Visual check of busbars
bb
Connections do not need to be tightened as they was already be tightened to the
tightening torque in worshop and the use of a contact washer compensates for
possible creeps due to overheating. The presence of vernish guaranteeing correct
tightening torque, is intact.
bb
The control of busbars connections and outgoing cables connections can be
carried when disassembling the protection (out of supply) or if a hot point is detected
(infrared control or thermal sensors). A hot point materialises by a change in the
copper colour.
bb
In case of hot point see "Corrective maintenance".
bb
Check the condition of insulating busbars supports.

compressed air.
