The Eaton Cutler Hammer 8779C02G03 DS / DS II Adaptor is an accessory that allows the Eaton Cutler Hammer 140D481G03 Secondary Injection Test Set to test DS and DS II breakers with Digitrip trip units manufactured after May 1993. DSII Air Circuit Breakers are equipped with the new test port and will also require the 8779C02G03 adapter if using the 140D481G03 test set.
The 8779C02G03 adaptor is easy to use. Simply connect it to the test port on the circuit breaker and then connect the test set to the adaptor. The test set will then be able to communicate with the circuit breaker and perform the necessary tests.
Here’s a breakdown of its purpose and function:
Compatibility: The 8779C02G03 adapter is required when using the 140D481G03 test set to test DS breakers with Digitrip trip units manufactured after May 1993. It’s also needed for DSII air circuit breakers with the newer test port when using the same test set.
Function: This adapter enables the 140D481G03 test set to properly interface with the Digitrip trip units on these specific breakers. It facilitates the testing of various functions and parameters of the trip unit, ensuring the breaker’s protection systems are functioning correctly.Â
In simpler terms, think of it as a bridge that allows the test set to communicate with the trip unit on the circuit breaker. Without this adapter, the test set wouldn’t be able to connect and perform the necessary tests.
Here are some of the benefits of using the Eaton Cutler Hammer 8779C02G03 DS / DS II Adaptor:
- Allows the 140D481G03 Secondary Injection Test Set to test DS and DS II breakers with Digitrip trip units manufactured after May 1993.
- Easy to use and provides a reliable way to test these breakers.
- Essential for testing DSII Air Circuit Breakers with the 140D481G03 test set.
