RACKING DEVICE AND POWER MODULE THEREFOR

摘要

A racking device (102) performs a circuit breaker racking operation. The racking device (102) includes a base (104) with wheels (114) and a brake to facilitate moving the racking device and positioning it with respect to a switchgear cabinet. An elongated tubular member (106) extends substantially vertically from the base (104). A self-contained counter-balanced power module (130) includes an enclosure (132) having a pair of opposing openings (134, 135) for receiving the elongated tubular member (106), and a counterweight system (138) for counter-balancing the power module (130).
