Power behind bars
The world’s safest socket system
Small cause, large effect: as the world’s first
pluggable socket system, SMISSLINE TP ensures
that load-free devices and components can be
snapped on and off under voltage without
the need for additional personal protective
equipment to guard against electrical hazards.
That opens up completely new prospects for you
when it comes to installation, operation and
flexibility.
New Power Bar System 250 A
The new 250 A system is now available in the
shape of the SMISSLINE TP. The busbars have
a rated amperage of 250 A and therefore allow
a end feed of 250 A. This extends the spectrum
of potential applications.

Efficiency you can touch
Plug in components during ongoing
operation
Even safer: Protection against electrical hazards
We have upgraded our unique SMISSLINE TP
socket system even further through the addition
of a pioneering innovation. With the new
SMISSLINE TP system, components can now be
plugged in or unplugged load-free without any
risk from electrical current running through the
body.
The SMISSLINE TP pluggable socket system is
completely finger-safe (IP20B) – when devices are
plugged in and unplugged, the system is always
touch-proof. This means that SMISSLINE TP prevents any danger to personnel from switching
arcs or accidental arcing.
Even more flexible: make additions and changes
during on going operation
Pluggable devices can be added and changed
quickly, safely and simply during ongoing operation. And this can be done without any need for
personal protective equipment.
This means that you benefit from more flexibility,
savings on installation and maintenance – and
improved safety. SMISSLINE TP provides greater
availability and operating safety than conventional systems.

Absolutely safe without protective equipment
The SMISSLINE TP principle taken further
The ingenious Click system
Using the SMISSLINE TP system’s unique SMISS
CLICK function, five different protective devices
can easily be plugged into one pluggable socket
system with integrated busbars. In this way, the
SMISSLINE system allows the uncomplicated,
modular, flexible distribution of power up to a
rated current of 250 A. Plugging in the devices
quickly and without problems is essential for
time-saving, cost-effective planning and
execution.
Current measurement system
The CMS is a system for current measurement of
electrical lines. The system consists of a Control
Unit and sensors with different measurement
ranges (20 A, 40 A, 80 A). The sensors measure alternating, direct and mixed currents (TRMS).
The sensors get connected to the Control Unit by
a flat cable. You can remotely query the measurement data via a RS485 interface (Modbus RTU).

Remote Power Panel – Data Center
Application Note
Backup protection
Based on backup and selectivity requirements a Molded Case Circuit Breaker
(XT4) is used to protect the Sub-Distribution. The rating can go up to 250 A
per MCCB if parallel incoming is used. The Backup protection complies with
IEC/EN 60898-1 and IEC/EN 60947-2 and allows industrial use. With the
integrated COM-Module all voltages, currents, power factors and status data
is available through a Modbus RTU interface.
Circuit Monitoring System Control Unit – CMS-700
RPP’s heart is the Control Unit CMS-700 which aggregates the current readings
from the CMS and the Power Quality Values to create consumption data and
generate alarms in case of system errors. In addition to the optional front door
touch display CP651-WEB, a generic Modbus TCP and SNMP interface is supported. Typically this protocols are used to interface the data center infrastructure management system – DCIM.
Circuit Monitoring System – open core and solid core sensors
ABB’s CMS is the most compact, neat and hassle-free branch circuit monitoring
system available on the market. The sensors are mounted directly on the
SMISSLINE Miniature Circuit Breakers and there is no need of conventional
expensive and cumbersome cabling thanks to internal Modbus instead of typical
Current Transformer star wiring. The new range of open core sensors helps
to add branch monitoring into existing installations without the need to power off they system.
Touch proof system - SMISSLINE TP
The world’s first pluggable and touch proof socket system, SMISSLINE TP ensures
that load-free devices and components can be safely snapped on and off under
voltage without shutting down one single server. In addition maintenance can be
done by instructed personnel without electrician’s qualification. Moreover you
can save 20 % space for the typical A/B distribution in a data center. Compared to
a conventional build up time of 15 hours of an RPP like this – SMISSLINE needs only
8h which allows another 45 % of time saving.
Power Quality Analyzer
The Power Quality Analyzer has dual function. First, it provides the voltage and
power factor reference value to the PLC for calculating the effective power and
energy values for the branch circuit. It allows the class III system reports according to DIN EN 61000-2-4 secondly, it provides the following data for the complete
RPP:
- Active, reactive and apparent power
- Residual current monitoring
- Voltage quality (DIN EN 50160)
- Frequency and power factor
- Total harmonic distortion

