General Description
General Circuit Breaker Information
WEG’s molded-case circuit breakers are designed to provide circuit protection for low voltage distribution systems. They are described by NEMA as, “. . . a device for closing and interrupting a circuit between separable contacts under both normal and abnormal conditions,” and further- more as, “. . . a breaker assembled as an integral unit in a supporting and enclosing housing of insulating material.” The NEC® describes them as, “A device designed to open and close a circuit by non-automatic means, and to open the circuit automatically on a predetermined overload of current, without injury to itself when properly applied within its rating.” So designed, WEG circuit breakers protect conductors against overloads and conductors and connected apparatus, such as motors and motor starters, against short circuits.
Circuit Breaker Components and Functions
Being essentially high interrupting capacity switches with repetitive elements, WEG’s circuit breakers are comprised of three main functional components. These are:
1. Trip elements (thermal-magnetic or electronic)
2. Operating mechanism
3. Arc extinguishers
1. Trip Elements
The function of the trip element is to trip the operating mechanism in the event of a prolonged overload or short-circuit current. To accomplish this, a thermal- magnetic trip action is provided.
Thermal-Magnetic Breakers
WEG thermal-magnetic breakers are general purpose devices suitable for the majority of breaker applications and are considered the industry standard. Available from 15–800 A, thermal-magnetic breakers provide accurate reliable overload and short- circuit protection for conductors and connected apparatus. Thermal trip action is achieved through the use of a bimetal heated by the load current. On a sustained over- load, the bimetal will deflect, causing the operating mechanism to trip.
Because bimetals are responsive to the heat emitted by the current flow, they allow a long­time delay on light overloads, yet they have a fast response on heavier overloads.
Magnetic trip action is achieved through the use of an electromagnet in series with the load current. This provides an instantaneous tripping action when the current reaches a predetermined value. Front-adjustable magnetic trip elements are supplied as standard on 250 A frame circuit breakers and above 225 are fixed thermal and magnetic
Electronic RMS Trip Breakers
WEG electronic trip breakers are generally applied for applications where high levels of system coordination are called for. Available from 500–2500 A, today’s electronic trip breakers can provide superior protection and coordination as well as additional protection features. Both the overload trip action and the short-circuit trip action of breakers with Digitrip electronic trip units are achieved by the use of current transformers and solid­state circuitry that monitors the current and initiates tripping through a flux shunt trip when an overload or a short circuit is present. All multiple-pole circuit breakers have trip elements in each pole and a common trip bar. An abnormal circuit condition in any one pole will cause all poles to open simultaneously.
Electronic RMS trip breakers can include trip features such as:
Adjustable long-time pickup
Adjustable short-time pickup
Adjustable long delay time
Adjustable short delay time
Adjustable instantaneous pickup
Trip unit adjustments are made by setting switches on the front of the trip unit or by programming the trip unit electronically. All electronic RMS trip breakers are equipped with a manual push-to-trip mechanism.
Molded-Case Circuit Breakers
2. Operating Mechanism
The function of the operating mechanism is to provide a means of opening and closing the breaker contacts. All mechanisms are of the quick-make, quick-break type and are “trip free.” “Trip free” mechanisms are designed so that the contacts cannot be held closed against an abnormal circuit condition and are sometimes referred to as an “overcenter toggle mechanism.” In addition to indicating whether the breaker is “on” or “off,” the operating mechanism handle indicates when the breaker is “tripped” by moving to a position midway between the extremes. This distinct trip point is particularly advantageous where breakers are grouped, as in panelboard applications, because it clearly indicates the faulty circuit. The operating mechanism contains a positive on feature. In the normal switching operation, the handle of the circuit breaker will not be capable of being left readily at or near the off position when the main contacts are closed.
3. Arc Extinguishers
The function of the DE-ION® arc extinguisher is to confine, divide extinguish the arc drawn between opening breaker contacts. It consists of specially shaped steel grids isolated from each other and supported by an insulating housing. When the contacts are opened, the arc drawn induces a magnetic field in the grids, which in turn draws the arc from the contacts and into the grids. The arc is thus split into a series of smaller arcs and the heat generated is quickly dissipated through the metal. These two actions result in a rapid removal of ions from the arc, which hastens dielectric build- up between the contacts and results in rapid extinction of the arc.

