Breaker Monitor
Also, note that the breaker maintenance curve falls vertically above set point
KASP3, COSP3. This is the maximum interrupted current limit of the circuit
breaker (KASP3 = 20.0 kA). If the interrupted current is greater than setting
KASP3, the interrupted current is accumulated as a current value equal to
setting KASP3.
Operation of SEL
OGIC
Control Equation Breaker Monitor Initiation Setting
BKMON
The SEL
OGIC
control equation breaker monitor initiation setting BKMON in
Table 8.2 determines when the breaker monitor reads in current values (Phases
A, B, and C) for the breaker maintenance curve (see Figure 8.2 ) and the
breaker monitor accumulated currents/trips [see BRE Command (Breaker
Monitor Data) on page 10.15 ].
The BKMON setting looks for a rising edge (logical 0 to logical 1 transition)
as the indication to read in current values. The acquired current values are then
applied to the breaker maintenance curve and the breaker monitor
accumulated currents/trips (see references in previous paragraph).
In the factory default settings, the SEL
OGIC
control equation breaker monitor
initiation setting is set:
BKMON =
TRIP
(TRIP is the logic output of Figure 5.1 )
Refer to Figure 8.3 . When BKMON asserts (Relay Word bit TRIP goes from
logical 0 to logical 1), the breaker monitor reads in the current values and
applies them to the breaker monitor maintenance curve and the breaker
monitor accumulated currents/trips.
As detailed in Figure 8.3 , the breaker monitor actually reads in the current
values 1.5 cycles after the assertion of BKMON. This helps especially if an
instantaneous trip occurs. The instantaneous element trips when the fault
current reaches its pickup setting level. The fault current may still be
“climbing” to its full value and then levels off. The 1.5-cycle delay on reading
in the current values allows time for the fault current to level off.

See Figure 8.8 and accompanying text for more information on setting
BKMON. The operation of the breaker monitor maintenance curve, when new
current values are read in, is explained in the following example.

Operation Example
As stated earlier, each phase (A, B, and C) has its own breaker maintenance
curve. For this example, presume that the interrupted current values occur on a
single phase in
Figure 8.4 – Figure 8.7 . Also, presume that the circuit breaker
interrupting contacts have no wear at first (brand new or recent maintenance
performed).
Note in the following four figures ( Figure 8.4 – Figure 8.7 ) that the interrupted
current in a given figure is the same magnitude for all the interruptions (e.g.,
in
Figure 8.5 , 2.5 kA is interrupted 290 times). This is not realistic, but helps
in demonstrating the operation of the breaker maintenance curve and how it
integrates for varying current levels.
