IEEE PC37.12.1 DRAFT

Description / Abstract: This recommended practice identifies and summarizes circuit breaker manufacturer’s information thatknowledgeable users will find useful for the receipt, installation, commissioning, operation and maintenance, and decommissioning of high-voltage (1000 V) circuit breakers. This recommended practicerecommends categories and an arrangement for the presentation of information in circuit breaker instruction manuals

Purpose

The purpose of the document is to provide recommendations for authors and those who specify instruction manuals for high-voltage circuit breakers. The instruction manual structured format will allow knowledgeable users a means to effectively and quickly find the information they need

-To receive, install, and commission, new high-voltage circuit breakers

- To operate, inspect, maintain, and repair high-voltage circuit breakers throughout their life

-To decommission the high-voltage circuit breaker at the end of life
