Auxiliary switch AUX
The auxiliary contacts signal the current CLOSED or OPEN position of the circuit breaker.
The four internal auxiliary contacts AUX 4CO are installed in each circuit breaker and non-
automatic air circuit breaker as standard. The user can modify these for 24 V digital signals
or mixed contacts during device configuration as shown in the following table. An additional
external breaker position query is possible with an expansion by 15 external auxiliary
switches with AUX 15CO. You will find the necessary modification of the circuit breaker side
wall in Chapter External accessories (Page 117).
If both auxiliary contact modules are installed, up to 19 auxiliary contacts CLOSED / OPEN
are available.