Miniature circuit breaker
Properties
General Information
The SMISSLINE miniature circuit-breaker is an energy-restricting circuit-breaker that has
high performance values and that is equally suitable for the industrial sector, for commercial
use and for installation at home.
If a short-circuit occurs, it guarantees excellent selectivity conditions to upstream overcurrent circuit breakers while the load on equipment that is connected downstream is limited to
a minimum amount.
The most important features
- High rated breaking capacity of 10 kA or 6 kA
- Optimum ease of installation and connection
- The pole conductors are protected against accidental contact
- Tripping characteristic on B, C, D, K, UCZ/UCC
Miniature circuit-breaker in accordance with standard EN 60898-1
This standard is for electrical installation material for household installations and for similar
purposes. It regulates the use of miniature circuit-breakers by the layman up to a maximum
of 125 A, a voltage of 440 VAC and up to a maximum of 25 kA.
Miniature circuit-breaker in accordance with standard EN60947-2
This standard is for low-voltage material used for industrial purposes. It regulates the use of
circuit-breakers (and not miniature circuit-breakers) by qualified personnel up to a maximum
voltage of 1000 VAC or 1500 VDC. This standard does not recognise any maximum values
when it comes to current and breaking capacity. In practice, the standard is also applied to
miniature circuit-breakers.
Brief description of tripping
The SMISSLINE miniature circuit breakers have a
Oscillogram of a short-circuit current
interruption
current-limiting operation. They have two different releases acting on the mechanism.
1. Thermal release, operating with a time delay,
for overload protection
2. Electro-magnetic release plunger operated
for short-circuit protection.
They offer:
– high short-circuit breaking capacity
– high selectivity to the back-up fuse
– In the event of short-circuits, low

Auxiliary switches and signal contacts
Description, Technical data
General
The auxiliary switches and signal contacts are snapped on to the left of the protective devices.
On the miniature circuit breakers an optional mounting on the right is also possible.
For auxiliary switches and signal contacts supplied via SMISSLINE auxiliary busbars LA or LB
a version with integrated contacting pieces is available Conventional supply via the terminals
of the auxiliary devices is possible.
Function
The auxiliary switch works in the same way as the main contacts. The signal contact only operates
when the protective device trips.
This can be simulated with the white test button. Each time the signal contact is tripped, it must be
reset to its starting position using the orange-coloured reset button.
Auxiliary switch and signal contacts have special contacts whitch ensure high switching reliability
even in systems with low voltages or low currents (PLC, signal systems etc.).
Auxiliary switch contacts operate at the same time as the contacts of the protective device
(activated manually or automatically).

F4C-ARI auto-reclosing unit
Specific features
The F4C-ARI auto-reclosing device, installed to
the right side of the residual current circuit break-
ers, automatically performs three reclosing
attempts in the event of a fault. If the result of the
three reclosing attempts is negative, the device
enters a locked state.
The luminous two- colors red/green LED shows
the operating state of the auto-reclosing device.
- Blinking green LED: this is displayed for five
seconds after the device is powered up. When
the LED stops blinking, the device is ready to
operate.
- Steady green LED: the remote control is
activated and the device is powered.
- LED is off: no power supply.
- Blinking red LED: reclosing cycle in progress.
- Steady red LED: the remote control is excluded on the device or is in a locked state following three unsuccessful reclosing attempts,
or as a result of a remote opening command.
The lower section of the device contains an inte-
which indicates the position of the contacts of
the associated circuit breaker.
The associated residual current circuit breaker
can be remotely opened via a command with the
NO contact. The remote open command locks out
the resetting logic and brings the auto-reclosing
device into a locked state.
Operation of the close/reset and open commands
can be performed via an impulse command.
Remote commands and reclosing logic may be
deactivated locally by means of the mobile element on the front of the device. This is desirable
during maintenance interventions with the device
in the OFF position, in order to avoid remote-activated closing operations or automatic reclosing.
In this case, with the selector and the circuit
breaker in the OFF position, the device may be
physically locked by threading a padlock through
the with draw able element on the front.
The locked state can be reset:
- locally, by manually moving the mobile element on the front of the device to the OFF position and subsequently to the ON position.
The device will reset and automatically reclose
the circuit breaker;
- remotely, by means of a close command
(NO contact) which resets the device and
close the circuit breaker.
Using both of the resetting methods, the cycle of
three re closing attempts can be repeated.

