De-energizing the secondary of the CPT shall not depend on the operation of auxiliary contacts or cut-off switches. 7. Operating handle shall be equipped with padlock provisions. 8. The racking mechanism is to combine the following safety interlocks: a. Prevent forward and back movement of the drawout carriage unless the contactor is de-energized or open. b. Prevent the opening of the high voltage compartment door unless the drawout carriage is in the disconnect position. c. Prevent the movement of the drawout carriage to or from the connected position unless the high voltage compartment door is closed. 9. A test switch shall be provided to switch from run to test mode. This switch shall be located on the back side of the low voltage door. With the contactor racked out and the door opened, the test mode shall be selectable. It shall allow for maintenance and operation of the main contactor and low voltage control circuitry without requiring energizing the motor or disconnecting any load cables. An interlock shall be provided to prevent application of test power when the contactor is racked in. 10. A control receptacle shall be furnished that connects to the pre-wired auxiliary and coil contacts of the drawout carriage. It shall remain connected in the racked-out position to facilitate testing. 11. Externally visible red LED indicating light, illuminated when carriage is connected to bus. 12. Low voltage compartment with door-in-door construction shall be provided to provide access from the front. a. Compartment to be isolated from high voltage compartments and house components including terminal blocks, if microprocessor relays are specified in 2.4.C), and control wiring. b.
