Verification of the discrimination between two
circuit breakers
By superimposing the curve of a circuit breaker on that of the circuit breaker installed
In upstream, one can check whether this combination will be discriminating in cases of
overload (discrimination for all current values, up to the magnetic threshold of the
upstream circuit breaker). This verification is useful when one of the two circuit
breakers has adjustable thresholds; for fixed-threshold devices, this information is
provided directly by the discrimination tables.
To check discrimination on short circuit, the energy characteristics of the two devices
must be compared.

Circuit breakers
High temperatures
bb A rise in temperature decreases the tripping current of the thermal protection.
bb Protection is still ensured: the tripping threshold remains lower than the current
acceptable by the cable (Iz)
bb To prevent nuisance tripping, it should be checked that this threshold remains
higher than the maximum operating current (IB) of the circuit, defined by:
vv the rated load currents,
vv the coefficients of expansion and simultaneity of use.
If the temperature is sufficiently high for the tripping threshold to become lower than
the operating current IB, switchboard ventilation should be provided for.
Low temperatures
bb A fall in temperature increases the tripping current of the thermal protection.
bb There is no risk of nuisance tripping: the threshold remains higher than the
maximum operating current of the circuit (IB) demanded by the loads.
bb It should be checked that the cable remains suitably protected, i.e. that its
acceptable current (Iz) is higher than the values shown in the following tables
(in amperes).
When the ambient temperature could vary within a broad range, both these aspects
must be taken into account:
bb the difference between the maximum operating current of the circuit (IB) and the
tripping threshold of the circuit breaker for the minimum ambient temperature,
bb the difference between the strength of the cable (IZ) and the maximum tripping
threshold of the circuit breaker for the maximum ambient temperature.
bb Example:
Depending on the ambient temperature and the method of installation, the table
below shows how to determine, for a C60, the operating currents not to be exceeded
for ratings 25 A, 32 A and 40 A (reference temperature 50°C).
RCCB
bb In all cases, the RCCB are correctly protected against overloads by a circuit breaker with a lower or equal rating, operating at the same
ambient temperature.
Multi 9 products The following table indicates the average dissipated power per pole in W for a
current equal to the rating of the device and at the operating voltage.
Note: RCBO dissipated power per pole is the sum of circuit breaker dissipated power per pole + add-on residual current device dissipated power per pole.
Example: C60N (63 A) + Vigi C60 (63 A) = 4.3 + 3.0 = 7.3 W.
Isc Definition
DB125768
Prospective The limiting capacity of a circuit breaker is its ability to lessen the effects of a short
peak Isc circuit on an electrical installation by reducing the current amplitude and the
dissipated power.
Prospective Isc
Benefits of limiting
Long installation service life
Thermal effects
Limited
peak Isc Lower temperature rise at the conductor level, hence increased service life for
cables and all components that are not self-protected (e.g. switches, contactors, etc.)
Mechanical effects
Limited Isc Lower electrodynamic repulsion forces, hence less risk of deformation or breakage
of electrical contacts and busbars.
Electromagnetic effects
tc t
Less interference on sensitive equipment located in the vicinity of an electric circuit.
Prospective current and real limit current.
Savings through cascading
Cascading is a technique derived directly from current limiting: downstream of a
current-limiting circuit breaker it is possible to use circuit breakers of breaking
I²sc capacity lower than the prospective short-circuit current (in line with the cascading
DB125767-LIO
The straight line "10 ms" representing the energy A²s of a prospective short-circuit
current of a half-period (10 ms) indicates the energy that would be dissipated by
the short-circuit current in the absence of limiting by the protection device
(see example).

Introduction
bb The PowerPact Multistandard circuit breakers are designed and certified to
PB114874_L32.eps
multiple standards in order to meet the needs of customers who have global designs
or build and sell in various standard regions. One product can be used and sourced
globally. B-frame circuit breakers have the smallest footprint in the PowerPact family
of products.
bb The B-frame product offers a flexible platform in which customer needs for various
types of mounting and terminations can be accommodated with simple alterations of
the base product. Field installable features empower the customer to configure the
product to their exact needs for control panel or power panel applications.
bb B-frame circuit breakers with thermal-magnetic trip units contain individual thermal
(overload) and instantaneous (short circuit) sensing elements in each pole. The
amperage ratings of the thermal trip units are calibrated at 40 °C (104 °F) free air
ambient temperature. Per the National Electric Code® (NEC®) and the Canadian
Electrical Code, standard circuit breakers may only be applied continuously at up to
80 % of their rating.
A
Dual-break rotating contacts
All PowerPact Multistandard circuit breakers are equipped with dual-break rotating
contacts that reduce the amount of peak current during a short circuit fault.
This reduces the let-through currents and enhances equipment protection.
DB419675.eps
DB419674.eps
Reduced let-through currents
The moving contact has the shape of an elongated “S” and rotates around
a floating axis. The shape of the fixed and moving contacts are such that the
repelling forces appear as soon as the circuit reaches approximately 15 times In.
Due to the rotating movement, repulsion is rapid and the device greatly limits
short-circuit currents, whatever the interrupting level of the unit. The fault current is
extinguished before it can fully develop. Lower let-through currents provide less
peak energy, reducing the required bus bar bracing, lowering enclosure pressure,
and delivering improved series or combination ratings.
DB419676.eps
Internal operating mechanism
PowerPact Multistandard circuit breakers have an over-center toggle mechanism
providing quick-make, quick-break operation. The operating mechanism is also OFF
trip-free, which allows tripping even when the circuit breaker handle is held in the
“ON” position.
Internal cross-bars provide common opening and closing of all poles with a single
operating handle.
Trip
All PowerPact circuit breakers have an integral push-to-trip button in the cover to
Trip
manually trip the circuit breaker. This should be used as part of a regular preventive
maintenance program.
Push-to-trip.
DB418565.eps
The circuit breaker handle can assume any of three positions, ON, tripped or OFF as OFF
shown.
The center tripped position provides positive visual indication that the circuit breaker
has tripped.
The circuit breaker can be reset by first pushing the handle to the extreme “OFF” ON
position. Power can then be restored to the load by pushing the handle to the “ON”

Ambient temperature
PowerPact Multistandard circuit breakers may be used between -25 °C and +70 °C
(-13°F and 158°F).
For temperatures higher than 40 °C (104°F) inside the enclosure, devices must be
B derated.
Circuit breakers should be put into service under normal ambient, operating-
temperature conditions.
Exceptionally, the circuit breaker may be put into service when the ambient
temperature is between -35 °C and -25 °C (-31°F and -13°F).
The permissible storage-temperature range for PowerPact Multistandard circuit
breakers in the original packing is -50 °C and +85 °C (-67°F and 185°F).

Weight
The table below presents the weights of the circuit breakers.
Type of device Circuit breakers
B-frame 1P 510 g / 1.1 lbs
2P 770 g / 1.7 lbs
3P 1070 g / 2.4 lbs
4P 1440 g / 3.2 lbs
General rules
When installing a circuit breaker, minimum distances (safety clearances) must be
maintained between the device and panels, busbars and other protection devices
installed nearby. These distances are defined by tests carried out in accordance with
UL standards.
If installation is not checked by type tests, it is also necessary to:
B
bb use insulated bars for circuit-breaker connections
bb segregate the busbars using phase barriers.
For PowerPact Multistandard devices, terminal shields and interphase barriers are
recommended and may be mandatory depending on type of installation (unit-mount,
drawout, etc.).
Power connections
The table below indicates the connection requirements for PowerPact B
Multistandard devices to ensure insulation of live parts for the various types of
connection.
Connection accessories such as spreaders and some crimp lugs are supplied with
interphase barriers. Long terminal shields provide a degree of protection of IP40.

