Maintenance Mode current setting
The Maintenance Mode status and setting can be accessed
from the Program Settings submenu and then select the System
Settings menu. The initial screen will show if the Maintenance
Mode is on or off. The next screen will allow the mode to
be turned on or off if it was previously turned on locally. The
Maintenance Mode setting when armed is adjustable for different
levels of trip current for arc reduction: 1000, 2000, 3000, 4000,
5000 Amps for the NRX-NF frame and 4000, 8000, 12000, 16000,
20000 Amps for the NRX-RF frame circuit breaker. The adjustable
current settings allow for different levels of protection. A higher
level may be needed when for example another load feed from this
breaker may contain motors that are being started and create large
inrush currents over the lowest trip current level. The selection
of one of the reduction settings should be determined and
selected by a person who is experienced in power system
analysis.
Actuating Maintenance Mode
There are three ways to actuate the Maintenance Mode setting.
One method is locally via programming setpoints submenu in
the Maintenance Mode section. Enabling the setpoint will turn
on a blue LED that confirms that the function is on.
For the other method of actuating the Maintenance Mode
function, this switch must be in the position labeled 0/1.
With this setting, a remote switch wired through the circuit
breaker secondary contacts 33 and 34 can remotely arm
the Maintenance Mode setting. A high quality gold plated or
palladium contact is required in this application. The blue LED
will verify that the function is armed.
A third method to arm the Maintenance Mode setting is via a
communication device. When Maintenance Mode is enabled
via device communications, it must be disabled by device
communications.
Remote Indicator
Either Relay 1 or 2 can be programed to close when
Maintenance Mode is enabled. This contact can be used to
indicate remotely that the Maintenance Mode setting is armed.
Refer to diagram below for a wiring of this remote (blue light)
indicator.
Tripping and testing
The Maintenance Mode function will provide fast tripping
even when the regular Instantaneous is set to OFF. The
Instantaneous LED position is also used to indicate a trip
initiated by the Maintenance Mode setting. The Maintenance
Mode Trip message will be displayed after a trip.

The time-current curves are listed below for particular trip unit
models. All protection function time-current settings should
be made by following the recommendations of the specifying
engineer in charge of the installation.
