14.4.7.3 Remaining life of circuit breaker
GUID-C347406A-2B6F-42BD-B70B-51489AB51EAE v12
The Remaining life of circuit breaker subfunction is used to give an indication on
the wear and tear of the circuit breaker. Every time the breaker operates, the life of
the circuit breaker reduces due to wear. The breaker wear depends on the
interrupted current. The remaining life of the breaker is estimated from the circuit
breaker trip curve provided by the manufacturer. The remaining life is decreased by
at least one when the circuit breaker is opened. The operation of the remaining life
of circuit breaker subfunction is described in figure
296 .

Circuit breaker remaining life estimation
If the interrupted current is less than the rated operating current set using the
RatedOperCurr setting, the remaining operations of the breaker are reduced by one
operation. If the interrupted current is more than the rated fault current set using the
RatedFltCurr setting, the remaining operations of the circuit breaker are reduced
by the set OperNoRated divided by the set OperNoFault value. If the tripping
current is between these two values, the remaining life of the circuit breaker is
calculated based on the maintenance curve equation given by the manufacturer.
The
OperNoRated parameter sets the number of operations the breaker can perform
at the rated current. The OperNoFault parameter sets the number of operations the
breaker can perform at the rated fault current.
Alarm limit check
When the remaining life of a circuit breaker phase drops below the
CBLifeAlmLevel setting, the life alarm
CBLIFEAL
is activated.
It is possible to deactivate the
CBLIFEAL
alarm signal by activating the binary
input