Text in quotation marks is drawn from the standards.
Accessories .........................................................................................
Bare-cable connector Conducting part of the circuit breaker intended for connection to power circuits.
On PowerPact, you can use Everlink lug or an aluminum part that screws to the
connection terminals of the circuit breaker. There are one or more holes (single or
multiple cable connector) for the ends of bare cables.
Connection terminals Flat copper surface, linked to the conducting parts of the circuit breaker and to
which power connections are made using bars, connectors or lugs.
Spreaders Set of three (3P device) or four (4P device) flat, conducting parts made of copper.
They are screwed to the circuit breaker terminals to increase the pitch between
poles.
Degree of protection (IP) Defines device protection against the penetration of solid objects and liquids, using
IEC 60529 two digits specified in standard IEC 60259. Each digit corresponds to a level of
protection, where 0 indicates no protection.
bb First digit (0 to 6): protection against penetration of solid foreign objects.
1 corresponds to protection against objects with a diameter > 50 mm, 6
corresponds to total protection against dust.
bb Second digit (0 to 8): protection against penetration of liquids (water).
1 corresponds to protection against falling drops of water (condensation),
8 corresponds to continuous immersion.
The enclosure of PowerPact circuit breakers provides a minimum of IP40
(protection against objects > 1 mm) and can reach IP56 (protection against dust
G and powerful water jets) depending on the installation conditions.
Degree of protection against Defines the aptitude of an object to resist mechanical impacts on all sides,
external mechanical impacts (IK) indicated by a number from 0 to 10 (standard IEC 62262). Each number
corresponds to the impact energy (in Joules) that the object can handle according
to a standardised procedure.
0 corresponds to no protection, 1 to an impact energy of 0.14 Joules, 10 to an
impact energy of 20 Joules. PowerPact provide IK07 (2 Joules) and can provide
IK08
(5 Joules) depending on the installation conditions.
Durability The term "durability" is used in the standards instead of "endurance" to express
IEC 60947-1 the expectancy of the number of operating cycles which can be performed by the
equipment before repair or replacement of parts. The term "endurance" is used for
specifically defined operational performance.
Electrical durability With respect to its resistance to electrical wear, equipment is characterised by the
IEC 60947-1 number of loaded operating cycles, corresponding to the service conditions given
in the relevant product standard, which can be made without replacement.
Frame size "A term designating a group of circuit breakers, the external physical dimensions
of which are common to a range of current ratings. Frame size is expressed in
amperes corresponding to the highest current rating of the group. Within a frame
size, the width may vary according to the number of poles. This definition does not
imply dimensional standardization."
PowerPact has four frame sizes covering 125 A, 150 A, 250 A and 600 A.
Insulation class Defines the type of device insulation in terms of earthing and the corresponding
safety for the user, in one of three classes.
bb Class I. The device is earthed. Any electrical faults, internal or external, or caused
by the load, are cleared via the earthing circuit, thus ensuring user safety.
bb Class II. The device is not connected to a protective conductor. User safety is
ensured by reinforced insulation around the live parts (an insulating case and no
contact with live parts, i.e. plastic buttons, molded connections, etc.) or double
insulation.
bb Class III. The device may be connected only to SELV (safety extra-low voltage)
circuits.
The PowerPact are class II devices (front) and may be installed through the door
in class II switchboards (standards IEC 61140 and IEC 60664-1), without reducing
insulation, even with a rotary handle or motor mechanism module.
Making capacity Value of prospective making current that a switching device is capable of making
at a stated voltage under prescribed conditions of use and behaviour. Reference is
generally made to the short-circuit making capacity Icm.
Maximum break time Maximum time after which breaking is effective, i.e. the contacts separated and the
current completely interrupted.
Mechanical durability With respect to its resistance to mechanical wear, equipment is characterised by
IEC 947-1 the number of no-load operating cycles which can be effected before it becomes
necessary to service or replace any mechanical parts.
Non-tripping time This is the minimum time during which the protective device does not operate
in spite of pick-up overrun, if the duration of the overrun does not exceed the
corresponding voluntary time delay.
Pollution degree "Conventional number based on the amount of conductive or hygroscopic dust,
of environment conditions ionized gas or salt and on the relative humidity and its frequency of occurrence,
IEC 60947-1 resulting in hygroscopic absorption or condensation of moisture leading to
reduction in dielectric strength and/or surface resistivity". Standard IEC 60947-1
IEC 60664-1
distinguishes four pollution degrees.
bb Degree 1. No pollution or only dry, non-conductive pollution occurs.
bb Degree 2. Normally, only non-conductive pollution occurs. Occasionally, however,
a temporary conductivity caused by condensation may be expected.
bb Degree 3. Conductive pollution occurs, or dry, non-conductive pollution occurs
which becomes conductive due to condensation.
bb Degree 4. The pollution generates persistent conductivity caused, for instance, by
conductive dust or by rain or snow.
PowerPact meets degree 3, which corresponds to industrial applications.
Prospective short-circuit current Current that would flow through the poles if they remained fully closed during the
G
short-circuit.
Rated current (In) This is the current that the device has been certified to carry continuously within all
parameters described by the standard.
Rated impulse withstand voltage "The peak value of an impulse voltage of prescribed form and polarity which the
(Uimp) equipment is capable of withstanding without failure under specified conditions
of test and to which the values of the clearances are referred. The rated impulse
withstand voltage of an equipment shall be equal to or higher than the values
stated for the transient overvoltages occurring in the circuit in which the equipment
is fitted".
Rated insulation voltage (Ui) "The rated insulation voltage of an equipment is the value of voltage to which
dielectric tests and creepage distances are referred. In no case shall the maximum
value of the rated operational voltage exceed that of the rated insulation voltage".
Rated operational current (Ie) "A rated operational current of an equipment is stated by the manufacturer and
takes into account the rated operational voltage, the rated frequency, the rated
duty, the utilization category and the type of protective enclosure, if appropriate".
Rated operational voltage (Ue) "A value of voltage which, combined with a rated operational current, determines
the application of the equipment and to which the relevant tests and the utilisation
categories are referred. For multipole equipment, it is generally stated as the
voltage between phases".
This is the maximum continuous voltage at which the equipment may be used.
Rated short-time withstand current "Value of short-time withstand current, assigned to the equipment by the
(Icw) manufacturer, that the equipment can carry without damage, under the test
conditions specified in the relevant product standard". Generally expressed in kA
for 0.5, 1 or 3 seconds. This is an essential characteristic for air circuit breakers. It
is not significant for molded-case circuit breakers for which the design targets fast
opening and high limiting capacity.
Service breaking capacity (Ics) Expressed as a percentage of Icu, it provides an indication on the robustness of
the device under severe conditions. It is confirmed by a test with one opening and
one closing/opening at Ics, followed by a check that the device operates correctly
at its rated current, i.e. 50 cycles at In, where temperature rise remains within
tolerances and the protection system suffers no damage.
Short-circuit making capacity (Icm) Value indicating the capacity of the device to make and carry a high current without
repulsion of the contacts. It is expressed in kA peak.
Suitability for isolation This capability means that the circuit breaker meets the conditions below.
bb In the open position, it must withstand, without flashover between the upstream
and downstream contacts, the impulse voltage specified by the standard as a
function of the Uimp indicated on the device.
bb It must indicate contact position by one or more of the following systems:
vv position of the operating handle
vv separate mechanical indicator
vv visible break of the moving contacts
bb Leakage current between each pole, with the contacts open, at a test voltage of
1.1 x the rated operating voltage, must not exceed:
vv 0.5 mA per pole for new devices
vv 2 mA per pole for devices already subjected to normal switching operations
vv 6 mA, the maximum value that must never be exceeded.
bb It must not be possible to install padlocks unless the contacts are open. Locking in
the closed position is permissible for special applications. PowerPact complies with
this requirement by positive contact indication.
Suitable for isolation with positive Suitability for isolation is defined here by the mechanical reliability of the position
contact indication indicator of the operating mechanism, where:
(see also Suitability for isolation, bb the isolation position corresponds to the O (OFF) position
bb the operating handle cannot indicate the "OFF" position unless the contacts are
page G2)
effectively open.
The other conditions for isolation must all be fulfilled:
bb locking in the open position is possible only if the contacts are effectively open
bb leakage currents are below the standardised limits
bb overvoltage impulse withstand between upstream and downstream connections.
G Ultimate breaking capacity (Icu) Expressed in kA, it indicates the maximum breaking capacity of the circuit breaker.
It is confirmed by a test with one opening and one closing/opening at Icu, followed
by a check that the circuit is properly isolated. This test ensures user safety.
Components..........................................................................................
ASIC (Application Specific Integrated Integrated circuit designed, built and intended for a specific application. It carries
Circuit) out repetitive sequences of instructions engraved in the silicon chip. For that
reason, it is extremely reliable because it cannot be modified and is not affected by
environment conditions.
Micrologic trip units use an ASIC for the protection functions. The ASIC cyclically
polls the network status at a high frequency, using the values supplied by captors.
Comparison with the settings forms the basis for orders to the electronic trip units.
Controls..................................................................................................
CNOMO machine-tool rotary handle Handle used for machine-tool control enclosures and providing IP54 and IK08.
Direct rotary handle This is an optional control handle for the circuit breaker. It has the same three
positions I (ON), O (OFF) and TRIPPED as the toggle control. It provides IP40,
IK07 and the possibility, due to its extended travel, of using early-make and early-
break contacts. It maintains suitability for isolation and offers optional locking using
a keylock or a padlock.
Emergency off In a circuit equipped with a circuit breaker, this function is carried out by an opening
mechanism using an MN undervoltage release or an MX shunt trip in conjunction
with an emergency off button.
Extended rotary handle Rotary handle with an extended shaft to control devices installed at the rear of
switchboards or control panels. It has the same characteristics as direct rotary
handles. It offers multiple locking possibilities using a padlock or a door interlock.
Side rotary handle Rotary handle with a side shaft to control devices installed in the switchboards.
It has the same characteristics as direct rotary handles. It offers multiple locking
possibilities using a padlock.
Failsafe remote tripping Remote tripping is carried out by an opening mechanism using an MN
undervoltage release in conjunction with an emergency off button. If power is lost,
the protection device opens the circuit breaker.
Discrimination / Cascading...............................................................
Cascading /Series Ratings Cascading implements the current-limiting capacity of a circuit breaker, making it
possible to install downstream circuit breakers with lower performance levels.
The upstream circuit breaker reduces any high short-circuit currents. This makes
it possible to install downstream circuit breakers with breaking capacities less than
the prospective short-circuit current at their point of installation.
The main advantage of cascading is to reduce the overall cost of electrical
distribution equipment.
Because the current is limited throughout the circuit downstream of the limiting
circuit breaker, cascading applies to all the devices located downstream.
Current discrimination Discrimination based on the difference between the current-protection settings
of the circuit breakers. The difference in settings between two successive circuit
G
breakers in a circuit must be sufficient to allow the downstream breaker to clear
the fault before the upstream breaker trips.
Discrimination Discrimination is ensured between upstream and downstream circuit breakers if,
when a fault occurs, only the circuit breaker placed immediately upstream of the
fault trips.
Discrimination is the key to ensuring the continuity of service of an installation.
Energy discrimination This function is specific to PowerPact and supplements the other types of
discrimination.
Partial discrimination Discrimination is partial if the conditions for total discrimination are not met up to
the ultimate short-circuit current Icu, but only up to a lesser value. This value is
called the discrimination limit. If a fault exceeds the discrimination limit, both circuit
breakers trip.
Time discrimination Discrimination based on the difference between the time-delay settings of the
circuit breakers. The upstream trip unit is delayed to provide the downstream
