The 64-pole plug for the external terminal, is suitable for crimp termination of control lines with a nominal cross-section of 1.5 mm2. 26 9229 0001 176 0G 2015-12-06 Description A further shunt release, transformer-operated release or undervoltage release can be installed as a 2nd release. 2nd shunt release (-Y2) 3AX1101 Fig. 43 3AE5 - 2nd shunt release (51.2) Fig. 44 3AE1 - 2nd shunt release (51.2) The second shunt release (-Y2) is installed whenever more than one shunt release is needed. In this version, the electrical "open" command is passed by means of a magnet armature to the "OPEN" latch by release of an energy storage mechanism, thus opening the vacuum circuit-breaker. This opening solenoid is not designed for continuous operation. Any necessary varistors and rectifiers are integrated in the release. Power consumption 9229 0001 176 0G 2015-12-06 10 W / VA 27 Description Transformer-operated release (-Y4), (-Y5) 3AX1102, (-Y6) 3AX1104 Fig. 45 3AE5 - transformer-operated release (51.3) Fig. 46 3AE1 - transformer-operated release (51.3) The transformer-operated releases (-Y4), (-Y5) or (-Y6) consist of an energy storage mechanism, an unlatching fixture and an electromagnetic system. If the tripping current is exceeded (90 % of the transformer-operated release's rated current), the energy storage mechanism is unlatched, thus initiating opening of the vacuum circuitbreaker module. For use of the transformer-operated release, matching transformers are also needed for matching, in addition to the main current transformers. Power consumption for 0.5 A and 1 A 6 VA at 90 % of the transformer-operated release's rated current and with open armature. Power consumption 28 10 W / VA 9229 0001 176 0G 2015-12-06 Description Undervoltage release (-Y7) 3AX1103 Note The undervoltage release (-Y7) may only be operated with the series supplied resistor (-R1). Note For switching operations (mechanical or electrical), the undervoltage release 3AX1103... must be connected to control voltage, as otherwise closing is not possible (see "Removing the transport securing device from the undervoltage release", page 57). The undervoltage release (-Y7) has an electromagnet system that is always live when the vacuum circuit-breaker is in the closed state. If the voltage drops below a certain value, the undervoltage release (-Y7) is unlatched, thus initiating opening of the vacuum circuit-breaker via the energy storage mechanism. Random tripping of the undervoltage release (-Y7) is generally performed by an NC contact in the tripping circuit, but can also be done with the aid of an NO contact by short-circuiting the solenoid coil. If this latter method is used, the solenoid coil's short-circuit current is limited by the built-in resistor. The undervoltage release (-Y7) can also be connected to voltage transformers. The undervoltage release (-Y7) automatically trips the vacuum circuit-breaker if the rated supply voltage drops to an inadmissible value. Any necessary varistors and rectifiers are integrated in the release.

To this end, the heater has to be connected to the supply voltage (see circuit diagram included with the delivery). WARNING Danger of burns! Touching the hot heater will cause burns. Do not touch the heater before it has cooled off. The surface temperature of theheater is approx. 180 C. Power consumption 30 50 W, rated voltage 230 V AC 9229 0001 176 0G 2015-12-06 Description Locking devices To lock vacuum circuit-breakers as a function of the switching position, the spring charge mechanisms of the vacuum circuit-breaker can be equipped with a locking device. This is also the case for vacuum circuit-breakers on switch gear trucks, in withdrawable sections or with disconnectors. Conditions The vacuum circuit-breaker must only be switched on in operating or disconnected position. The operating or disconnected position is the position of the vacuum circuitbreaker on the switchgear truck or withdrawable section in the switchgear. At the same time, the vacuum circuit-breaker may be moved on the switchgear truck or withdrawable section only when it is open. Positions of the vacuum circuit-breaker in the switchgear Disconnected position The isolating distance between the vacuum circuit-breaker contacts and the switchgear counter-contacts is attained fully. Operating position The circuit-breaker is inserted fully into the switchgear and the vacuum circuit-breaker contacts overlap completely with the switchgear counter-contacts. Mechanical locking device (optional) A sensing and actuation component (b) on the system side detects the operating position (CLOSED/OPEN) of the vacuum circuit-breaker. CLOSED switching position If the vacuum circuit-breaker is closed, actuation of the system's interrogation and actuation component (b) is prevented. A mechanical system in the switchgear truck or withdrawable section reliably blocks movements of the circuit-breaker on the switchgear truck or withdrawable section. OPEN switching position If the vacuum circuit-breaker is open, the sensing and actuation component (b) on the system side actuates, via the stroke (a), the vacuum circuit-breaker's mechanical locking device and reliably blocks closing of the vacuum circuit-breaker. 9229 0001 176 0G 2015-12-06 31 Description .

