For withdrawable parts, the isolation provided in the isolated position shall at least comply with the requirements in the relevant specification for disconnectors (see IEC 60947-3). This applies with the equipment in new condition, taking account of the manufacturing tolerances and anticipated changes in dimensions due to wear.The isolating distance between the withdrawable unit main contacts and their associated fixed contacts in the isolated position shall be capable of withstanding the test voltage for the declared impulse withstand voltage as specified in Table 102.
When removable or withdrawable parts are equipped with a metal supporting surface, these surfaces shall be considered sufficient for ensuring earth continuity of protective circuits provided that the pressure exerted on them is sufficiently high. The continuity of the protective circuit of a withdrawable part shall remain effective from the connected position to the isolated position inclusively.
The removable and withdrawable parts shall be so constructed that their electrical equipment can be safely removed and/or isolated from or connected to the main circuit whilst this circuit is live. The removable and withdrawable parts may be provided with an insertion interlock (see 3.2.5 of Part 1).
Clearances and creepage distances (see 8.3 of Part 1 and 8.3.2 above) shall be complied with in the different positions as well as during transfer from one position to another.
Withdrawable parts shall have in addition an isolated position (see 3.2.103) and may have a test position (see 3.2.102), or a test situation (see 3.1.102). They shall be distinctly located in these positions. These positions shall be clearly discernible.
In PSC-ASSEMBLIES with withdrawable parts all live parts shall be protected in such a manner that they cannot unintentionally be touched when the door, if any, is open and the withdrawable part is withdrawn from the connected position or removed. Where an obstacle or shutter is used they shall meet the requirements of 8.4.6.2.5 of Part 1. AS NZS 61439.2 pdf free download.