Busbar system 125 A
Socket bases ZLS906, ZLS908
The smissline socket system is a totally new kind of assembly and connection technology for the construction of distributions. Besides the classic method of snapping the devices onto 35-mm mounting
rails, the new family of devices can be directly attached to the socket bases with integrated busbars.
The time-consuming process of connecting up the supply is thereby no longer needed. In addition, in
the event of rearrangement or expansion, the replacement of devices in existing systems is made significantly easier.
The socket sections and the wide range of accessories make it possible to plan with the capability for
expansion and to construct distribution systems of any desired size in a short period of time.
6- and 8-module sockets are installed either by screwing them onto any flat surface or by snapping
them onto a 35 mm DIN mounting rail. Lateral movement or detachment of the sockets again is possible before final fixing.
- In order to determine the required socket length, the space necessary for
- the devices required
- the incoming terminal block and
- any reserve spaces needed must be determined.
Snap mounting
Pull down the slide with a screwdriver until it latches (socket can be moved).
Press on front of slid:
Fixed position
(Sockets fixed)
The key features
- System of any desired length (even number of poles)
- Integrated busbars
- Simple device change
- Long-term planning and problem free extension possible
- Significant time savings during assembly and connection
Busbars for the sockets and additional socket ZLS200
The busbars of size 10 x 3 mm can be loaded with currents up to 125 A. They are plated for perfect
contact wiith the devices plug-in contacts. The maximum available busbar length is 1979 mm. The same
busbar type is used, regardless whether it is fitted in the socket (L1, L2, L3, N) or in the additional
socket (N, PE). The busbars are inserted in to the socket from the front.
Auxiliary busbars for the socket ZLS202
The 5 x 2 mm auxiliary busbars are intended for a common power supply of auxiliary switches and signal
contacts. They are also plated and their max. delivery length is 1979 mm.
Like the main busbars, the auxiliary busbars are inserted in holders LA and LB from the front. Of course,
only on auxiliary busbar can be fitted.

Busbar system 125 A Incoming
Incoming terminal blocks ZLS260 to 262
Compact terminal block with the construction width of 18 mm for 2 poles. The maximum rated current
is 63 A for L1, L2, L3N and 6 A for LA, LB.
General
The incoming terminal block is used to connect cables directly to the busbars. The terminals act
directly on the busbars and therefore fix the incoming terminal block. Removable terminal tops permit
the connection of continous conductrors (risers) white horizontal or vertical cable entry is also
possible.
Instead of using the incoming terminal block, the power supply can also be realized via a device
(e.g. residual current operated circuit breaker, miniature circuit breaker or switch disconnector).
Incoming terminal blocks ZLS224, 225
A standard incoming terminal block whose cover provides protection against accidental contact.
Construction height 50 mm. The base plate can be fitted with a maximum of 4 main terminals L1, L2, L3
and N for the busbars, and 2 auxiliary termiinals LA and LB for the auxiliary busbars.
75SMISSLINE TP-TOUCH PROOF SYSTEM POWER AND SAFETY
Incoming terminal blocks, low ZLS228, 229
Incoming terminal block with construction height of 36 mm.
Feed block left and right
In order to prevent the cables from crossing when two sockets rows are connected it is a good solution
to use a left and a right incoming block (see photo).
Incoming terminal component ZLS250 to 255
The incoming terminal component, with an installation width of 36 mm is available as a single-pole
component for the line conductors L1, L2, L3 and as neutral. The terminals act directly on the busbars
and thereby fix the incoming terminal component. The incoming terminal component, L1, L2, L3 and N
can be combined to meet specific needs. A maximum cable cross-section of 95 mm
to the incoming terminal component.

