5. Instruccions de funcionament

The Siemens QJ22B070 circuit breaker operates as a protective device for your electrical circuits. Its primary functions are to switch power on/off and to automatically interrupt power in case of an overload or short circuit.

• Encenent: Per energitzar el circuit, premeu fermament la maneta de l'interruptor a la posició "ON".
• Apagant: Per desconnectar el circuit, premeu fermament la maneta de l'interruptor a la posició "OFF".
• Condició de disparament: If an overload or short circuit occurs, the breaker will automatically "trip." The handle will move to an intermediate position, typically between "ON" and "OFF," or fully to the "OFF" position depending on the specific trip mechanism.
• Reinici d'un interruptor automàtic disparat: To reset a tripped breaker, first move the handle completely to the "OFF" position. Then, push the handle firmly to the "ON" position. If the breaker immediately trips again, do not attempt to reset it repeatedly. This indicates a persistent fault that requires investigation.

6. Manteniment

Circuit breakers generally require minimal maintenance. Regular visual inspections are recommended to ensure proper function and safety.

• Annual Visual Inspection: Periodically inspect the circuit breaker for any signs of physical damage, discoloration, or loose connections. Discoloration may indicate overheating.
• Pols i deixalles: Ensure the area around the breaker is free from dust and debris, which can impede heat dissipation.
• Inspecció professional: For any concerns or if the breaker frequently trips without an apparent cause, consult a qualified electrician for a thorough inspection and testing.
• Neteja: If cleaning is necessary, ensure power is disconnected and use a dry, lint-free cloth. Do not use liquids or abrasive cleaners.
