Servicing program
The tables show the servicing program, specifying the timing of the measures and the type of routine servicing procedures, which should
be completed in the order in which they are listed.
It is also advisable to comply with the following rules:
- even circuit breakers that are operated only rarely, or that remain closed or open for lengthy periods of time, need routine servicing;
- in order to establish a suitable time interval for servicing procedures, it is advisable to install a mechanical operations counter (available

Servicing procedures
Inspection and general cleaning
Before taking any action:
- open the circuit breaker and make sure that the control springs are not loaded;
- when taking action on circuit breakers, disconnect the supply to the power circuit and to the auxiliary circuits
and earth the terminals in a clearly visible manner, both on the power side and on the load side;
- make the equipment safe in accordance with current laws and standards.
Check the state of cleanliness of the equipment (the circuit-breaking part), taking action to remove any dust or traces of excess
oil or grease with the aid of a clean dry cloth, using spirits or a mild detergent where necessary.
Check for the presence of the labels indicating the technical characteristics of the device.
These labels must be cleaned with a clean dry cloth.
Check for any signs of factors such as overheating or cracks that might interfere with the efficient insulation of the circuit breaker.
Make sure there are no foreign objects inside the circuit breaker compartment.
Check the tightness of the circuit breaker fixing screws, using the torque specified in the installation instructions.
Power connections between the circuit breaker and the switchboard
Remove any dust or dirt depositing on the insulating parts with the aid of a brush and clean cloths, using a mild detergent if
necessary.
Make sure there are no signs of localized overheating on the terminals.
This problem can be identified from any change in the coloring of the parts coming into contact; the parts in contact are usually
silver in color.
Check the tightness of the bolts, using the torque specified in the installation instructions and catalogues.
Auxiliary circuits
Check the proper connection of the cables and fasteners.
For the procedures for dismantling and reinstalling the escutcheon plate, refer to the circuit breaker installation instructions,
which are also available on the website.
Accessories
Make sure the accessories are firmly
attached to the circuit breaker.