breaker the time required to clear the fault.
Total discrimination Total discrimination is ensured between upstream and downstream circuit
breakers if, for all fault values, from overloads up to solid short-circuits, only the
downstream circuit breaker trips and the upstream circuit breaker remains closed.
Environment...........................................................................................
EMC (Electromagnetic EMC is the capacity of a device not to disturb its environment during operation
compatibility) (emitted electromagnetic disturbances) and to operate in a disturbed environment
(electromagnetic disturbances affecting the device). The standards define various
classes for the types of disturbances. Micrologic trip units comply with annexes F
and J in standard IEC IE60947-2.
Power loss The flow of current through the Circuit breaker poles produces Joule-effect losses
Pole resistance caused by the resistance of the poles.
Product environmental profile An assessment on the impact of the construction and use of a product on
(PEP) the environment, in compliance with standard ISO 14040, Environmental
LCA: Life-cycle assessment management, life-cycle assessment (LCA), principles and framework.
For PowerPact, this assessment is carried out using the standardised EIME
ISO 14040
(Environmental Impact and Management Explorer) software, which makes
possible comparisons between the products of different manufacturers.
It includes all stages, i.e. manufacture, distribution, use and end of life, with set
usage assumptions:
bb use over 20 years at a percent load of 80 % for 14 hours per day and 20 % for ten
hours
bb according to the European electrical-energy model.
It provides the information presented below.
bb Materials making up the product: composition and proportions, with a check to
make sure no substances forbidden by the RoHS directive are included.
bb Manufacture: on Schneider Electric production sites that have set up an
environmental management system certified ISO 14001.
bb Distribution: packaging in compliance with the 94/62/EC packaging directive
(optimised volumes and weights) and optimised distribution flows via local centres.
bb Use: no aspects requiring special precautions for use. Power lost through Joule
effect in Watts (W) must be < 0.02 % of total power flowing through the circuit
breaker. Based on the above assumptions, annual consumption from 95 to 200
kWh.
bb End of life: products dismantled or crushed. For PowerPact, 81 % of materials
can be recycled using standard recycling techniques. Less than 2 % of total weight
requires special recycling.
Product environmental profile Environmental indicators are also frequently used for the PEP (sheet available on
(PEP) request for PowerPact):
bb Depletion of natural resources
G Environmental indicators
bb Depletion of energy
bb Depletion of water
bb Potential for atmospheric warming (greenhouse effect)
bb Potential for stratospheric ozone depletion
bb Creation of atmospheric ozone (ozone layer)
bb Acidification of air (acid rain)
bb Production of hazardous waste.
RoHS directive European directive 2002/95/EC dated 27 January 2003 aimed at reducing or
(Restriction of Hazardous substances) eliminating the use of hazardous substances. The manufacturer must attest to
compliance, without third-party certification. Circuit breakers are not included in
the list of concerned products, which are essentially consumer products.
That not withstanding, Schneider Electric decided to comply with the RoHS
directive.
PowerPact products are designed in compliance with RoHS and do not contain
(above the authorised levels) lead, mercury, cadmium, hexavalent chromium or
flame retardants (polybrominated biphenyls PBB and polybrominated diphenyl
ether PBDE).
Safety clearances When installing a circuit breaker, minimum distances (safety clearances) must be
maintained between the device and panels, bars and other protection systems
installed nearby. These distances, which depend on the ultimate breaking
capacity, are defined by tests carried out in accordance with standard IEC 60947-
2.
Temperature derating An ambient temperature varying significantly from 40 °C can modify operation of
magnetic or thermal-magnetic protection functions. It does not affect electronic trip
units. However, when electronic trip units are used in high-temperature situations,
it is necessary to check the settings to ensure that only the permissible current for
the given ambient temperature is let through.
Vibration withstand Circuit breakers are tested in compliance with standard IEC 60068-2-6 for the
IEC 60068-2-6 levels required by merchant-marine inspection organisations (Veritas, Lloyd's,
etc.):
bb 2 to 13.2 Hz: amplitude of ±1 mm
bb 13.2 to 100 Hz: constant acceleration of 0.7 g.
WEEE directive European directive on managing the waste of electrical and electronic equipment.
(Waste of Electrical and Electronic Circuit breakers are not included in the list of concerned products.
Equipment) However, PowerPact products respect the WEEE directive.
Harmonics..............................................................................................
Current harmonics Non-linear loads cause harmonic currents that flow in the 50 Hz (or 60 Hz)
distribution system. Total harmonic current is the sum of sinusoidal AC currents for
which the rms values can be measured and broken down into:
bb the fundamental current at the 50/60 Hz frequency of the distribution system, with
an rms value of IH1
bb harmonic currents with whole, odd multiples (3, 5, 7, etc.) of the 50/60 Hz
frequency, called the third-order, fifth-order, etc. harmonics. For example, IH3, the
third-order harmonic at 150/180 Hz, IH5, the fifth-order harmonic at 250/300 Hz, etc.
The presence of harmonics in the system must be monitored and limited because
it results in temperature rise, currents in the neutral (caused by the third-order
harmonics and multiples), malfunctions of sensitive electronic devices, etc.
Micrologic E trip units take into account harmonics up to order 15 in the THDI and
THDU calculations.
Non-linear load Systems producing harmonics are present in all industrial, commercial and
residential sectors. Harmonics are caused by non-linear loads. A load is said to
be non-linear when the current drawn does not have the same waveform as the
supply voltage. Typically, loads using power electronics are non-linear.
Examples of non-linear loads include computers, rectifiers, variable-speed drives,
arc furnaces and fluorescent lighting.
Total harmonic distortion of current
(THDI)
THDI characterises the distortion of the current wave by harmonics.
It indicates the quantity of harmonics in the resulting waveform. It is expressed in
G
percent.
The higher the THDI, the more the current is distorted by harmonics.
THDI should remain below 10 %. Above that level, there is said to be harmonic
pollution that is considered severe when it rises above 50 %.
Total harmonic distortion of voltage THDU characterises the distortion of the voltage wave by harmonics.
(THDU) It indicates the quantity of harmonics in the resulting waveform. It is expressed in
percent.
The higher the THDU, the more the system voltage is distorted by harmonics. It is
advised not to exceed 5 % for low-voltage systems.
Voltage harmonics For each current harmonic IHk, there is a voltage harmonic UHk of the same order
k, where the resulting voltage is the sum of the two waves.
The voltage wave is therefore distorted with respect to the standard sinusoidal
wave.
Measurements......................................................................................
Overvoltage category Standard IEC 60664-1 stipulates that it is up to the user to select a measurement
(OVC - Overvoltage category) device with a sufficient overvoltage category, depending on the network voltage
IEC 60947-1. Annex H and the transient overvoltages likely to occur.
Four overvoltage categories define the field of use for a device.
bb Cat. I. Devices supplied by a SELV isolating transformer or a battery.
bb Cat. II. Residential distribution, handheld or laboratory tools and devices
connected to standardised 2P + earth electrical outlets (230 V).
bb Cat. III. Industrial distribution, fixed distribution circuits in buildings (main low
voltage switchboards, rising mains, elevators, etc.).
bb Cat. IV. Utility substations, overhead lines, certain industrial equipment.
Protection...............................................................................................
Instantaneous protection I (Ii) This protection supplements Isd. It provokes instantaneous opening of the device.
The pick-up is fixed (built-in). This value is always lower than the contact-repulsion
level.
Long-time protection L (Ir) Protection function where the Ir pick-up determines a protection curve similar to the
thermal-protection curve (inverse-time curve I2t). The curve is generally determined
on the basis of the Ir setting which corresponds to a theoretically infinite tripping
time (asymptote) and of the point at 6 Ir at which the tripping time depends on the
rating.
Magnetic protection (Im) Short-circuit protection provided by magnetic trip units (see this term). The pick-up
setting may be fixed.
Neutral protection (IN) The neutral is protected because all Circuit breaker poles are interrupted. The
setting may be that used for the phases or specific to the neutral, i.e. reduced
neutral (0.5 times the phase current) or OSN (oversized neutral) at 1.6 times the
phase current. For OSN protection, the maximum device setting is limited to 0.63
In.
Thermal protection (Ir) Overload protection provided by thermal trip units (see this term) using an inverse-
time curve (I2t).
Break contact "Control or auxiliary contact which is open when the main contacts of the
IEC 60947-1 mechanical switching device are closed and closed when they are open".
Make contact "Control or auxiliary contact which is closed when the main contacts of the
IEC 60947-1 mechanical switching device are closed and open when they are open".
Relay (electrical) "Device designed to produce sudden, predetermined changes in one or more
IEC 60947-1 electrical output circuits when certain conditions are fulfilled in the electrical input
circuits controlling the device".
Relay module with static output Output of a relay made up of a thyristor or triac electronic component. The low
interrupting capacity means that a power relay is required. This is the case for the
SDx outputs.
Switchgear ............................................................................................
Circuit breaker "Mechanical switching device, capable of making, carrying and breaking currents
IEC 60947-2 under normal circuit conditions and also making, carrying for a specified time
and breaking currents under specified abnormal circuit conditions such as those
of short circuit". Circuit breakers are the device of choice for protection against
overloads and short-circuits. Circuit breakers may, as is the case for PowerPact,
be suitable for isolation.
Circuit breaker utilisation category The standard defines two utilisation categories, A and B, depending on breaker
IEC 60947-2 discrimination with upstream breakers under short-circuit conditions.
bb Category A. Circuit breakers not specifically designed for discrimination
applications.
bb Category B. Circuit breakers specifically designed for discrimination, which
requires a short time-delay (which may be adjustable) and a rated short-time
withstand current in compliance with the standard.
PowerPact 125 to 600 circuit breakers are category A, however, by design,
they provide discrimination with downstream devices (see the Complementary
technical information guide).
Contactor "Mechanical switching device having only one position of rest, operated otherwise
IEC 60947-1 than by hand, capable of making, carrying and breaking currents under normal
circuit conditions including operating overload conditions". A contactor is
provided for frequent opening and closing of circuits under load or slight overload
conditions. It must be combined and coordinated with a protective device against
overloads and short-circuits, such as a circuit breaker.
Contactor utilisation categories The standard defines four utilisation categories, AC1, AC2, AC3 and AC4
IEC 60947-4-1 depending on the load and the control functions provided by the contactor. The
class depends on the current, voltage and power factor, as well as contactor
withstand capacity in terms of frequency of operation and endurance.
Current-limiting circuit breaker "A Circuit breaker with a break-time short enough to prevent the short-circuit
IEC 60947-2 current reaching its otherwise attainable peak value".
Disconnector "Mechanical switching device which, in the open position, complies with the
IEC 60947-3 requirements specified for the isolating function". A disconnector serves to isolate
upstream and downstream circuits. It is used to open or close circuits under
no-load conditions or with a negligible current level. It can carry the rated circuit
current and, for a specified time, the short-circuit current.
Trip units.................................................................................................
Magnetic release Release actuated by a coil or a lever. A major increase in the current (e.g. a short-
circuit) produces in the coil or the lever a change in the magnetic field that moves
a core. This trips the circuit breaker operating mechanism. Action is instantaneous.
The pick-up setting may be adjustable.
Reflex tripping PowerPact circuit breakers have a patented reflex-tripping system based on the
energy of the arc and that is independent of the other protection functions. It
operates extremely fast, before the other protection functions. It is an additional
safety function that operates before the others in the event of a very high short-
G
circuit.
Shunt trip (MX) This type of release operates when supplied with current. The MX release
provokes Circuit breaker opening when it receives a pulse-type or maintained
command.
Thermal-magnetic trip unit Trip unit combining thermal protection for overloads and magnetic protection.
Thermal release Release in which a bimetal strip is heated by the Joule effect. Above a
temperature-rise threshold that is a function of the current and its duration (I2t
curve = constant, which is representative of temperature rise in cables), the
bimetal strip bends and releases the Circuit breaker opening mechanism. The
pick-up setting may be adjustable.
Undervoltage release (MN) This type of release operates when the supply voltage drops below the set
minimum.
Multistandard
Circuit breakers from 15 to 600 A

