Page 6 INTRODUCTION It is the intent of this manual to provide a guide for safely installing, operating and maintaining Toshiba vacuum circuit breakers. This manual consists of a section of general safety instructions and is marked throughout with warning symbols.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION Page 7 The Toshiba HV6AS vacuum circuit breakers described in this manual are suitable for use on systems of 4.8kV and 7.2kV voltage classes which require interrupting ratings of 16kA and 14kA respectively and a continuous current rating of 630A.
Page 8 GENERAL DESCRIPTION SAFETY DEVICES Safety interlocks and guards are provided as an integral part of the equipment design. These devices are provided for safety to the operator. Never defeat, modify or bypass any safety devices, interlocks or operating mechanism.
RECEIVING, INSPECTION AND HANDLING Page 9 RECEIVING AND UNPACKING The circuit breaker units are subjected to factory production testing prior to being packed and shipped. ACCEPTANCE INSPECTION Confirm that the circuit breaker unit is complete, correct as specified and undamaged from shipment and handling.
Page 10 RECEIVING, INSPECTION AND HANDLING HANDLING AND MOVING When handling and moving the circuit breaker, the techniques shown in this section may be used. Care and caution should be used when handling the circuit breaker units to avoid damage to the equipment and personal injury.
INSTALLATION Page 11 Do not install this equipment in areas where unusual service conditions exist. Using this equipment in other than usual service conditions can result in equipment failure. Toshiba HV6AS circuit breakers are intended for use in usual service conditions as defined in IEEE C37.
Page 12 INSTALLATION MOUNTING THE CIRCUIT BREAKER TO A PANEL The circuit breakers are designed to mount to a panel made from 11 ga. (.12 in.) thick steel. If the breaker must be mounted to a panel of different thickness, contact Toshiba. Panel cutout dimensions for the circuit breakers are given in Fig.

Page 14 INSTALLATION MOUNTING DIRECTLY TO A SHELF The shelf should be flat and level within ± 0.5 mm ( ± 0.02 in.). If there are any noticeable gaps between the breaker and the shelf, fill them in using flat washers as spacers. Check to make sure the breaker On-Off indicator shows OFF (green), then mount it by following the steps below: 1.
INSTALLATION Page 15 MAIN CIRCUIT CABLE CONNECTIONS Cables which connect to the circuit breaker should be routed to avoid interference with sharp edges and moving parts.
Page 16 INSTALLATION GROUND CONNECTIONS The circuit breaker must be grounded in accordance with the requirements of the National Electrical Code, Article 250 or applicable local standards. Proper grounding connections must be made to the circuit breaker before incoming power is applied.
INSTALLATION Page 17 CONTROL CIRCUIT CONNECTIONS Control circuit wiring is connected to the terminal block on the top of the operating mechanism (Fig . 20 ). Connect control wires in accordance with the appropriate wiring diagram shown in Fig. 28 through Fig .
Page 18 PRE-ENERGIZATION CHECK GENERAL BEFORE ENERGIZING THE CIRCUIT BREAKER for the first time, follow the procedure below to verify that the equipment is properly installed and functional. Hazardous Voltage. Turn off and lock out all primary and control circuit power sources prior to performing this pre-energization check.
OPERATION Page 19 MANUAL OPERATION Powerful springs. Do not place your hands or any part of your body inside the circuit breaker while the indicators show CHARGED (yellow) or ON (red). To avoid damaging the mechanism, do not close the circuit breaker when the On-Off Indicator shows ON (red).
Page 20 OPERATION MANUAL CLOSING (Manual Spring-Operated U and L Types): 1. Check to make sure that the On-Off indicator shows OFF (green). 2. Turn the closing handle clockwise. The breaker will close (On-Off indicator changes to ON) after the handle is turned approximately 75 ° .

Page 24 OPERATION UNDERVOLTAGE TRIP All HV6AS fixed mounted circuit breakers are furnished with an undervoltage trip device. The undervoltage trip device operates to trip the circuit breaker OFF unless 120VAC control power is present at the terminals of relay UV.
MAINTENANCE Page 25 MAINTENANCE PROGRAM In order to ensure continued reliable and safe operation of the equipment, a program of periodic maintenance must be established. Operating and environmental conditions will usually dictate the frequency of inspection required.
Page 26 MAINTENANCE RECOMMENDED INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE TYPES NOTE: Refer to the SAFETY section of this manual for important information. A. Acceptance Inspection This inspection confirms that the circuit breaker unit is complete, correct as specified, and undamaged from shipment.
MAINTENANCE Page 27 Table 2 Check Points for Periodic Inspection Check Point Check Item Check Method Criteria Disposition Operating Mechanism Loose bolts, nuts or screws Tighten using screwdriver or wrench. Make sure all bolts, nuts and screws are tight.
Page 28 MAINTENANCE Table 2. Check Points for Inspection (cont’d) Check Point Check Item Check Method Criteria What to do Auxiliary Switch Terminals loose or disconnected Visual inspection. Tighten using a screwdriver. Make sure terminals are not loose or disconnected.
MAINTENANCE Page 29 VACUUM CHECK A sufficient level of vacuum is necessary for proper performance of the vacuum interrupters. Although vacuum leaks are rare, the vacuum integrity should be checked periodically.
Page 30 MAINTENANCE CRITERIA: 1. If a current flow above 5 milliamperes is observed or if breakdown occurs, one or more of the interrupters has insufficient vacuum and must be replaced. Exception: If the current exceeds 5 milliamperes the first time the voltage is brought up, reduce the voltage to zero and increase it again.
DISPOSAL Page 31 DISPOSAL Contact your state environmental agency for details on disposal of electrical components and packaging in your particular area.
STORAGE Page 32 STORAGE If the circuit breaker is to be stored for any length of time prior to installation, the following precautions should be taken: 1) The original packing should be restored, if possible. 2) Do not subject the equipment to moisture or sun rays.
