2. Sikkerhedsoplysninger
ADVARSEL: Installation, maintenance, and troubleshooting of electrical equipment should only be performed by qualified and licensed electricians. Failure to follow these instructions can result in serious injury, death, or property damage.
- Always disconnect power before working on electrical circuits or equipment.
- Brug passende personlige værnemidler (PPE), herunder isolerede handsker og øjenbeskyttelse.
- Verify all connections are secure and properly torqued according to specifications.
- Ensure the circuit breaker's ratings match the system requirements.
3. Opsætning og installation
The GE SELA36AT0150 is a bolt-on mount circuit breaker. Proper installation is crucial for safe and reliable operation.
3.1 Kontrol før installation
- Confirm the circuit breaker's voltage, current, and interrupting ratings are compatible with the electrical system.
- Undersøg afbryderen for fysisk skade. Installer ikke beskadigede enheder.
- Sørg for, at monteringsfladen er ren, tør og strukturelt sund.
3.2 Monteringsvejledning
- De-energize the electrical panel or system where the breaker will be installed. Verify zero voltage med et multimeter.
- Position the circuit breaker in the designated slot or mounting location.
- Secure the breaker using appropriate bolts and hardware for bolt-on mounting. Ensure it is firmly seated.
- Connect the load and line conductors to the appropriate terminals. The breaker includes a set of bottom lugs.
- Refer to the product label for specific wire ranges and torque specifications:
- Wire Range: #12 - 3/0 CU, #12 - 3/0 AL
- Torque: #12-#10: 35 lb-in, #8-#3: 100 lb-in, #2-3/0: 150 lb-in
- Double-check all connections for tightness and proper insulation.

4. Betjeningsvejledning
The GE SELA36AT0150 circuit breaker is designed for simple operation, primarily acting as an ON/OFF switch and an automatic protective device.
4.1 Tænd/sluk
- To turn the circuit ON, firmly push the handle to the "ON" position.
- To turn the circuit SLUKKET, firmly push the handle to the "OFF" position.
4.2 Tripping and Resetting
If an overcurrent or short circuit condition occurs, the breaker will automatically "trip" to the center position (between ON and OFF) to protect the circuit. To reset a tripped breaker:
- First, move the handle completely to the "OFF" position. This resets the internal mechanism.
- Investigate and resolve the cause of the trip (e.g., overloaded circuit, short circuit).
- Once the issue is resolved, firmly push the handle to the "ON" position to restore power.
- If the breaker immediately trips again, do not attempt to reset it repeatedly. Consult a qualified electrician.
5. Vedligeholdelse
Afbrydere kræver generelt minimal vedligeholdelse. Regelmæssig inspektion anbefales dog for at sikre fortsat sikker drift.
- Visuel inspektion: Annually inspect the breaker for signs of physical damage, discoloration, or loose connections.
- Rensning: Keep the area around the breaker clean and free of dust and debris. Use a dry, non-conductive cloth for cleaning. Do not use liquids.
- Tilslutningstjek: Periodically (e.g., every 3-5 years, or as per local codes) have a qualified electrician check the tightness of terminal connections.
- Test: For critical applications, periodic testing of the breaker's trip mechanism by a qualified professional may be required.
Note: Do not attempt to open or repair the circuit breaker. There are no user-serviceable parts inside.
6. Fejlfinding
Dette afsnit omhandler almindelige problemer, du kan støde på med din afbryder.
| Problem | Mulig årsag | Løsning |
|---|---|---|
| Breaker rejser ofte. | Overbelastet kredsløb, kortslutning, jordfejl eller defekt apparat. | Reducer belastningen på kredsløbet. Tag stikket ud af apparaterne. Undersøg ledningerne for skader. Hvis problemet fortsætter, skal du kontakte en kvalificeret elektriker. |
| Afbryderen nulstilles ikke. | Persistent fault (short circuit/overload) or internal breaker damage. | Ensure the handle is pushed fully to "OFF" before attempting to reset. If it still won't reset, do not force it. Call a qualified electrician. |
| Ingen strøm til kredsløbet, men afbryderen er tændt. | Loose connection, wiring issue, or internal breaker failure. | This indicates a serious issue. Immediately turn off the breaker and consult a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to diagnose or fix yourself. |
For any issues not covered here, or if troubleshooting steps do not resolve the problem, always contact a qualified and licensed electrician.
