.7 CAUSE DESCPl8TICN AND COA AECTIVE ACTIONS 1iloll The cause is attributed to instrument repeatability. The switch was I

g ; adjusted to trip within the limit of 127.0"H >O AP.

Due to frectuent

,,,,,; cases of instrument repeatability concerning these snap-action switches, f

,,,.,, l the POPC has recxmmended their replacement with a more suitable cauali-I it i4i [ fied nodel.
