NEMA US 80022-2022

There are many suppliers who suggest to users that switchgear assemblies, circuit breakers, and associated devices are 100% refurbishable, and that they, the suppliers, possess the abilities to perform such activities.  The capabilities are often overstated due to the suppliers’ limited access to proper materials, documentation, and design intent.  NEMA’s position is that refurbishment of switching and current breaking, or fault current interruption equipment is recommended only under certain circumstances.
