Final Installation Instructions (All Trip Units)
Install
if required, using the appropriate
instruction leaflet listed in Section 8.2. Where accessories
are not required, install protective barriers supplied with
the trip unit in accessory retaining slots in left- and right-
hand poles of trip unit and in fourth pole current sensor
if
applicable.
Make sure interphase barriers and sliding handle barrier
are in place.
Install circuit breaker covers and pan-head screws as
shown in Fig. 9.
CAUTION
THE RATING PLUG MECHANICALLY INTERLOCKS
WITH THE TRIP UNIT. IF RATING PLUG IS NOT
CORRECTLY INSTALLED, THE CIRCUIT BREAKER
CANNOT BE RESET OR PLACED IN THE ON
Fourth
until the arrow points to ENGAGED. If an adjustable rating
plug is used, four continuous current settings are possible.
Set the switch marked A, B, C, D to the current rating
desired.
Note: The reverse procedure
is used to remove the
rating plug. Turn the Push-to-Trip button to the
remove
action will cause the circuit
breaker to
grasp the lip of the Push-to-Trip
button and gently pull. A small screwdriver placed
under the left edge of the rating plug will assist in
removal.
Reset circuit breaker by moving handle to the reset
position. Move handle to the
ON position. Circuit breaker
handle should remain at the
ON position.
Press Push-to-Trip button (in rating plug) to check manual
tripping of the circuit breaker.

Install rating plug. Position the rating plug as shown in Fig.
10. Insert the rating plug in the trip
pins and
plunger must align correctly with the matching receptacles
and slot in the trip unit. After the rating plug is pressed into
position, depress the Push-to-Trip button with a small

PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
In open air at
an Q-Frame circuit breaker with an
Electronic RMS
Trip Unit installed will carry continuously
up to 800 amperes without exceeding a 50°C rise at the
terminals. The calibration of the trip unit is insensitive to
ambient temperatures over a range of -20" to
However, the trip unit contains thermal temperature
protective circuitry that initiates a trip operation for self-
protection if the internal ambient temperature at the
printed circuit board (PCB) reaches approximately 100°C.
This may occur for open air temperatures above 40°C
with circuit breaker currents near full load.