Technical details
Busbar system power supply
Indirect supply via residual current operated circuit
breaker (RCCB)
(or switch disconnector)
The supply cable is connected at the top of the RCCB. This supply
variant gives the busbars and therefore all subsequent devices RCCB
protection. If several RCCB groups are planned, the busbars should be
separated and spaced using the dark grey busbar insulator ZLS938.
Attention must then be paid to the regulations governing protection of
the residual current circuit breaker by subsequent miniature circuit
breakers. The supply can also be fed in through the switch disconnector.
Direct supply to residual current operated circuit breaker
(or switch disconnector)
Instead of using the incoming terminal block, the power can also be
supplied via a device.
In this case, the supply cable is connected to the lower terminal of the
device. The residual current operated circuit breaker or switch disconnector can be supplied with 63 A regardless of its rated current, since
the plug-in connection arrangement of the device is suitable for this
amount of current.
For current in excess of 63 A, the incoming terminal block or the
incoming terminal component should be used.
Supply of auxiliary busbars LA and LB
The two auxiliary busbars LA and LB can be supplied using the additional terminal ZLS 233 via a incoming terminal block. The maximum
operating current of the auxiliary busbars is 40 A.
Incoming block for two auxiliary busbars LA, LB
The pluggable incoming block is especially for the two auxiliary
busbars LA, LB. The maximum rated current is 6 A.

Smissline TP technical details
Busbar system 125 A accessories
Socket end piece ZLS920
To prevent displacement of sockets and busbars (particulary when installed vertically) end pieces
can be fitted at the start and finish of each row of sockets. These simultaneously ensure electrically
protected covering of the busbar end faces and mechanical fixing of the sockets oh the mounting rail.
79SMISSLINE TP-TOUCH PROOF SYSTEM POWER AND SAFET Y
Intermediate piece ZLS725
The light grey intermediate piece matches the device profile and fills empty module spaces.
Busbar insulator ZLS938
The dark grey busbar insulator electrically isolates the separated busbar ends from each other
(e.g. when using several RCD protected groups) and also identifies the isolation point from outside.
It conforms with the device profile and its space requirement is 1 module.
Busbar cover ZLS100
If component modules or spare modules are not requiered, the busbar cover ensures electrically
protected covering of the main and auxiliary busbars. The cover (4 modules) can be divided anywhere.
The openings allow voltage measurements on the busbars without removing the cover.
Extension adapter ZLS101
The extension adapter, single or several side by side, can be plugged into the busbar cover via the
built-in holding device. This enables conventional DIN devices with 45 mm cap size to be snapped onto
the SMISSLINE socket. By plugging in several extension adapters one on top of the other, heights can
be adjusted in multiples of 7 mm

Power supply:
overload and short-circuit protection
Overload and short-circuit protection of the
plug-in socket system
Protection of the busbar system without
upstream overcurrent protection
An important factor for the protection of the
busbar system (sockets, incoming terminal block,
incoming terminal component, adapter, combi
module or terminals) is the characteristic of the
rated peak withstand current I
withstand current I
system is 35 kA.
Protection of the busbar system with upstream
overcurrent protection
The rated short-circuit current Icf of the
SMISSLINE busbar system is 50 kA.
If, on the power supply side, a circuit breaker of
the type Sace Tmax 200 A, a high performance
circuit breaker S800 or a NH fuse is positioned
upstream of the busbar system, then due to the
short-circuit current limiting effect of this protection device, a larger prospective short-circuit
current of up to 50 kA for the plug-in socket system is permissible.

