Zone-Selective Interlocking
Short-time and ground-fault protection can be
interlocked to provide zone-selective
interlocking.
Control wiring links several trip units in the
distribution network and in the event of a fault, a
trip unit will obey the set delay time only if
receiving a signal from a downstream trip unit.
If the trip unit does not receive a signal, tripping
will be instantaneous (with no intentional delay).
•The fault is cleared instantaneously by the
nearest upstream circuit breaker.
•Thermal stresses (I
2
t) in the network are
minimized without any effect on the correct
time delay coordination of the installation.
Figure 6 shows circuit breakers 1 and 2 zoneselective interlocked.
•A fault at A is seen by circuit breakers 1 and
2. Circuit breaker 2 trips instantaneously and
also informs circuit breaker 1 to obey set
delay times. Thus, circuit breaker 2 trips and
clears the fault. Circuit breaker 1 does not
trip.
•A fault at B is seen by circuit breaker 1.
Circuit breaker 1 trips instantaneously since
it did not receive a signal from the
downstream circuit breaker 2. Circuit breaker
1 trips and clears the fault. Circuit breaker 2
does not trip.
2
NOTE: Use I
t off with ZSI for proper coordination. Using I2t on with ZSI is
not recommended as the delay in the upstream device receiving a restraint
signal could result in the trip unit tripping in a time shorter than the published
trip curve.
NOTE: Setting short-time delay (tsd) or ground-fault delay (tg) to the 0
setting will eliminate selectivity for that circuit breaker.

Long-Time Protection
Long-time protection protects equipment against
overloads.
•Long-time protection is standard on all trip
units.
•The long-time pickup (Ir) (A) sets the
maximum current level (based on sensor
plug rating In) which the circuit breaker can
continuously carry. If current exceeds this
value, circuit breaker will trip after the preset
time delay. The long-time pickup (Ir) is
adjustable from 0.4–1.0 times the sensor
plug rating (In).
•The long-time delay (tr) (B) sets the length of
the time that the circuit breaker will carry an
overcurrent (below the short-time or
instantaneous pickup current level) before
tripping. See Table 1 for delay settings.
•Both long-time pickup and long-time delay
are on the field-replaceable adjustable rating
plug. To change settings to more precisely
match the application, various rating plugs
are available. For instructions on replacing
the rating plug, see Section
5 —Adjustable
Rating Plug Replacement.
•For Masterpact™ NT and NW circuit
breakers, the In value can be changed by
replacing the sensor plug below the trip unit.
For further information, see the instructions
packed with the sensor plug replacement kit.
•The overload indicator light (C) indicates that
the Ir long-time pickup threshold has been
exceeded.
•Long-time protection uses true RMS
measurement.
Thermal imaging provides continuous
temperature rise status of the wiring, both before
and after the device trips. This allows the circuit
breaker to respond to a series of overload
conditions which could cause conductor
overheating, but would go undetected if the
long-time circuit was cleared every time the load
dropped below the pickup setting or after every
tripping event.
NOTE: Micrologic trip units are powered from the circuit to always provide
fault protection. All other functions (display, metering, communications, etc.)
require external power. See 15 for more information.

NOTE: If checking trip times, wait a minimum of 15 minutes after circuit
breaker trips before resetting to allow the thermal imaging to reset
completely to zero or use a full-function test kit to defeat the thermal
imaging.