PowerPact ™
Multistandard
The PowerPact Multistandard circuit breakers are designed to protect
electrical systems from damage caused by overloads and short
circuits. Multistandard circuit breakers are available with either
thermal-magnetic or Micrologic electronic trip units. L-frame circuit
breakers are available with Micrologic electronic trip unit.
Multistandard circuit breakers with thermal-magnetic trip units contain
individual thermal (overload) and instantaneous (short circuit) sensing
elements in each pole. The amperage ratings of the thermal trip
elements are calibrated at 104 °F (40 °C) free air ambient temperature.
Per the National Electric Code® (NEC®) and the Canadian Electrical
Code, standard circuit breakers may only be applied continuously at up
to 80 % of their rating. Circuit breakers rated for 100 % operation are
available but require specially-designed enclosures and 194 °F (90 °C)
rated wire.

DB413167.eps
All PowerPact Multistandard circuit breakers are equipped with dual-break rotating
contacts that reduce the amount of peak current during a short circuit fault. This
reduces the let-through currents and enhances equipment protection.
Reduced let-through currents
The moving contact has the shape of an elongated “S” and rotates around a
floating axis. The shape of the fixed and moving contacts are such that the
repelling forces appear as soon as the circuit reaches approximately 15 times In.
Due to the rotating movement, repulsion is rapid and the device greatly limits
short-circuit currents, whatever the interrupting level of the unit. The fault current
is extinguished before it can fully develop. Lower let-through currents provide less
peak energy, reducing the required bus bar bracing, lowering enclosure pressure,
and delivering improved series or combination ratings.
Internal operating mechanism
PowerPact Multistandard circuit breakers have an over-center toggle mechanism
providing quick-make, quick-break operation. The operating mechanism is also
trip-free, which allows tripping even when the circuit breaker handle is held in the
DB413168.eps
“ON” position.
Internal cross-bars provide common opening and closing of all poles with a single
operating handle.
All PowerPact circuit breakers have an integral push-to-trip button in the cover to
manually trip the circuit breaker. This should be used as part of a regular preventive
maintenance program.
Handle position indication
The circuit breaker handle can assume any of three positions, ON, tripped or OFF
as shown.
The center tripped position provides positive visual indication that the circuit
breaker has tripped.
The circuit breaker can be reset by first pushing the handle to the extreme “OFF”
Push-to-Trip position. Power can then be restored to the load by pushing the handle to the “ON”
position.
Current limiting
DB413169.eps
The interrupting rating is the highest current at rated voltage the circuit breaker is
designed to safely interrupt under standard test conditions. Circuit breakers must
be selected with interrupting ratings equal to or greater than the available short-
circuit current at the point where the circuit breaker is applied to the system (unless
it is a branch device in a series rated combination). Interrupting ratings are shown
on the front of the circuit breaker.
Reverse feeding of circuit breakers
The standard unit-mount Multistandard circuit breakers have sealed trip units and
may be reverse fed.

Maintenance Maintenance
For all FDM, in addition to the information displayed on the Micrologic trip unit LCD,
the FDM screen shows demand, power quality, and maximum/minimum ammeter
values along with histories and maintenance indicators.
Measurements function
Instantaneous RMS measurements
The Micrologic trip unit continuously displays the RMS value of the highest current
of the three phases and neutral (Imax). The navigation buttons can be used to
scroll through the main measurements.
In the event of a fault trip, the trip cause is displayed.
The Micrologic A trip unit measures phase, neutral, and ground fault currents.
Micrologic E trip units offer voltage, power, frequency, and energy metering in
addition to the measurements provided by Micrologic A trip units.
Maximum / Minimum ammeter
Every instantaneous measurement provided by Micrologic A/E trip units can be
associated with a maximum/minimum ammeter. The maximum for the highest
current of the three phases, neutral, and demand current can be reset using the
Micrologic trip unit keypad, FDM display unit, or the communication system.
Energy metering
The Micrologic E trip units also measures the energy consumed since the last reset
of the meter. The active energy meter can be reset using the Micrologic trip unit
keypad, the FDM display unit, or the communication system.
Demand and maximum demand values
Micrologic E trip units also calculate demand current and power values. These
calculations can be made using a block or sliding interval that can be set from five to
sixty minutes in steps of one minute. The window can be synchronised with a signal
sent through the communication system. Whatever the calculation method, the
calculated values can be recovered on a PC through the communication network.
Ordinary spreadsheet software can be used to provide trend curves and forecasts
based on this data. They provide a basis for load shedding and reconnection
operations used to adjust consumption to the subscribed power.
Power quality
The Micrologic E trip unit calculates power quality indicators taking into account the
presence of harmonics up to the fifteenth harmonic, including the total harmonic
distortion (THD) of current and voltage.

