breaker.

7.

Connect the  control  wiring  for  either  Shunt  Trip  to  the
primary  side  of  the  transformer,  marked  as  the  H
numbered terminals. Table  3  lists  the correct  transformer
primary taps.

8.

Connect the  secondary side  of the transformer, marked as
the X numbered terminals,  to terminals 31  and  32  of the
terminal block  on the right side  of  the  breaker.  Table  3

Accessory Configuration

This  section  only  applies  if  Bell  Alarm–Alarm  Only  or  Bell
Alarm  with  Lockout  accessories  are  installed  in  the  breaker,
along with a MicroVersaTrip  Plus or  MicroVersaTrip  PM Trip
Unit. If the breaker  is equipped with  a  Power+  Trip  Unit,  the
factory default settings, listed in Table 4,  can not be changed.
The  Shunt  Trip  accessory can be configured  to activate  the Bell
Alarm–Alarm Only or  Bell  Alarm with  Lockout  accessories if  a
shunt  trip  occurs.  The  configuration  can  be  changed  by
removing  the  Trip  Unit  from  the  breaker,  setting  the  DIP
switches on the rear of the Trip  Unit,  and  reinstalling  the Trip
Unit. Figure 4 illustrates the Trip  Unit  rear DIP switches  and
their  functions.  Table  4  lists  the  switch  functions  and  the
factory settings for each.

Description of Switch Settings

Following are descriptions of the effects of each  accessory  switch
when it is 

enabled

.

1.

When  a  Shunt  Trip  accessory  causes  the breaker  to  trip,
the  contacts  of  the  Bell  Alarm–Alarm  Only  also  change
state. (The  factory switch setting is 

disabled

.)
