Ferrite
Grounding shunt
Maneuver shafts
The ground switch might be operated by a maneu-
ver shaft that transfers the power from the operat-
ing mechanism to the switch, in case the operating
mechanism is externally located. If this maneuver shaft
is made of a conducting material you need to apply a
ferrite around it. If the same maneuver shaft operates
all three phases, ferrites need to be applied between
the phases to separate them from each other.
Shielded cables
If there is a signal cable going to the ground switch it
is most likely of shielded type and then it is necessary
to apply a ferrite around the cable.
5 Mounting / Set-up
Combination B and C
Tuning
Once all ferrites are attached the system need to be
tuned. This must be done when the circuit breaker is
in closed position.
1] Check that the circuit breaker is in closed
position.