Modbus principle
The Modbus RS 485 (RTU protocol) system is an open bus on which
communicating Modbus devices (Compact NS with Modbus COM, Power Meter
PM700, PM800, Sepam, Vigilohm, Compact NSX, etc.) are installed. All types of
PLCs and microcomputers may be connected to the bus.
Addresses
The Modbus communication parameters (address, baud rate, parity) are entered
using the keypad on the Micrologic E. For a switch-disconnector, it is necessary to
use the Electrical Asset Manager or RSU (Remote Setting Utility) Micrologic utility.
Number of devices
The maximum number of devices that may be connected to the Modbus bus
depends on the type of device (Compact with Modbus COM, PM700, PM800,
Sepam, Vigilohm, Compact NSX, etc.), the baud rate (19200 is recommended), the
volume of data exchanged and the desired response time. The RS 485 physical
layer offers up to 32 connection points on the bus (1 master, 31 slaves).
A fixed device requires only one connection point (communication module on the
device). A drawout device uses two connection points (communication modules on
the device and on the chassis).
The number must never exceed 31 fixed devices or 15 drawout devices.
Length of bus
The maximum recommended length for the Modbus bus is 1200 meters.
Bus power source
A 24 V DC power supply is required (less than 20 % ripple, insulation class II).
Ethernet principle
Ethernet is a data link and physical layer protocol defined by IEEE 802 10 and 100
Mbps specifications that connects computer or other Ethernet devices. Ethernet is
an asynchronous Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision detection (referred
as CSMA/CD) protocol. Carrier Sense means that the hosts can detect whether
the medium (coaxial cable) is idle or busy. Multiple Access means that multiple
hosts can be connected to the common medium. Collision Detection means a
host detects whether its transmission has collided with the transmission of another
host (or hosts). IFE Ethernet interface can be connected to a PC or a laptop over
Ethernet. The maximum length of Ethernet cable is 100 meters. IFE Ethernet
interface + gateway provides a Modbus TCP/IP gateway over Ethernet to enable
Modbus TCP communication from a Modbus TCP master to any Modbus slave
devices connected to it. The maximum active Modbus TCP client connection is
twelve.
IFE Ethernet interface has an embedded web server (web page).
The Modbus RS 485 (RTU protocol) system is an open bus on which
communicating Modbus devices (Compact NS with Modbus COM, Power Meter
PM700, PM800, Sepam, Vigilohm, Compact NSX, etc.) are installed. All types of
PLCs and microcomputers may be connected to the bus.

This module receives the signal from the Micrologic electronic trip unit through an
optical link and makes it available on the terminal block. The signal is cleared when
the circuit breaker is closed.
These outputs can be reprogrammed to be assigned to other types of tripping or
alarm (see page A-56).
The SDx module may be used in 400 Hz systems for voltages from 24 to 440 V.
The SD2 output, available on all Micrologic trip units, corresponds to the overload-

bb Continuous duty rated coil.
Undervoltage trip (MN)
bb Trips the circuit breaker when the control voltage drops below a tripping
threshold.
bb Drops out between 35 % and 70 % of the rated voltage.
bb Continuous duty rated coil.
bb Circuit breaker closing is possible only if the voltage exceeds 85 % of the rated
voltage. If an undervoltage condition exists, operation of the closing mechanism
of the circuit breaker will not permit the main contacts to touch, even momentarily.
This is commonly called “Kiss Free”.
Installation and connection
bb Accessories are common to H-, J-, and L-frame circuit breakers and snap into
cavities under the front accessory cover of the circuit breaker.
bb Each terminal may be connected by one 1.0 - 2.5 mm2 (18 - 14 AWG) stranded
copper wire.
Standards
bb The circuit breaker must be reset locally after being tripped by shunt trip (MX) or
undervoltage trip (MN).
bb Tripping by the shunt trip or undervoltage trip has priority over manual (or motor
operator) closing; in the presence of a standing trip order such an action does not
result in any closing, even temporarily, of the main contacts.
bb Endurance: 50 % of the rated mechanical endurance of the circuit breaker.

General rules
When installing a circuit breaker, minimum distances (safety clearances) must
be maintained between the device and panels, bars and other protection devices
installed nearby. These distances, which depend on the voltage, are defined by
tests carried out in accordance with UL standards.
If installation is not checked by type tests, it is also necessary to:
bb use insulated bars for circuit-breaker connections
bb segregate the busbars using phase barriers.
For PowerPact Multistandard devices, terminal shields and interphase barriers are
recommended and may be mandatory depending on the operating voltage of the
device and type of installation (unit-mount, drawout, etc.).
Power connections
The table below indicates the connection requirements for PowerPact
Multistandard devices to ensure insulation of live parts for the various types of
connection.
bb Unit-mount devices with front connection (FC) or rear connection (RC).
bb Plug-in or drawout devices.
Connection accessories such as crimp lugs, terminal extensions (straight, right-
angle, double-L and 45°) and spreaders are supplied with interphase barriers. Long
terminal shields provide a degree of protection of IP40 (ingress).

FDM121 module and Modbus interface
The ULP (Universal Logic Plug) wiring system used by H-, J- and L-frame circuit
breakers for connection through the Modbus network requires neither tools nor
settings. The prefabricated cables are used for both data transfer and distribution
of 24 V DC power. Connectors on each component are identified by ULP symbols,
ensuring total compatibility between each component.
Available cords
All connections are made with prefabricated cords:
bb NSX cord for connection of the internal terminal block to the Modbus interface or
the FDM 121 display via an RJ45 connector. The cord is available in three lengths,
0.35 m, 1.3 m and 3 m
bb ULP cords with RJ45 connectors at each end for the other connections between
components. The cord is available in six lengths, 0.3 m, 0.6 m, 1 m, 2 m, 3 m and
5 m. For greater distances, two cords can be interconnected using the RJ45
female/female accessory.
Maximum length of 10 m between 2 modules and 30 m in all.
A line terminator must be fitted to all components with an unused RJ45 connector.