Turning the key to the right/left or horizontally/vertically locks the key-operated locking device. The key can be pulled out in the locked position. Note: The key-operated locking device protrudes 14 mm from the cover. Fig. 53 Key-operated locking device (59.3) Electrical closing lock-out (-F1) 3AX1415 (optional, only 3AE1)) Instead of or in addition to the mechanical closing lock, closing of the vacuum circuit-breaker can be prevented with the electrical closing lock-out (-F1). The electrical closing lock-out (-F1) enables operation of the vacuum circuit-breaker if auxiliary voltage is available and mechanically locks both manual closing and electrical closing if auxiliary voltage is not available (position switch -S5). Note: For mechanical or electrical circuits the electrical closing lock-out 3AX1415 must be connected to the control voltage, otherwise no activation is possible.

Test switching without supply voltage Charge the closing spring with the hand crank (see Fig. 121), then press the CLOSE pushbutton and, once closing has been performed, press the OPEN pushbutton. Test switching with supply voltage To perform test switching with the motor, switch on the supply voltage. The motor starts up immediately and charges the closing spring. Check the indicator for charge state of the closing spring (mechanically and electrically). Electrically check through auxiliary switch S1 and position switch in both end positions - operate the vacuum circuit-breaker to do so. Check functioning of the closing solenoid Y9 and all available shunt releases by operating them electrically. 9229 0001 176 0G 2015-12-06 67 Operation If an undervoltage release (Y7) 3AX1103 is present: has the locking screw of the striker been shifted from position A to B (see "Removing the transport securing device from the undervoltage release" on page 57)? If mechanical locking is available: check if correct function of mechanical locking is guaranteed as per IEC 62271-200. WARNING Do not commission the vacuum circuit-breaker if there are malfunctions. If the malfunctions or the damage cannot be remedied, contact a sales representative or Siemens Service and, if necessary, send back the vacuum circuit-breaker.

If all functions have been checked and are ok, switch on high-voltage while observing all of the safety regulations and operative requirements. Charging the closing spring WARNING Risk of injury if hand cranks other than the original hand crank are used. When the supply voltage is present, the motor immediately recharges the spring after a closing operation. If the hand crank does not have a slip coupling, the hand crank will also rotate. To avoid injuries caused by the motor starting suddenly, the vacuum circuitbreaker must be charged only using the original hand crank. If the supply voltage is applied, the closing spring is automatically charged by the motor. 68 9229 0001 176 0G 2015-12-06 Operation Hand crank If the supply voltage fails, the closing spring can be charged with a hand crank. * * To do this, fit the hand crank onto the hand crank coupling through the opening with the adapter pushed forward. Turn clockwise until the spring state indicator changes over: Discharged Fig. 121 3AE5 - Charging the closing spring with the hand crank Charged Fig. 122 3AE1 - Charging the closing spring with the hand crank The adapter of the hand crank is designed in such a way that the hand crank becomes uncoupled when the motor supply voltage returns. Closing Provided there is no lock-out due to a mechanical locking device, send the closing command via the CLOSE pushbutton or the corresponding command element until the vacuum circuit-breaker is closed, and shows and signals the CLOSED switching position. Change of the position indicator: OPEN CLOSE After closing and releasing the CLOSE pushbutton, if necessary, the closing spring is immediately automatically charged by the motor and the symbol for "Closing spring charged" becomes visible in the spring state indicator. Change of the spring state indicator: Charged 9229 0001 176 0G 2015-12-06 Discharged Charged 69 Operation Opening The opening spring is charged during the closing operation. To open, send the opening command via the OPEN pushbutton or the corresponding command element until the vacuum circuit-breaker is open, and shows and signals the OPEN switching position. Change of the switching position indicator after electrical opening: CLOSE OPEN The spring state indicator does not change. Discharging the closing spring To discharge the closing spring: * * Deactivate the supply voltage on the vacuum circuit-breaker, actuate the OPEN, CLOSE and OPEN pushbuttons manually one after the other. This ensures that the vacuum circuit-breaker is open and the closing spring is discharged. 70 9229 0001 176 0G 2015-12-06 Maintenance Maintenance Maintenance and servicing DANGER High voltage - danger to life! Touching live parts is fatal or causes serious physical injury.