Residual-current circuit breaker
A back-up fuse with max. 100 A gL/gG or a high
performance circuit breaker S800 100 A is
required for short-circuit protection upstream or
downstream (see Coordination table, page 2/42).
A back-up fuse is not required up to the level of
the internal short-circuit withstand rating.
Thermal protection can be ensured by means of
downstream miniature circuit breakers, but only
if the rated currents do not exceed the value of
the current rating of the residual- current circuit
breaker in consideration of a utilisation factor.
Surge arrester OVR
An upstream overcurrent protection device with
max. 160 A gL/gG is necessary for short- circuit
protection (in the case of non-independent interruptions of the secondary current).
Back-up fuses for devices with a universal
adapter
In principle, the same requirements apply as for
directly plugged-in devices.
Overload and short-circuit protection of devices
on the busbar system
The rated short-circuit breaking capacity (or
rated breaking capacity) of the protective
devices, together with the maximum short-circuit
current at the installation location of the devices
on the busbar system, must be taken into consideration.
This is not only relevant for the SMISSLINE busbar
system, but is also applicable to the distribution
construction.
Miniature circuit breaker
If the prospective short-circuit current at the installation location of a miniature circuit breaker is
not greater than its rated breaking capacity, no
back-up protection via an upstream over current
protection device is necessary.
If the prospective short-circuit current at the
installation location of a miniature circuit breaker
is greater than its rated short-circuit breaking
capacity, the current ratings of the upstream
overcurrent protection device must not exceed
the table values in the back-up tables (catalogue,
page 2/20 onwards).

Back-up protection with fuses, S800
a) If the short-circuit current at the point of installation of the circuit breaker is not greater than the nominal breaking
capacity of the MCB, an upstream fuse is not needed. If a fuse is fitted upstream for installation reasons, any nominal
current may be selected for the fuse.
b) If the short-circuit current at the point of installation of the circuit breaker is greater than its nominal breaking capacity,
the nominal currents of the upstream fuses must not exceed the values specified in the table (back-up protection of
the circuit breaker).
This table provides the value (in kA) for which the back-up protection is ensured between a given combination of circuit
breakers. The table covers possible combinations between the S800 or SACE series Tmax and between SMISSLINE miniature
circuit breakers 400 M.

Influence of ambient temperature
Allowable current of miniature circuit breakers depending on ambient temperature and max. load current for row
mounted miniature circuit breakers.
Practical procedure
Conditions often arise which allow for simple consideration of the ambient temperature and thermal influences of row
mounted circuit breakers according to EN 60898 and EN 60947-2. The following procedure has proven to be effective:
1. Selection of circuit breaker according to the rated current of the equipment or the current carrying capacity of the
cable depending on whitch of these is the lower value.
2. Consideration of thermal factors
– for an ambient temperature
– for thermal influence of row mounted circuit breakers
3. This results in the rated current of the circuit breaker to be selected for the relevant current
This procedure considers all thermal influence factors and results in an optimum choice of the rated current for the circuit
breaker.
For more accurate calculations and very high or very low ambient temperatures, the following tables apply:
2. Influence of row mounted devices at continuous load
If the circuit breakers are lined up close to one another and have equally high load levels, a correction factor must be taken.
This influence can be reduced if fillers and/or spacers (9 mm wide) are used.

MCBs technical details
S400UC
UC = Universal Current = AC/DC
S400UC MCBs can be used in the one-pole version as 250 V d.c., and in the 2-pole version
with series connection of two poles up to 440 V d.c..
For DC incoming supply from above
S400 UC-... MCBs have, in the area of arc chutes, permanent magnets, it is therefore necessary to take into account the polarity during the installation process.
Doing so ensures that in the case of a short circuit the magnetic field of the permanent magnets corresponds with the electromagnetic field of the short-circuit current, therefore safely
leading the short circuit into the arc chute. Incorrect polarities may cause damage to the
MCB.
This is why – in the case of top-fed devices – terminal 1 must be connected to (–)
and terminal 3 (+).

RCDs technical details
Properties
General information about residual current operated circuit breakers
The residual current operated circuit breaker prevents personal injury and damage to property caused
by electric current. Use of this circuit breaker is required in various national and international standards
for electrical installations.
Modern residual current operated circuit breakers respond to small residual currents. Interruption
occurs in a fraction of a second even before a hazardous situation for people, animals and property
can arise.
The principle of magnetic tripping independable of the supply voltage ensures perfect and safe
operation even in the event of undervoltage and neutral interruptions.
The key features
- High short-circuit resistance 10 kA
- Sensitive for alternating and pulsating DC residual currents
- 2- and 4-pole types
- Nominal residual trip currents 10, 30, 100, 300 and 500 mA
- Snap-on auxiliary switches and signal contacts
- Nominal currents 25, 40, 63 A
- Double terminals
According to the wave form of the earth leakage currents they are sensitive to,
the RCDs may be classed as:
- A type (for alternating and/or pulsating current with DC components
- AC type (for alternating current only)
ABB SMISSLINE RCD’s are all type A.