For each major section (Accessories, Switchgear, etc.) and for each item (Adapter
for plug-in base, Connection terminal, etc.), this glossary provides:
b the reference standard
b the standardised IEC symbol
b the definition.
Text in quotation marks is drawn from the standards.
Accessories ..........................................................................................................
Adapter for plug-in base The adapter is a plastic component that can be installed upstream and/or
downstream of the plug-in base and enables use of all the connection accessories of
the fixed device.
Bare-cable connector Conducting part of the circuit breaker intended for connection to power circuits. On
Powerpact, it is an aluminium part that screws to the connection terminals of the
circuit breaker. There are one or more holes (single or multiple cable connector) for
the ends of bare cables.
Connection terminals Flat copper surface, linked to the conducting parts of the circuit breaker and to which
power connections are made using bars, connectors or lugs.
Spreaders Set of three (3P device) flat, conducting parts made of aluminium. They are screwed
to the circuit-breaker terminals to increase the pitch between poles.
Degree of protection (IP) Defines device protection against the penetration of solid objects and liquids, using
IEC 60529 two digits specified in standard IEC 60259. Each digit corresponds to a level of
protection, where 0 indicates no protection.
bb First digit (0 to 6): protection against penetration of solid foreign objects.
1 corresponds to protection against objects with a diameter > 50 mm, 6 corresponds
to total protection against dust.
bb Second digit (0 to 8): protection against penetration of liquids (water).
1 corresponds to protection against falling drops of water (condensation),
8 corresponds to continuous immersion.
The enclosure of Powerpact circuit breakers provides a minimum of IP40 (protection
against objects > 1 mm) and can reach IP56 (protection against dust and powerful
water jets) depending on the installation conditions.
Degree of protection against Defines the aptitude of an object to resist mechanical impacts on all sides, indicated
external mechanical impacts (IK) by a number from 0 to 10 (standard IEC 62262). Each number corresponds to the
impact energy (in Joules) that the object can handle according to a standardised
procedure.
0 corresponds to no protection, 1 to an impact energy of 0.14 Joules, 10 to an impact
energy of 20 Joules. Powerpact provide IK07 (2 Joules) and can provide IK08
(5 Joules) depending on the installation conditions.
Durability The term "durability" is used in the standards instead of "endurance" to express the
expectancy of the number of operating cycles which can be performed by the
equipment before repair or replacement of parts. The term "endurance" is used for
specifically defined operational performance.
Electrical durability With respect to its resistance to electrical wear, equipment is characterised by the
IEC 60947-1 number of on-load operating cycles, corresponding to the service conditions given in
the relevant product standard, which can be made without re replacement.
Frame size "A term designating a group of circuit breakers, the external physical dimensions of
which are common to a range of current ratings. Frame size is expressed in amperes
corresponding to the highest current rating of the group. Within a frame size, the
width may vary according to the number of poles. This definition does not imply
dimensional standardization."
Powerpact has three frame sizes covering 150 to 250 A and 400 to 600 A.
Making capacity Value of prospective making current that a switching device is capable of making at a
stated voltage under prescribed conditions of use and behaviour. Reference is
generally made to the short-circuit making capacity Icm.
Maximum break time Maximum time after which breaking is effective, i.e. the contacts separated and the
current completely interrupted.
Mechanical durability With respect to its resistance to mechanical wear, equipment is characterised by the
number of no-load operating cycles which can be effected before it becomes
necessary to service or replace any mechanical parts.
Non-tripping time This is the minimum time during which the protective device does not operate in spite
of pick-up overrun, if the duration of the overrun does not exceed the corresponding
voluntary time delay.
Pollution degree "Conventional number based on the amount of conductive or hygroscopic dust,
of environment conditions ionized gas or salt and on the relative humidity and its frequency of occurrence,
resulting in hygroscopic absorption or condensation of moisture leading to reduction
IEC 60947-1 in dielectric strength and/or surface resistivity". Standard IEC 60947-1 distinguishes
IEC 60664-1 four pollution degrees.
bb Degree 1. No pollution or only dry, non-conductive pollution occurs.
bb Degree 2. Normally, only non-conductive pollution occurs. Occasionally, however,
a temporary conductivity caused by condensation may be expected.
bb Degree 3. Conductive pollution occurs, or dry, non-conductive pollution occurs
which becomes conductive due to condensation.
bb Degree 4. The pollution generates persistent conductivity caused, for instance, by
conductive dust or by rain or snow. Powerpact meets degree 3, which corresponds
to industrial applications.
Prospective short-circuit current Current that would flow through the poles if they remained fully closed during the
short-circuit.
Rated current (In) This is the current that the device can carry continuously with the contacts closed
and without abnormal temperature rise.
Rated impulse withstand voltage "The peak value of an impulse voltage of prescribed form and polarity which the
(Uimp) equipment is capable of withstanding without failure under specified conditions of
test and to which the values of the clearances are referred. The rated impulse
withstand voltage of an equipment shall be equal to or higher than the values stated
for the transient overvoltages occurring in the circuit in which the equipment is fitted".
Rated insulation voltage (Ui) "The rated insulation voltage of an equipment is the value of voltage to which
dielectric tests and creepage distances are referred. In no case shall the maximum
value of the rated operational voltage exceed that of the rated insulation voltage".
Rated operational current (Ie) "A rated operational current of an equipment is stated by the manufacturer and takes
into account the rated operational voltage, the rated frequency, the rated duty, the
utilization category and the type of protective enclosure, if appropriate".
Rated operational voltage (Ue) "A value of voltage which, combined with a rated operational current, determines the
application of the equipment and to which the relevant tests and the utilisation
categories are referred. For multipole equipment, it is generally stated as the voltage
between phases".
This is the maximum continuous voltage at which the equipment may be used.
Rated short-time withstand current "Value of short-time withstand current, assigned to the equipment by the
(Icw) manufacturer, that the equipment can carry without damage, under the test
conditions specified in the relevant product standard". Generally expressed in kA for
0.5, 1 or 3 seconds. This is an essential characteristic for air circuit breakers. It is not
significant for moulded-case circuit breakers for which the design targets fast
opening and high limiting capacity.
Service breaking capacity (Ics) Expressed as a percentage of Icu, it provides an indication on the robustness of the
device under severe conditions. It is confirmed by a test with one opening and one
closing/opening at Ics, followed by a check that the device operates correctly at its
rated current, i.e. 50 cycles at In, where temperature rise remains within tolerances
and the protection system suffers no damage.
Short-circuit making capacity (Icm) Value indicating the capacity of the device to make and carry a high current without
repulsion of the contacts. It is expressed in kA peak.
Suitability for isolation This capability means that the circuit breaker meets the conditions below.
bb In the open position, it must withstand, without flashover between the upstream
and downstream contacts, the impulse voltage specified by the standard as a
function of the Uimp indicated on the device.
bb It must indicate contact position by one or more of the following systems:
vv position of the operating handle
vv separate mechanical indicator
vv visible break of the moving contacts
bb Leakage current between each pole, with the contacts open, at a test voltage of
1.1 x the rated operating voltage, must not exceed:
vv 0.5 mA per pole for new devices
vv 2 mA per pole for devices already subjected to normal switching operations
vv 6 mA, the maximum value that must never be exceeded.
bb It must not be possible to install padlocks unless the contacts are open. Locking in
the closed position is permissible for special applications. Powerpact complies with
this requirement by positive contact indication.
Suitable for isolation with positive Suitability for isolation is defined here by the mechanical reliability of the position
contact indication indicator of the operating mechanism, where:
bb the isolation position corresponds to the O (OFF) position
(see also Suitability for isolation, page bb the operating handle cannot indicate the "OFF" position unless the contacts are
G2) effectively open.
The other conditions for isolation must all be fulfilled:
bb locking in the open position is possible only if the contacts are effectively open
bb leakage currents are below the standardised limits
bb overvoltage impulse withstand between upstream and downstream connections.
Ultimate breaking capacity (Icu) Expressed in kA, it indicates the maximum breaking capacity of the circuit breaker. It
is confirmed by a test with one opening and one closing/opening at Icu, followed by a
check that the circuit is properly isolated. This test ensures user safety.
Communication......................................................................................................
Acti 9 Smartlink Ethernet Acti 9 Smartlink Ethernet collects data from Smartlink Modbus and transfers them
via the Ethernet network.
Acti 9 Smartlink Modbus Acti 9 Smartlink Modbus is used to transfer data from Acti 9 devices to a PLC or
monitoring system via the communication system: Modbus serial line.
BSCM The optional BSCM for Compact NSX is used to acquire device status indications
(Breaker status and control module) and control the communicating remote-control function. It includes a memory used to
manage the maintenance indicators. It serves as a converter between the analog
outputs of the device indication contacts (O/F, SD, SDE) and the digital
communicating functions.

