Section 4: protection settings

Gtntral

Before placing any circuit breaker in operation, set each trip 

unit protection setting to the values specified by the engineer 

responsible for the installation. The number of settings that must be 

made is determined by the type of protection supplied by each unit, 

as illustrated in 

Figurt 16

 through 

Figurt 27

. Each setting is made 

by turning a rotary switch, using a small screwdriver. The selected 

setting for each adjustment appears on the trip unit label.
The installed rating plug must match the current sensors that 

establish the maximum continuous current rating of the circuit 

breaker (I

n

). Instantaneous and ground current settings are defined 

in multiples of (I

n

).

To illustrate the effect of each protection curve setting, simulated 

time-current curves are pictured on the face of the trip unit. Each 

rotary switch is located nearest the portion of the simulated time-

current curve that it controls. Should an automatic trip occur (as a 

result of the current exceeding the pre-selected value), the LED in 

the appropriate segment of the simulated time-current curve will 

light red, indicating the reason for the trip.
The available settings, along with the effects of changing the 

settings, are given in 

Figurt 30

 through 

Figurt 37

. Sample settings 

are represented in boxes  2 .

LNng dtlay currtno stooing

There are eight available long delay settings, as illustrated in 

Figurt 

30

. Each setting, called (I

r

), is expressed as a multiple (ranging from 

0.4–1) of the current (I

n

). The nominal current pickup value is 110% 

of the setting.

Note:

N

(I

r

) is also the basis for the short delay current setting (see page 23).
