Method for guiding installation of internal accessory devices in low voltage switches

Abstract

A method for guiding installation of an accessory device in a low voltage switching device having one or more mounting locations for one or more accessory devices using guided mounting means including an image acquisition device, a display, and processing means executing a guided mounting program for guiding installation of the accessory device in the low voltage switching device. The method includes: acquiring an image of the low voltage switching device and displaying it on the display; identifying the low voltage switching device; displaying in an augmented reality view one or more points of interest of the low voltage switching device by superimposing possible accessory device mounting locations to the image of the low voltage switching device; displaying information concerning possible accessory devices installable in the low voltage switching device; selecting one of the possible accessory devices and identifying in an augmented reality view one or more possible mounting locations of the selected accessory device in the low voltage switching device or selecting one of the possible accessory device mounting locations and identifying in an augmented reality view one or more accessory devices installable in the selected mounting location; and displaying information concerning a mounting procedure of a selected accessory device in a selected mounting location of the low voltage switching device.
