Abstract

Recognizes and summarizes circuit breaker manufacturer's information that knowledgeable users will find useful for the receipt, installation, commissioning, operation and maintenance, and decommissioning of high-voltage (>1000 V) circuit breakers. It recommends categories and an arrangement for the presentation of information in circuit breaker instruction manuals.