performance and cost management.
Components..........................................................................................................
ASIC (Application Specific Integrated Integrated circuit designed, built and intended for a specific application. It carries out
Circuit) repetitive sequences of instructions engraved in the silicon chip. For that reason, it is
extremely reliable because it cannot be modified and is not affected by environment
conditions.
Micrologic trip units use an ASIC for the protection functions. The ASIC cyclically
polls the network status at a high frequency, using the values supplied by captors.
Comparison with the settings forms the basis for orders to the electronic trip units.
Controls.................................................................................................................
Communicating motor mechanism For Powerpact remote control via the communication system, a communicating
motor mechanism is required. Except for the communication function, it is identical to
the standard motor mechanism module and connects to and controlled by the BSCM
module.
CNOMO machine-tool rotary handle Handle used for machine-tool control enclosures and providing IP54 and IK08.
Direct rotary handle This is an optional control handle for the circuit breaker. It has the same three
positions I (ON), O (OFF) and TRIPPED as the toggle control. It provides IP40, IK07
and the possibility, due to its extended travel, of using early-make and early-break
contacts. It maintains suitability for isolation and offers optional locking using a
keylock or a padlock.
Emergency off In a circuit equipped with a circuit breaker, this function is carried out by an opening
mechanism using an MN undervoltage release or an MX shunt release in
conjunction with an emergency off button.
Extended rotary handle Rotary handle with an extended shaft to control devices installed at the rear of
switchboards. It has the same characteristics as direct rotary handles. It offers
multiple locking possibilities using a keylock, a padlock or a door interlock.
Failsafe remote tripping Remote tripping is carried out by an opening mechanism using an MN undervoltage
release in conjunction with an emergency off button. If power is lost, the protection
device opens the circuit breaker.
Discrimination / Cascading....................................................................................
Cascading Cascading implements the current-limiting capacity of a circuit breaker, making it
possible to install downstream circuit breakers with lower performance levels.
The upstream circuit breaker reduces any high short-circuit currents. This makes it
possible to install downstream circuit breakers with breaking capacities less than the
prospective short-circuit current at their point of installation.
The main advantage of cascading is to reduce the overall cost of switchgear.
Because the current is limited throughout the circuit downstream of the limiting circuit
breaker, cascading applies to all the devices located downstream.
Current discrimination Discrimination based on the difference between the current-protection settings of the
circuit breakers. The difference in settings between two successive circuit breakers
in a circuit must be sufficient to allow the downstream breaker to clear the fault
before the upstream breaker trips.
Discrimination Discrimination is ensured between upstream and downstream circuit breakers if,
when a fault occurs, only the circuit breaker placed immediately upstream of the fault
trips.
Discrimination is the key to ensuring the continuity of service of an installation.
Energy discrimination This function is specific to Powerpact and supplements the other types of
discrimination.
Time discrimination Discrimination based on the difference between the time-delay settings of the circuit
breakers. The upstream trip unit is delayed to provide the downstream breaker the
time required to clear the fault.
Total discrimination Total discrimination is ensured between upstream and downstream circuit breakers
if, for all fault values, from overloads up to solid short-circuits, only the downstream
circuit breaker trips and the upstream circuit breaker remains closed.
Zone selective interlocking (ZSI) A number of circuit breakers with Micrologic electronic trip units are interconnected
one after another by a pilot wire. In the event of a short-time or ground fault:
bb in the absence of information from downstream, the circuit breaker directly
concerned by the fault (i.e. located just upstream of the fault) shifts to the shortest
time delay and sends a signal upstream
bb the upstream device, on receiving the signal from the downstream device,
maintains its normal time delay.
In this manner, the fault is cleared rapidly by the circuit breaker closest to the fault.
Environment...........................................................................................................
EMC (Electromagnetic compatibility) EMC is the capacity of a device not to disturb its environment during operation
(emitted electromagnetic disturbances) and to operate in a disturbed environment
(electromagnetic disturbances affecting the device). The standards define various
classes for the types of disturbances. Micrologic trip units comply with annexes F
and J in standard IEC IE60947-2.
Power loss The flow of current through the circuit-breaker poles produces Joule-effect losses
Pole resistance caused by the resistance of the poles.
Product environmental profile (PEP) An assessment on the impact of the construction and use of a product on the
LCA: Life-cycle assessment environment, in compliance with standard ISO 14040, Environmental management,
life-cycle assessment (LCA), principles and framework.
ISO 14040 For Powerpact, this assessment is carried out using the standardised EIME
(Environmental Impact and Management Explorer) software, which makes possible
comparisons between the products of different manufacturers.
It includes all stages, i.e. manufacture, distribution, use and end of life, with set
usage assumptions:
bb use over 20 years at a percent load of 80 % for 14 hours per day and 20 % for ten
hours
bb according to the European electrical-energy model.
It provides the information presented below.
bb Materials making up the product: composition and proportions, with a check to
make sure no substances forbidden by the RoHS directive are included.
bb Manufacture: on Schneider Electric production sites that have set up an
environmental management system certified ISO 14001.
bb Distribution: packaging in compliance with the 94/62/EC packaging directive
(optimised volumes and weights) and optimised distribution flows via local centres.
bb Use: no aspects requiring special precautions for use. Power lost through Joule
effect in Watts (W) must be < 0.02 % of total power flowing through the circuit
breaker. Based on the above assumptions, annual consumption from 95 to 200 kWh.
bb End of life: products dismantled or crushed. For Powerpact, 81 % of materials can
be recycled using standard recycling techniques. Less than 2 % of total weight
requires special recycling.
Product environmental profile (PEP) Environmental indicators are also frequently used for the PEP (sheet available on
Environmental indicators request for Powerpact):
bb Depletion of natural resources
bb Depletion of energy
bb Depletion of water
bb Potential for atmospheric warming (greenhouse effect)
bb Potential for stratospheric ozone depletion
bb Creation of atmospheric ozone (ozone layer)
bb Acidification of air (acid rain)
bb Production of hazardous waste.
RoHS directive European directive 2002/95/EC dated 27 January 2003 aimed at reducing or
(Restriction of Hazardous substances) eliminating the use of hazardous substances. The manufacturer must attest to
compliance, without third-party certification. Circuit breakers are not included in the
list of concerned products, which are essentially consumer products.
That not withstanding, Schneider Electric decided to comply with the RoHS directive.
Powerpact products are designed in compliance with RoHS and do not contain
(above the authorised levels) lead, mercury, cadmium, hexavalent chromium or
flame retardants (polybrominated biphenyls PBB and polybrominated diphenyl ether
PBDE).
Safety clearances When installing a circuit breaker, minimum distances (safety clearances) must be
maintained between the device and panels, bars and other protection systems
installed nearby. These distances, which depend on the ultimate breaking capacity,
are defined by tests carried out in accordance with standard IEC 60947-2.
Temperature derating An ambient temperature varying significantly from 40 °C can modify operation of
magnetic or thermal-magnetic protection functions. It does not affect electronic trip
units. However, when electronic trip units are used in high-temperature situations, it
is necessary to check the settings to ensure that only the permissible current for the
given ambient temperature is let through.
Vibration withstand Circuit breakers are tested in compliance with standard IEC 60068-2-6 for the levels
IEC 60068-2-6 required by merchant-marine inspection organisations (Veritas, Lloyd's, etc.):
bb 2 to 13.2 Hz: amplitude of ±1 mm
bb 13.2 to 100 Hz: constant acceleration of 0.7 g.
WEEE directive European directive on managing the waste of electrical and electronic equipment.
(Waste of Electrical and Electronic Circuit breakers are not included in the list of concerned products.
However, Powerpact products respect the WEEE directive.
Equipment)
Harmonics.............................................................................................................
Current harmonics Non-linear loads cause harmonic currents that flow in the 50 Hz (or 60 Hz)
distribution system. Total harmonic current is the sum of sinusoidal AC currents for
which the rms values can be measured and broken down into:
bb the fundamental current at the 50/60 Hz frequency of the distribution system, with
an rms value of IH1
bb harmonic currents with whole, odd multiples (3, 5, 7, etc.) of the 50/60 Hz
frequency, called the third-order, fifth-order, etc. harmonics. For example, IH3, the
third-order harmonic at 150/180 Hz, IH5, the fifth-order harmonic at 250/300 Hz, etc.
The presence of harmonics in the system must be monitored and limited because it
results in temperature rise, currents in the neutral (caused by the third-order
harmonics and multiples), malfunctions of sensitive electronic devices, etc.
Micrologic E trip units take into account harmonics up to order 15 in the THDI and
THDU calculations.
Non-linear load Systems producing harmonics are present in all industrial, commercial and
residential sectors. Harmonics are caused by non-linear loads. A load is said to be
non-linear when the current drawn does not have the same waveform as the supply
voltage. Typically, loads using power electronics are non-linear.
Examples of non-linear loads include computers, rectifiers, variable-speed drives,
arc furnaces and fluorescent lighting.
Total harmonic distortion of current THDI characterises the distortion of the current wave by harmonics.
(THDI) It indicates the quantity of harmonics in the resulting waveform. It is expressed in
percent.
The higher the THDI, the more the current is distorted by harmonics.
THDI should remain below 10 %. Above that level, there is said to be harmonic
pollution that is considered severe when it rises above 50 %.
Total harmonic distortion of voltage THDU characterises the distortion of the voltage wave by harmonics.
(THDU) It indicates the quantity of harmonics in the resulting waveform. It is expressed in
percent.
The higher the THDU, the more the system voltage is distorted by harmonics. It is
advised not to exceed 5 % for low-voltage systems.
Measurements.......................................................................................................
Contact wear Each time Powerpact opens, the Micrologic 5/6 trip unit measures the interrupted
current and increments the contact-wear indicator as a function of the interrupted
current, according to test results stored in memory.
Current transformer with It is made up of a coil wound around an iron frame through which a power busbar
iron-core toroid runs. The current flowing in the bar, on passing through the sensor, induces a
magnetic field that reverses for each half period. This variation in the field in turn
creates an induced current in the coil. This current is proportional to the current
flowing in the bar. It is sufficient to supply the measurement electronics.
