1.3.2 Selection of Circuit Breaker

For the selection of the circuit breaker, perform it according to the following items.

• 3 times of the rated current flows to the controller during the acceleration/deceleration. Select an

interrupter that does not trip with this value of current. If a trip occurs, select an interrupter that

possesses the rated current of one grade higher. (Check the operation characteristics curves in

the product catalog.)

• Select an interrupter that does not trip with the in-rush current. (Check the operation

characteristics curves in the product catalog.)

• Consider the current that enables to cutoff the current even when a short circuit current is flown

for the rated cutoff current.

Rated Interrupting Current > Short Circuit Current = Circuit Breaker Primary Power Capacity /

Power Voltage

Consider margin for the rated current on the circuit breaker.

Rated Current for Circuit Interrupter >

Total capacity of motor power for all the connected actuators / AC input voltage
