QUESTION
What do you feel is safer in racking in a 15HK500 bkr.
- Control power fuses in and door shut, racking Bkr all the way to connect. Mind you springs charge when you reach test. Or,
- Racking breaker in with fuses out and after reaching connect, open door and install control power fuses. Springs charge when fuses installed.

Most HK’s will have a motor disconnect switch. I would turn that off before racking. The best answer is to use remote racking.