The disadvantage of iron-core measurement current transformers (CT) is that they
rapidly saturate for currents > 10 In.
Current transformer with Rogowski It is made up of a coil without an iron frame, through which a power busbar runs. The
toroid or air-core CT output voltage at the coil terminals is proportional to the current flowing through the
bar. The result is a current transformer (CT) with a voltage output. The advantage is
that it never saturates whatever the primary current and thus enables measurement
of high currents. The output is however a very low current that is too low to supply the
measurement electronics.
For Micrologic, Rogowski CTs measure the current and a second CT, with an iron
core, provides the electrical supply.
Demand current, demand Average of the instantaneous current or power values over an adjustable fixed or
power and peak values sliding time interval. The highest value observed over the time interval is the peak
value. The time interval runs from the last reset.
Instantaneous current True rms value of the current measured by the current transformers over a sliding
time interval. Available on Micrologic 5/6 E.
Instantaneous voltage True rms value of the voltage measured by the voltage sensors over a sliding time
interval. Available on Micrologic 5/6 E.
Maximeters/minimeters Micrologic 5/6 E can record the minimum and maximum values of electrical
parameters over set time periods.
Overvoltage category Standard IEC 60664-1 stipulates that it is up to the user to select a measurement
(OVC - Overvoltage category) device with a sufficient overvoltage category, depending on the network voltage and
the transient overvoltages likely to occur.
IEC 60947-1. Annex H Four overvoltage categories define the field of use for a device.
bb Cat. I. Devices supplied by a SELV isolating transformer or a battery.
bb Cat. II. Residential distribution, handheld or laboratory tools and devices
connected to standardised 2P + earth electrical outlets (230 V).
bb Cat. III. Industrial distribution, fixed distribution circuits in buildings (main low
voltage switchboards, rising mains, elevators, etc.).
bb Cat. IV. Utility substations, overhead lines, certain industrial equipment.
Percent load Percentage of current flowing through the circuit breaker with respect to its rated
current. Micrologic 6 E-M offers this information and can sum it over the total
operating time to provide the load profile for the following ranges, 0 to 49 %,
50 to 79 %, 80 to 89 % and u 90 %.
Phase sequence The order in which the phases are connected (L1, L2, L3 or L1, L3, L2) determines
the direction of rotation for three-phase asynchronous motors. Micrologic 6 E-M trip
units provide this information.
Power and energy metering The digital electronics in Micrologic 5/6 E calculate the instantaneous power levels,
(consumption) apparent (S in kVA), active (P in kW) and (Q in kV), and integrate over a time interval
to determine the corresponding energies (kVAh, kWh kvarh). Calculations are for
each phase and for the total.
Time-stamped histories Micrologic trip units store information on events (e.g. alarms and their cause) that are
time-stamped to within a millisecond.
Protection...............................................................................................................
Ground-fault protection G (Ig) Protection function specific to electronic circuit breakers, symbolised by G (Ground).
This protection can calculate high-threshold residual earth-leakage currents (in the
order of tens of Amperes) on the basis of phase-current measurements. Micrologic
5/6 offers this protection function with adjustable pick-up Ig and time delay.
Instantaneous protection I (Ii) This protection supplements Isd. It provokes instantaneous opening of the device.
The pick-up may be adjustable or fixed (built-in). This value is always lower than the
contact-repulsion level.
Long-time protection L (Ir) Protection function where the adjustable Ir pick-up determines a protection curve
similar to the thermal-protection curve (inverse-time curve I2t). The curve is generally
determined on the basis of the Ir setting which corresponds to a theoretically infinite
tripping time (asymptote) and of the point at 6 Ir at which the tripping time depends
on the rating.
Magnetic protection (Im) Short-circuit protection provided by magnetic trip units (see this term). The pick-up
setting may be fixed or adjustable.
Neutral protection (IN) The neutral is protected because all circuit-breaker poles are interrupted. The setting
may be that used for the phases or specific to the neutral, i.e. reduced neutral (0.5
times the phase current) or OSN (oversized neutral) at 1.6 times the phase current.
For OSN protection, the maximum device setting is limited to 0.63 In.
Residual-current earth-leakage Protection provided by Vigi modules, in which the residual-current toroids directly
protection (IΔn) detect low-threshold earth-leakage currents (in the order of tens of mA) caused by
insulation faults.
Short-delay protection S (Isd) Protection function specific to electronic circuit breakers, symbolised by S (Short
delay or short time). This protection supplements thermal protection. The reaction
time is very short, but has a slight time delay to enable discrimination with the
upstream device. The short-delay pick-up Isd is adjustable from approximately 1.5 to
10 Ir.
Short-delay protection with fixed Short-delay protection, but with a fixed time delay. This function is available on
time delay So (Isd) Micrologic 2. It is symbolised by So. It ensures discrimination with downstream
devices.
Thermal protection (Ir) Overload protection provided by thermal trip units (see this term) using an inverse-
time curve (I2t).
Break contact "Control or auxiliary contact which is open when the main contacts of the mechanical
IEC 60947-1 switching device are closed and closed when they are open".
Make contact "Control or auxiliary contact which is closed when the main contacts of the
IEC 60947-1 mechanical switching device are closed and open when they are open".
Relay (electrical) "Device designed to produce sudden, predetermined changes in one or more
IEC 60947-1 electrical output circuits when certain conditions are fulfilled in the electrical input
circuits controlling the device".
Relay module with static output Output of a relay made up of a thyristor or triac electronic component. The low
interrupting capacity means that a power relay is required. This is the case for the
SDx outputs.
Switchgear ............................................................................................................
Circuit breaker "Mechanical switching device, capable of making, carrying and breaking currents
IEC 60947-2 under normal circuit conditions and also making, carrying for a specified time and
breaking currents under specified abnormal circuit conditions such as those of short
circuit". Circuit breakers are the device of choice for protection against overloads
and short-circuits. Circuit breakers may, as is the case for Powerpact, be suitable for
isolation.
Contactor "Mechanical switching device having only one position of rest, operated otherwise
IEC 60947-1 than by hand, capable of making, carrying and breaking currents under normal
circuit conditions including operating overload conditions". A contactor is provided for
frequent opening and closing of circuits under load or slight overload conditions. It
must be combined and coordinated with a protective device against overloads and
short-circuits, such as a circuit breaker.
Contactor utilisation categories The standard defines four utilisation categories, AC1, AC2, AC3 and AC4 depending
IEC 60947-4-1 on the load and the control functions provided by the contactor. The class depends
on the current, voltage and power factor, as well as contactor withstand capacity in
terms of frequency of operation and endurance.
Current-limiting circuit breaker "A circuit-breaker with a break-time short enough to prevent the short-circuit current
IEC 60947-2 reaching its otherwise attainable peak value".
Disconnector "Mechanical switching device which, in the open position, complies with the
IEC 60947-3 requirements specified for the isolating function". A disconnector serves to isolate
upstream and downstream circuits. It is used to open or close circuits under no-load
conditions or with a negligible current level. It can carry the rated circuit current and,
for a specified time, the short-circuit current.
Long-start protection (Ilong) An overly long start means the current drawn remains too high or too low for too long,
with respect to the starting current. In all cases, the load cannot be driven and the
start must be interrupted. The resulting temperature rise must be taken into account
before restarting.
Phase-unbalance or phase- loss This protection function steps in if the current values and/or the unbalance in the
protection (Iunbal) three phases supplying the motor exceeds tolerances. Currents should be equal and
displacement should be one third of a period. Phase loss is a special case of phase
unbalance.
Starting time Time after which the motor ceases to draw the starting current and falls back to the
operating current Ir (y In).
Thermal image of the rotor The thermal image models the thermal behaviour of a motor rotor and stator, taking
and stator into account temperature rise caused by overloads or successive starts, and the
cooling constants. For each motor power rating, the algorithm takes into account a
theoretical amount of iron and copper which modifies the cooling constants.
Thermal protection Protection against overcurrents following an inverse time curve I2t = constant, which
defines the maximum permissible temperature rise for the motor.
Tripping occurs after a time delay that decreases with increasing current.
Trip class The trip class determines the trip curve of the thermal protection device for a motor
IEC 60947-4-1 feeder. The standard defines trip classes 5, 10, 20 and 30. These classes are the
maximum durations, in seconds, for motor starting with a starting current of 7.2 Ir,
where Ir is the thermal setting indicated on the motor rating plate.
Under-load protection (Iund) This function steps in when the driven load is too low. It detects a set minimum phase
current which signals incorrect operation of the driven machine. In the example of a
pump, under-load protection detects when the pump is no longer primed.
Trip units................................................................................................................
Electronic trip unit (Micrologic) Trip unit that continuously measures the current flowing through each phase and the
neutral if it exists. For Micrologic, the measurements are provided by built-in current
sensors linked to an analog-digital converter with a high sampling frequency. The
measurement values are continuously compared by the ASIC to the protection
settings. If a setting is overrun, a Mitop release trips the circuit-breaker operating
mechanism.
This type of trip unit offers much better pick-up and delay setting accuracy than
thermal-magnetic trip units. It also provides a wider range of protection functions.
Magnetic release Release actuated by a coil or a lever. A major increase in the current (e.g. a
short-circuit) produces in the coil or the lever a change in the magnetic field that
moves a core. This trips the circuit breaker operating mechanism. Action is
instantaneous. The pick-up setting may be adjustable.
Reflex tripping Powerpact circuit breakers have a patented reflex-tripping system based on the
energy of the arc and that is independent of the other protection functions. It
operates extremely fast, before the other protection functions. It is an additional
safety function that operates before the others in the event of a very high short-
circuit.
Shunt release (MX) This type of release operates when supplied with current. The MX release provokes
circuit-breaker opening when it receives a pulse-type or maintained command.
Thermal-magnetic trip unit Trip unit combining thermal protection for overloads and magnetic protection.
Thermal release Release in which a bimetal strip is heated by the Joule effect. Above a temperature-
rise threshold that is a function of the current and its duration (I2t curve = constant,
which is representative of temperature rise in cables), the bimetal strip bends and
releases the circuit-breaker opening mechanism. The pick-up setting may be
adjustable.
Undervoltage release (MN) This type of release operates when the supply voltage drops below the set minimum.
