4 Converting the earthing and testing truck to the appropriate function
The earthing and testing truck can be used as a tool for the following voltage tests:
Voltage tests on the busbar (see page ● 20)
Voltage tests on the high-voltage cables connected (see page ● 20)
The truck is delivered with busbar or cable compartment connection, depend-ing on customer’s requirements.
Prior to the intended use, the truck must be set and tested appropriately.
Earthing and testing 4.1 truck with finger-type contacts
Truck4.1.1 for busbar
In service position, the testing with- drawable part only establishes electrical contact with the upper fixed contacts of the panel.
Thus, the shutter actuation of the truck may only be mounted on its right-hand side to make sure that only the upper shutter is actuated.
Any shutter synchronization installed in part of the panels must be deacti-vated (see page 15).
Warning! High voltage! The lower shutter must remain closed in any case.
Truck4.1.2 for cable connection
In service position, the testing with- drawable part only establishes electrical contact with the lower fixed contacts of the panel.
Thus, the shutter actuation of the truck may only be mounted on its left-hand side to make sure that only the lower shutter is actuated.
Any shutter synchronization installed in part of the panels must be inter-rupted (see page 15).
Warning! High voltage! The upper shutter must remain closed in any case.

Interlocks6.1
For the earthing and testing truck, the panel-specific models of the truck inter-lock apply. They are recorded in the panel instruction manuals and specified in the contract details.
Operating specifications6.2
The switchgear unit may only be operated by specialist electricians who have proven experience (training certificate) in conjunction with the PIX 12-17-24 kV series and all the relevant safety standards.
Refer also to the safety provisions in Chapter 1.
Warning! To rule out faulty switching operations, the operating sequences described below must be complied with. Each switching operation must be completed.
Check whether the supply voltage is ON.
Important:After each switching operation for which you have used a crank or a lever, remove this tool and store it in the tool board.
6.3 Moving the truck into service/disconnected position
Warning!Trucks may on principle only be moved into service or disconnected position when de-energized. Isolate the busbar / outgoing feeder cable from the power supply and earth it.
Important:Do not pull the crank out before the truck in question has reached its end posi-tion; do not pull it out in an undefined intermediate position.
Initial situation:
Earthing switch OFF ●Busbar / cable connection compartment de-energized and earthed ●
