Finally, if the Trip Unit was ordered as a replacement, the
letter R is appended to the catalog number.
For example, a Trip Unit with catalog number
PK050P3F1608R has the following functions:
PK050 – Trip Unit for AK-50 circuit breaker with a
frame rating of 1600 A
D – ProTrip Trip Unit
3 – 3-wire configuration
F – Fixed CT sensors
16 – 1600 A sensors
08 – Long-time, short-time, instantaneous, and
switchable ground fault protection functions
R – Trip Unit was ordered as a replacement
1–5 Rating Plugs
Interchangeable rating plugs are used to establish or
change the trip rating of the breaker. A built-in rejection
feature prevents the insertion of a rating plug with an
incorrect sensor rating into a Trip Unit. Rating plug
catalog numbers are listed in Table 7. A rating plug is
shown in Figure 2.
Figure 2. ProTrip rating plug.
CAUTION: Removal of the rating plug while the breaker
is carrying current reduces the breaker’s current-carrying
capacity to approximately 25% of the current sensor
rating. This may result in undesired tripping.
ATTENTION: Si le calibreur est retiré alors que le
disjoncteur est sous tension, le déclencheur se régle
automatiquement à approximativement 25% du calibre
du transformateur de courant. Ceci peut entrainer un
déclenchement indésirable.
