HAZARDOUS VOLTAGE CONDITIONS CAN CAUSE 

DEATH OR SEVERE PERSONAL INJURY. MAINTAIN 

AGE SPACINGS AT TERMINATIONS.

ORIGINAL ELECTRICAL CLEARANCE AND CREEP-

Connect the control wires and power wires to their 

appropriate locations on the male plug of the terminal

block, see Figure 2-6. Control power is necessary if 

IMPACC communication is required.

Install an appropriate rating plug, see Table 

2.1.

2-10.

Plug in the hand held Digitrip OPTIMIZER into the 

programming port and set the INCOM address. Then 

set the various trip unit current settings using the OPTI-

MIZER, or use the Breaker Interface Module when 

INCOM is available.  If IMPACC Series software is 

part of the system, this too can be used to set the trip

unit settings.  Refer to the user manuals for details.

MANUAL OPERATION 

Manual operation of the circuit breaker is controlled by 

the circuit breaker handle and the PUSH-TO-TRIP but-

ton in the trip unit. The circuit breaker handle has three

positions, two of which are shown on the cover with 

raised lettering to indicate ON and OFF. On the handle,

ON, OFF, and trip are also shown by a color-coded strip 

for each circuit breaker handle position: red for ON, 

white for tripped, and green for OFF (see Figure 

3-1).

Circuit Breaker Reset 

After a trip operation, the circuit breaker is reset by mov-

ing the handle to the Reset (extreme OFF) position. It is

not necessary to press the reset button before resetting 

the breaker. The reset button affects only the cause of 

trip indicator 

and trip information in the trip’s

memory. It does not affect the operation of the circuit

breaker itself. 

No circuit breaker should be

until the

cause

of trip is known and the situation rectified. 

PUSH-TO-TRIP Button 

The PUSH-TO-TRIP button operates the circuit breaker 

tripping function and may be used to periodically exer-

cise the operating mechanism. The button is designed

to be operated by a small screwdriver.

INSPECTION AND FIELD TESTING 

Series C molded case circuit breakers are designed to

provide years of almost maintenance-free operation. The 

following procedure describes how to do a limited

amount of field inspection and testing of a circuit breaker. 

Inspection

Circuit breakers in service should be inspected
