Abstract
A drawout system with an interface proving a lower ingress protection rating is provided. The system includes a flange mounted to a door. A sleeve is movably mounted to the door adjacent to the flange. As the circuit breaker is moved from a racked-in position to a test position to a racked-out position, the sleeve moves with the circuit breaker and avoids creating exposure to electrical components within the drawout. The drawout system allows the operator to operate the circuit breaker with the door open or closed.