Selectivity
RCDs raise similar issue to those surrounding the installation of MCBs, and in particular the need
to reduce to a minimum the parts of the system out of order in the event of a fault.
For RCBOs the problem of selectivity in the case of short-circuit currents may be handled
with the same specific criteria as for MCBs.
However, for correct residual current protection, the more important aspects are linked to tripping
times. Protection against contact voltages is only effective if the maximum times indicated
on the safety curve are not exceeded.

Selectivity may be created by placing low-sensitivity RCDs upstream and higher-sensitivity RCDs downstream.
An essential condition which must be satisfied in order to achieve selective co-ordination is that the I
value of the breaker upstream (main breaker) is more than double the I value of the breaker downstream. The operative rule to obtain an amperometric (partial) selectivity is I

Standard, short-time delayed and selective type
The use of multiple electronic reactors for the supply of fluorescent lamps instead generates permanent leakage currents and inrush currents that can provoke nuisance tripping of a standard residual
current breaker.
IT system loads and other electronic equipment (e.g. dimmers, computers, inverters) with capacitive
input filters connected between the phases and ground can also generate permanent earth leakage
currents whose sum may provoke the nuisance tripping of a standard residual current breaker.
For these situations, the SHORT-TIME DELAY breakers allow a greater number of devices to be connected to the installation.
Soft-starters for motors are loads which can generate high-frequency capacitive currents (provoked by
the harmonics) toward ground or fed into the network. Also in this case, the use of SHORT-TIME DELAY
residual breakers reduces the sensibility to nuisance tripping.
Compared with standard type breakers, SHORT-TIME DELAY residual current breakers are therefore
characterised, for any given sensibility, by:
- Higher residual trip current
- Tripping time delay
- Better resistance to overvoltages, harmonics and impulse disturbances.
Regulations
The tests set out in the IEC 61008 and IEC 61009 standards verify the resistance of residual current
breakers to unwanted tripping provoked by operation overvoltages, using a ring wave impulse shape of
surge test with a 3000 A peak current, but limit the requirement to residual current devices classified
as selective; no test is required for other types.
The ABB range of SHORT-TIME DELAY anti-nuisance tripping breakers and blocks pass the general
In the event of disturbance in the mains, the RCDs normally present in the system are tripped, breaking
the circuit even in the absence of a true earth fault.
Disturbances of this kind are most often caused by:
- operation overvoltages caused by inserting or removing loads (opening or closing protection of
control devices, starting and stopping motors, switching fluorescent lighting systems on and off,
etc.)
- overvoltages of atmospheric origin, caused by direct or indirect discharges on the electrical line.
Under these circumstances, breaker tripping is unwanted, since it does not satisfy the need to avoid
the risks due to direct and indirect contacts. On the contrary, the sudden and unjustified interruption
of the power supply may result in very serious problems.

SHORT-TIME DELAY RCDs
The ABB range of SHORT-TIME DELAY anti-disturbance residual current circuitbreakers and blocks was
designed to overcome the problem of unwanted tripping due to overvoltages of atmospheric or operation origin.
The electronic circuit in these devices can distinguish between temporary leakage caused by disturbances on the mains and permanent leakage due to actual faults, only breaking the circuit in the latter
case.
SHORT-TIME DELAY residual current circuit-breakers and blocks have a slight delay into the tripping
time, but this does not compromise the safety limits set by the Standards in force (release time
=150 ms).
at 2 I
Guaranteeing conventional residual current protection, their installation in the electrical circuit therefore allows any unwanted tripping to be avoided in domestic and industrial systems in which service
continuity is essential.
This delay makes the SHORT-TIME DELAY residual current devices especially suited for installations
involving motor starters/variable speed drives, fluorescent lamps or IT/electronic equipment.
