Description
Types SSD and SHD Power Break II draw-out circuit
breakers are used in types SPS and SPH substructures, with
appropriate catalog numbers listed in Table 1. Power
Break II switches are used only with type SPH
substructures, with appropriate catalog numbers listed in

feeder, allows rapid replacement of a device, and
facilitates inspection and maintenance of the draw-out
device with no need to de-energize the entire switchboard.
