This image shows the bottom side of the BRYANT BD20/20 circuit breaker. Visible markings include "USE ONLY IN LISTED ENCLOSURE", "40 C CPL 60/75 C WIRE", and several patent numbers. The text "MADE IN U.S.A." is also clearly visible, indicating the country of manufacture.
This image displays the top side of the BRYANT BD20/20 circuit breaker. Key information includes the "TORQUE" specifications for wire connections: 14-10 AWG 20 IN.LBS., 8 AWG 25 IN.LBS., and 6-4 AWG 27 IN.LBS. The "CURRENT INTERRUPTING RATING" is also shown as "MAX. RMS SYM. AMPERES 10,000 AT 120/240 VOLTS AC".
4. Kurulum ve Kurulum
ÖNEMLİ: Ensure all power to the electrical panel is OFF before proceeding with installation. Use a voltage tester to confirm the absence of power.
- Güç Bağlantısının Kesilmesi: Locate the main service panel and turn off the main breaker to completely de-energize the panel.
- Panel Erişimi: Carefully remove the cover of the electrical panel to expose the bus bar and wiring.
- Kesici Yerleşimi: Identify an available slot on the bus bar that is compatible with the BD20/20's plug-in design.
- Kurulum: Align the circuit breaker with the bus bar and firmly push it into place until it clicks securely. Ensure both poles are properly seated.
- Kablolama: Connect the circuit wires to the appropriate terminals on the circuit breaker. For the BD20/20, connect the two hot wires to the respective screw terminals. Refer to Figure 3.3 for recommended torque specifications for wire gauges (14-10 AWG: 20 in-lbs, 8 AWG: 25 in-lbs, 6-4 AWG: 27 in-lbs).
- Güvenli Bağlantılar: Tighten the terminal screws to the specified torque to ensure a secure and safe electrical connection.
- Panelin Yeniden Montajı: Replace the electrical panel cover, ensuring all screws are tightened.
- Güç Restorasyonu: Turn the main breaker back ON at the service panel.
- Test: Test the circuit protected by the newly installed breaker to confirm proper operation.
5. Kullanım Talimatları
The BRYANT BD20/20 circuit breaker operates with simple ON/OFF toggles. When the circuit breaker trips due to an overload or short circuit, the toggle will move to a central or "tripped" position, typically between ON and OFF.
- AÇMAK için: Push the red toggle(s) firmly to the "ON" position.
- Kapatmak: Push the red toggle(s) firmly to the "OFF" position.
- Atmış bir sigortayı sıfırlamak için: First, push the toggle(s) completely to the "OFF" position. Then, push the toggle(s) firmly to the "ON" position. If the breaker immediately trips again, there may be a persistent fault in the circuit that requires professional attention.
6. Bakım
Circuit breakers like the BRYANT BD20/20 are generally maintenance-free. However, periodic visual inspection is recommended.
- Yıllık inceleme: Annually, or as required by local codes, have a qualified electrician inspect the circuit breaker and its connections for any signs of wear, corrosion, or overheating (discoloration).
- Temizlik: Ensure the area around the circuit breaker within the panel is free from dust and debris. Do not use liquids for cleaning inside the electrical panel.
- Test: While not typically required for residential breakers, some commercial or industrial applications may require periodic testing by a qualified professional.
7. Sorun Giderme
| Sorun | Olası Neden | Çözüm |
|---|---|---|
| Sigorta sık sık atıyor. | Aşırı yüklenmiş devre, kısa devre veya topraklama hatası. | Devredeki yükü azaltın. Cihazların fişini çekin. Kablolarda hasar olup olmadığını kontrol edin. Sorun devam ederse, yetkili bir elektrikçiye danışın. |
| Sigorta sıfırlanmıyor. | Persistent fault (short circuit/ground fault) or internal breaker damage. | Ensure the toggle is pushed fully to "OFF" before attempting to reset to "ON". If it still won't reset, do not force it. Call a qualified electrician. |
| Kurulumdan sonra devreye elektrik gelmiyor. | Breaker not fully seated, loose wiring connections, or main power off. | Verify main breaker is ON. Ensure the BD20/20 is fully seated on the bus bar. Check wire connections for tightness (with power OFF). |
If you are unable to resolve an issue, or if you suspect a serious electrical problem, always contact a qualified and licensed electrician.