Notes:
1. Curve accuracy applies from –20°C to +55°C ambient. For possible continuous ampere derating for ambient above 40°C, refer to Eaton. Temperatures above +85°C cause an over-temperature protection
trip.
2. Application frequency is 50/60 Hz.
3. There is a memory effect that can act to shorten the Long Delay. If the breaker trips on a Long Delay overload and is quickly reset, the memory capacitor will still have charge and a subsequent overload will cause the breaker to trip in a shorter time than normal. The amount of time delay reduction is inverse to the amount of time that has elapsed since the previous overload. Approximately five minutes is required between overloads to completely reset memory.
4. The right portion of the curve is determined by the interrupting rating of the circuit breaker.
5. The left portion of the curve is shown as a multiple of the Long Delay Setting. (Long Delay Pickup = 115% of Ir ). Range is 110–120%.
6. Total clearing times shown include the response times of the trip unit, the breaker opening, and the interruption of the current.

10. For high fault current levels, an additional fixed instantaneous hardware override is provided to trip the breaker at 14400A. Instantaneous tolerance is +/- 20%. For the 1600A frame only, if Ir is set to the maximum (position H) and SDPU is set to the maximum (position 9), then the SDPU setting and the Instantaneous Override are set to the same value. The Instantaneous Override has precedence over SDPU. Therefore, the breaker will trip on Instantaneous Override.

The lighted blue LED indicates that the lowest setting of the Maintenance Mode is enabled. This setting corresponds to 2.5x of In. Turning the adjustable switch on the trip unit has no affect on either the Maintenance Mode or the INST Mode settings while the blue LED is lit. In addition to the blue colored LED, a relay contact (C, NO) is available. The wires for this contact exit the left hand side of the breaker and are color coded as follows: Blue = C, and Red = NO.

Notes:
1. Curve accuracy applies from –20°C to +55°C ambient. For possible continuous ampere derating for ambient above 40°C, refer to WEG. Temperatures above +85°C cause an over-temperature protection trip.
2. Application frequency is 50/60 Hz.
3. There is a memory effect that can act to shorten the long delay. If the breaker trips on a long delay overload and is quickly reset, the memory capacitor will still have charge, and a subsequent overload will cause the breaker to trip in a shorter time than normal. The amount of time delay reduction is inverse to the amount of time that has elapsed since the previous overload. Approximately five minutes is required between overloads to completely reset memory.
4. The right portion of the curve is determined by the interrupting rating of the circuit breaker.
5. The left portion of the curve is shown as a multiple of the Long Delay Setting. (Long Delay Pickup = 115% of Ir ). Range is 110–120%.
6. Total clearing times shown include the response times of the trip unit, the breaker opening, and the interruption of the current.
7. The short delay pickup has nine settings/positions; 1600A/2000A - 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 8, 9 2500A - 2, 2, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 6, 6
8. For high fault current levels, an additional fixed instantaneous hardware override is provided to trip the breaker at 17,500A. Instantaneous tolerance is ± 20%.
9. Maximum clearing time when using zone selective interlocking is 62ms.

1. Curve accuracy applies from –20°C to +55°C ambient. For possible continuous ampere derating for ambient above 40°C, refer to WEG. Temperatures above +85°C cause an over-temperature protection trip.
2. Application frequency is 50/60 Hz.
3. There is a memory effect that can act to shorten the long delay. If the breaker trips on a long delay overload and is quickly reset, the memory capacitor will still have charge, and a subsequent overload will cause the breaker to trip in a shorter time than normal. The amount of time delay reduction is inverse to the amount of time that has elapsed since the previous overload. Approximately five

4. The right portion of the curve is determined by the interrupting rating of the circuit breaker.
5. The left portion of the curve is shown as a multiple of the Long Delay Setting. (Long Delay Pickup = 115% of Ir ). Range is 110–120%.
6. Total clearing times shown include the response times of the trip unit, the breaker opening, and the interruption of the current.
7. The short delay pickup has nine settings/positions; 1600A/2000A - 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 8, 9 2500A - 2, 2, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 6, 6
8. For high fault current levels, an additional fixed instantaneous hardware override is provided to trip the breaker at 17,500A. Instantaneous tolerance is ± 20%.

Notes:
1. The Maintenance Mode feature must be ENABLED for these curves to apply. The LED indicator is blue when in Maintenance
Mode.
2. The end of the curve is determined by the interrupting rating of the circuit breaker.
3. Total clearing times shown include the response times of the trip
unit, the breaker opening, and the interruption of the current.
4. Available pickup settings ( x I 1600A Frame: 2.5, 4, 6, 7, 8, 8, 11 2000A Frame: 2.5, 4, 6, 7, 8, 8, 9
5. These curves are comprehensive for the complete family of Series G R-F rame electronic breakers, including all frame sizes,
2500
ratings, and constructions. The total clearing times shown are conservative and consider the maximum response times of the trip unit, the circuit breaker opening, and the interruption of the current in worst case conditions such as: maximum rated voltages, single-phase interruption, and minimum power factor. Faster clearing times are possible depending on the specific system conditions.
