The breaker does not trip

 

when UVR control 
power is removed.

The Bell Alarm–Alarm 

Only 

or Bell Alarm with 
Lockout does not trip 
correctly (trips when it 
shouldn’t or doesn’t trip 
when it should).

The accessory is inserted

 

incorrectly

.

The UVR lockout plunger is 
not engaged.

The UVR is actually energized.

The UVR solenoid is not 
energized.

The breaker is not closed.

UVR control power is actually still 
applied.

The UVR trip connection is poor.

The Bell Alarm–Alarm Only or Bell 
Alarm with Lockout configuration 
switches on the back of the 
MicroVersaTrip Plus or 
MicroVersaTrip PM Trip Unit are 
not properly set. Note that this 
feature is not available with Power
+™ Trip Units.
The Bell Alarm–Alarm Only or Bell 
Alarm with Lockout accessory is 
improperly installed.

Ensure that the accessory is inserted in the correct slot, as in 
Figure 2, and that the label is upright. Ensure that the 
accessory is completely seated and that the screw is 
tightened.

Check that the lockout plunger 

protrudes approximately

  

4

 inch out of the accessory;

 

 if it does 

not, replace the UVR. If the plunger length is correct, reinsert 
the UVR, ensuring good alignment of the accessory

 

 to the 

pocket. 

 

Ensure that it is completely seated, flush with the top 

of the pocket, then tighten the screw to 9 in-lb.
Check that the control power to the UVR is off.

Check that UVR control power is applied at greater than 80% 
of the UVR rated voltage. Check that the accessory is 
completely inserted; reinsert if necessary.
If using a 12 Vdc UVR, check that the polarity of the control 
power matches that shown on the label of the UVR accessory.

Note that an otherwise unpowered Trip Unit would be 
powered up by an energized UVR accessory.

Verify that the breaker is closed.
Check that the UVR control power has been removed or that 
its voltage is less than 35% of the rated value.
Check that the UVR accessory is completely inserted.
Check that the Trip Unit is seated correctly. If the Trip Unit 
was removed to set the switches, check that it has been 
correctly installed; remove and reinstall, if necessary.

Follow the procedure to remove the Trip Unit and set the 
switches. Check that the switches have been set correctly.
