hi, I have job in medical clinic to contact shunt trip breaker with disconnect switch.
I don’t have any diagram as it’s old breaker. Qj23b200.
It has 4 wires 1 white and 3 black. Blacks are marked as A, S and T.
I am attaching photos for the breaker and switch.
Thank you

A and white are the aux contacts, S and T are the trip coil.

I suggest wiring the switch in series with the coil. For example:

Connect A to S (or T), connect the white to the neutral bar, and connect T (or S) to the incoming tripping voltage source.
 
I am attaching the photos
A & c wire nut together, c (white) into neutral.
T to black ((14/2) coming from switch,
14/2 white to line

That should be A and S connected together, not A and C, I think.

Power to white of 14-2 to the tripping switch, returning on black to T to coil, S from coil to A, white to neutral in panel.

120v will trip the coil, then the aux. contacts will instantly open, so the trip coil will not overheat from constant power.
