Instructions for Digitrip RMS 810 Trip Unit

where applicable) - see Section 6 for specific instructions for your
circuit breaker type .
The
(Current) Sensor Rating
(where applicable) is the maximum
RMS current the circuit breaker can carry with the specified current
sensors installed . The Sensor Rating can be the same or less than
the Frame Rating, but not greater .
The
Rating Plug
(see Figure 9) fits into a special cavity to complete
the Trip Unit (see Figure 1) .
Figure 9. Rating Plug.
CAUTION
BEFORE YOU FIT THE RATING PLUG INTO THE TRIP UNIT, BE SURE TO CHECK THAT
THE BREAKER TYPE AND FRAME RATING (OR SENSOR RATING IF APPLICABLE),
MATCH THOSE PRINTED ON THE RATING PLUG COVER. INSTALLING A RATING PLUG
THAT DOES NOT MATCH THE BREAKER TYPE AND FRAME RATING (OR SENSOR
RATING, IF APPLICABLE), CAN PRODUCE SERIOUS MIS-COORDINATION AND/OR
FAILURE OF THE PROTECTION SYSTEM.
After installing the Rating Plug, press and release the "TRIP RESET"
push-button to turn off any illuminated LEDs . The purpose of the
rating plug is to set the value of I
n
, the basis for the Trip Unit protec-
tion function current settings (see Section 3 for details) . Each circuit
breaker frame rating represents the maximum current it can carry
continuously . However for proper coordination of over-current pro-
tection, it is often desirable to choose different levels of I
n
for differ-
ent circuit breakers of the same frame rating . An assortment of rat-
ing plugs with different I
n
values is available for each breaker frame
rating (see circuit breaker instruction leaflet supplements listed in
Section 6) to give the user flexibility to change the value of I
n
with-
out having to change the primary current sensors on the breaker .
By changing the rating plug, the User can easily change the range
of current protection settings without having to remove the circuit
breaker from its enclosure .
For example, if one expects a circuit to carry 600 A initially, but
then increase to 1400 A in the future, one could initially install 1600
A cables and a 1600 A breaker frame with the Trip Unit rating plug
whose I
n
= 800 A . Then later on when the additional load is ready
to come on line, the rating plug could be exchanged for one with I
n
= 1600 A, without having to remove the breaker from its enclosure .
The available settings would give the following choices:

Rating plugs from Digitrip models 500 / 600 / 700 / 800 CANNOT be
used with model 810 Trip Units . The connection pins are located in different
positions, so one cannot accidentally use the incorrect type of plug .
Rating Plugs for the Digitrip RMS 810 Trip Units are marked for, and
may be applied on both 50 and 60 Hz systems .
Rating plugs have two current ratings listed on their covers (see
Figure 9) .
•
The "Must Use With Frame Rated" current value (or "Sensor
Rated", if applicable),
and
•
" I
n
(rated I)=" current value .
This latter value (I
n
) is the basis for the Trip Unit current settings:
•
The instantaneous and Ground Current Settings (if applicable) are
multiples of (I
n
) (see Sections 3 .6 and 3 .8 .) .
•
The Long Delay Current Setting,
I
r
is a multiple of (I
n
) . Long
Delay Current Setting =
I
r
= LD x (I
n
) (see Section 3 .2 .) .
•
The Short Delay Current Setting (if provided) is a multiple of
I
r
which in turn is a multiple of (I
n
) . Short Delay Current Setting =
SD x
I
r
= SD x LD x (I
n
) (see Section 3 .4) .
