Circuit Breaker Lubrication

Developing circuit breaker lubrication procedures

BY RICK YOUNGBLOOD, Doble Engineering Company

Circuit breaker analyzers are used to determine operating speeds and velocity. This information enables the tester to determine if a breaker is safe to place back into service. The data recorded by a test set allows technicians to measure the time it takes from the moment the trip or close button is activated until the breaker closes or opens fully. This is an electrical...
