case abnormal current continuously flows in due
to the breaking failure of branch breakers. It is called as Time delayed breaking.
3. Overload trip
If the current which exceeds the rated current flows in continuously, the cable is getting hotter
and it causes the big fire. Therefore, ACB breaks the current before the temperature of cable
reaches the dangerous level. It is called overload trip.
4. Ground-fault trip
Ground fault defines as current flows into the ground from circuit or charging part of load due to
breakdown. If ground fault current flows, it is inducted to other cables nearby owing to electronic
induction, voltage level is risen and it finally cause severe effects or damage on other device.
Furthermore, in case personnel hands are touched, it may result in electrical shock. Ground fault
breaking is to prevent any possible accident occurred from ground fault.
