Device description

Draw-Out Base

Base for draw-out equipment, allowing movement between connected, test and disconnected positions without removing the main wiring.

A draw-out base provides mechanical guidance and electrical interfaces for a draw-out device.

It allows the equipment to be withdrawn or moved to intermediate positions without dismantling the main power and control wiring.

Depending on the system, connected, test, disconnected and service positions may be available.

Selection criteria include device compatibility, pole count, current-carrying capability, type of main and secondary contacts, positioning mechanism and maintenance requirements.
