The following settings are made from the breaker maintenance information in Table 8.1 and
Figure 8.1:
COSP1
=
10000
COSP2
=
150
COSP3
=
12
KASP1
=
1.20
KASP2
=
8.00
KASP3
=
20.00
Figure 8.2 shows the resultant breaker maintenance curve.
Breaker Maintenance Curve Details
In Figure 8.2, note that set points KASP1, COSP1 and KASP3, COSP3 are set with breaker
maintenance information from the two extremes in Table 8.1 and Figure 8.1.
In this example, set point KASP2, COSP2 happens to be from an in-between breaker
maintenance point in the breaker maintenance information in Table 8.1 and Figure 8.1, but it
doesn’t have to be. Set point KASP2, COSP2 should be set to provide the best “curve-fit” with
the plotted breaker maintenance points in Figure 8.1.
Each phase (A, B, and C) has its own breaker maintenance curve (like that in Figure 8.2),
because the separate circuit breaker interrupting contacts for phases A, B, and C don’t
necessarily interrupt the same magnitude current (depending on fault type and loading).
