2.3 Short-circuit protection of the motor-protective circuit-breakers
The following table 2 shows the short-circuit breaking capacity of the
PKZM0-…/XTPR…BC1NL, PKZM0-…-T/XTPT…BC1NL motor-protective
circuit-breakers.
Fuse can be interconnected in the upstream circuit to increase the switching
capacity to 100 kA.

No upstream protective device required, as it is the auto-protected range (150 kA)
N = Not required
1) Rated uninterrupted current I
u
2) Conditional rated short-circuit current I
q
according to IEC/EN 60947-4-1
3) Primary fusing is required if the short-circuit current exceeds the conditional rated short-circuit current (I
cc
> I
q
).
The conditional rated short-circuit current is determined by the primary fuse used:
100 A gG/gL, I
q
= 30 kA
50 A gG/gL, I
q
= 100 kA
