2.0 GENERAL INFORMATION
The Shunt Trip allows a circuit breaker to be tripped
remotely by applying a voltage to the wire leads. The unit
consists of an intermittent solenoid with a tripping
plunger and a cutoff switch, and is mounted so that when
the solenoid is energized, the trip lever presses against
the trip bar and trips the circuit breaker. As the breaker
trips, the molded crossbar moves away from the cutoff
switch, disconnecting power to the solenoid and prevent-
ing coil burnout.

4.0 TESTING
Refer to figure 4-1.
Step 1: With no voltage applied to Shunt Trip, ensure
that breaker handle can be set to the Closed (ON)
position.
Step 2: Where practical and after taking all necessary
precautions, apply rated voltage to Shunt Trip and ensure
that breaker handle moves to the TRIP position.
