To ensure a continuous supply of electrical power, certain

installations are connected to two sources:
b a normal source N
b a replacement source R used to supply the installation
when the normal source is unavailable.

A source-changeover system switches the load between

Interlocking of two Compact NS circuit breakers on a base
these two sources. It can be automated to manage transfers
plate according to external conditions. A source-changeover system
includes two or three circuit breakers or switch-disconnectors.

With Interpact INS, Compact NS and Masterpact NT and NW,

new installation solutions are available to optimise the size of

the switchboard and simplify installation.

Manual source-changeover system

87921 RCD

This is the most simple type. It is controlled manually by an operator and

consequently the time required to switch from the normal to the replacement
source can vary.
A manual source-changeover system is made up of two or three mechanically
interlocked manually-operated circuit breakers or switch-disconnectors.

Remote-operated source-changeover system

This is the most commonly employed system for devices with high ratings (above
400 A).No human intervention is required. Transfer from the normal to the
replacement source is controlled electrically.
A remote-controlled source-changeover system is made up of two or three circuit
breakers or switch-disconnectors linked by an electrical interlocking system that
may have different configurations. In addition, a mechanical interlocking system
protects against electrical malfunctions or incorrect manual operations.

Automatic source-changeover systems

An automatic controller may be added to a remote-operated source-changeover
system for automatic source control according to programmable operating modes.
This solution ensures optimum energy management:
Commercial and service sector: b transfer to a replacement source according to external requirements
b operating rooms in hospitals b management of power sources
b safety systems for tall buildings b regulation
b computer rooms (banks, insurance companies, etc.) b emergency source replacement, etc.
b lighting systems in shopping centres…
The automatic controller may be fitted with an option for communication with a
supervisor.

Interlocking of two or three toggle-controlled devices

E87481

Two devices can be interlocked using this system. Two identical interlocking systems
can be used to interlock three devices installed side by side, in which case one
device is in the ON position and the two others are in the OFF position. Devices must
all have the same configuration, i.e. fixed, plug-in, withdrawable or drawout.
The system is locked using one or two padlocks (shackle diameter 5 to 8 mm).
Two interlocking system models are available for:
b Compact NS100 to 250
b Compact NS400 to 630.

Communications option for Compact NS and Masterpact NT/NW

E87490

The COM communications option is compatible with all the source-changeover

systems for Compact NS100 to 1600 and Masterpact NT/NW circuit breakers and
switch-disconnectors.
It can be used to remote status information. It may not be used to operate the
circuit breakers (only possible locally on the front of the UA150 controller).
Depending on the trip units or control units used, the COM option may also be
used to analyse distribution-system parameters required for the operating and
maintenance assistance.

Downstream coupling accessory

E72586

This accessory simplifies connection to bars and cables with lugs.

It may be used to couple two circuit breakers (Compact NS100 to 630) or switch-
disconnectors (Interpact INS/INV100 to 630) of the same size.
Pitch between outgoing terminals:
b Interpact INS250 and INV100 to 250: 35 mm
b Interpact INS/INV320 to 630: 52.5 mm
b Compact NS100 to 250: 35 mm
b Compact NS400 to 630: 52.5 mm.

Connection and insulation accessories

The coupling accessory can be fitted with the same connection and insulation
accessories as the circuit breakers and switch-disconnectors.
