kV class, then HK, then the MVA interrupting class.
- HK breakers sell as spares and as cores for vacuum retrofits.

Same family. We read ITE, BBC, and ABB HK labels the same way.
Yes. Breakers usually sell better with the lineup they came from, and we can take the whole thing out.
We do. Medium voltage breakers are heavy and the mechanisms are not forgiving; our crew brings the lift truck and rigging. You de-energize and lock out.
