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

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.

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.
