System description
Communication-capable 3VA molded case circuit breakers are presented in this chapter.
You will find out about the components that 3VA molded case circuit breakers require in
order to communicate, how these components are interconnected and what properties they
have.
The advantages of optimum integration of 3VA molded case circuit breakers into a software
or communication system are as follows:
●
Acquisition of breaker status
●
Remote control
●
Remote parameterization
●
Monitoring of capacity utilization
●
Acquisition of consumption and performance data
●
Local signaling via the EFB300 external function box
●
Local visualization of 3VA molded case circuit breakers
A 3VA molded case circuit breaker can utilize all these functions only if a
COM060 communication module is installed in the 3VA breaker and connected to a
COM800 breaker data server for up to eight 3VA molded case circuit breakers, or a COM100
breaker data server for one breaker.
You can find detailed information on the communication module and breaker data server and
the communication link of the molded case circuit breaker in the 3VA Communication
System Manual.
