Certications
Magnum DS Switchgear assemblies have undergone an extensive seismic qualication program. The test program utilized ANSI standard C37.81, the Uniform Building Code (UBC) and the California Building Code (CBC) as a basis for the test program. The assemblies have been tested and qualied to exceed these requirements. American Bureau of Shipping (ABS) certication ia available for those instances where it is required.

Motor currents are running currents. Inrush is approximately 400%. Motor running time to charge spring approximately 5 seconds.

Maximum voltages at which the interrupting ratings in Table 3 apply are: Table 5. Voltages
System Voltage 208 or 240 480 600 Maximum Voltage 254 508 635

These interrupting ratings are based on the standard duty cycle consisting of an opening operation, a 15-second interval and a close-open operation, in succession, with delayed tripping in case of short-delay devices. The standard duty cycle for short-time ratings consists of maintaining the rated current for two periods of 1/2 second each, with a 15-second interval of zero current between the two periods.

Every Magnum DS trip unit comes standard with LSI characteristics. Optional ground (G) or ground alarm (GA) may also be provided. These trip units also provide the ability to defeat instantaneous protection. In addition, short delay protection may be set to the maximum instantaneous level, effectively disabling short delay protection. Under no condition is it possible to set the trip unit beyond the capabilities of the circuit breaker.

The Rating Plug is for 50 and 60 Hz applications. Rating Plugs are not interchangeable with 60 Hz or 50 Hz only Rating Plugs.

The narrow-band characteristic curve graphically illustrates the close coordination obtainable in breaker systems with Digitrip RMS tripping devices. Repeatability is within 2%. The maximum breaker current rating for any breaker frame size is determined by the rating of the sensor used. The breaker current rating for any frame size can be changed by simply changing the sensors and associated rating plug, which are easily removed from the breaker drawout element. The wide range of long-delay pickup makes one set of sensors more exible on a wider range of loads. The Digitrip RMS itself need not be changed when the associated sensors and rating plugs are changed.

Tolerance on pickup levels are 10% of values shown in chart. For Testing Purposes Only: When using an external single-phase current source to test low level ground fault current settings, it is advisable to use the Auxiliary Power Module (APM). Especially when the single-phase current is low, without the APM it may appear as if the trip unit does not respond until the current is well above the set value, leading the tester to believe there is an error in the trip unit when there is none. The reason this occurs is that the single-phase test current is not a good simulation of the normal three-phase circuit. If three-phase had been owing, the trip unit would have performed correctly. Use the APM for correct trip unit performance when single-phase tests are made.

Notes: 1. There is a memory effect that can act to shorten the Long Delay. The memory effect comes into play if a current above the long delay pick up value exists for a time and then is cleared by the tripping of a downstream device or the circuit breaker itself. A subsequent overload will cause the circuit breaker to trip in 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. 2. The end of the curve is determined by the interrupting rating of the circuit breaker. 3. For the ground fault time/current curve see curve 70C1008. For the Instantaneous see curve 70C1007. 4. The Long Delay Pickup Point (indicated by rapid flashing of Unit Status LED on the product) occurs at 110%, with a 5% tolerance. The Instantaneous settings have conventional 100% 10% at the pick up points. 5.

Circuit Breaker Time/Current Curves (Phase Current)


Magnum and Magnum DS Circuit Breakers Response: Instantaneous Trip This curve is for 50Hz and 60Hz applications. Notes: 1. There is a memory effect that can act to shorten the Long Delay. The memory effect comes into play if a current above the long delay pick up value exists for a time and then is cleared by the tripping of a down stream device or the circuit breaker itself. A subsequent overload will cause the circuit breaker to trip in 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. 2. The end of the curve is determined by the interrupting rating of the circuit breaker. 3. For the ground fault time/current curve see curve 70C1008. 4. This curve is shown as a multiple of the Rating Plug ( In ). 5. The Instantaneous settings have conventional 100% 10% as the pickup points. 6. Total clearing times shown include the response times of the trip unit, the breaker opening and the interruption of the current. 7. Additional settings of OFF and M1 are also available with: Narrow Frame: 200A through 1250A M1 = 14x In 1600A M1 = 12x In 2000A (IEC only) M1 = 12x In Standard Frame: 200A through 1250A M1 = 14x In 1600A, 2000A, 2500A M1 = 12x In 3000A, 3200A M1 = 10x In 4000A (IEC only) M1 = 10x In Double Wide Frame: 2000A, 2500A M1 = 14x In 3200A, 4000A, 5000A M1 = 12x In 6300A (IEC only) M1 = 10x In 8. For Standard Frame having a 100kA rms interruption rating, an additional High Instantaneous Trip Module is provided in the breaker set to pickup at 170kA10% Instantaneous peak current level. This protection is functional even when the Instantaneous is set to the OFF position.

Notes: 1. There is a memory effect that can act to shorten the Long Delay. The memory effect comes into play if a current above the LONG PU value exists for a time and then is cleared by the tripping of a downstream device or the circuit breaker itself. A subsequent overload will cause the circuit 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. 2. This curve shown as a multiple of the LONG PU Setting (Ir). The actual Pickup point (indicated by rapid flashing of Unit Status LED on the product) occurs at 110% of the Ir, current, with a 5% tolerance. LongTIME Curve Equation: Trip = LongTIME *36/ I2, where I is a multiple of Ir. The SHORT TIME function and the LongTIME function act independently and the entire set of LongTIME curves continue to be active even after the curves intersect. 3. With zone interlocking on Short Delay utilized and no restraining signal, the minimum SHORT TIME band (0.10s) applies regardless of the SHORT TIME setting. 4. SHORT PU (Max M1 setting) is a additional setting, based on In (Plug), that can extend out where the SHORT PU will function. Standard Breaker: Double Wide Breaker: 2000A, 2500A M1=14x In 200A through 1250A M1=14x In 1600A, 2000A, 2500A M1=12x In 3200A, 4000A, 5000A M1=12x In 3000A, 3200A . M1=10x In 6300A M1=10x In 5. The SHORT PU points have 100% 5% tolerance. 6. SHORT SLOPE: FLAT Tolerance is +0/ -80 ms for all settings except 0.10s setting is 0.06 to 0.13 0.20s setting is 0.15 to 0.22 7. SHORT SLOPE: I2T 2 I T slope flattens out at 8 x Ir for top of band with FLAT time minimum value prevailing for bottom of band. Curve Trip Equation: Trip = SHORT TIME * 64/ I2, where I is a multiple of Ir (top) Curve Trip Equation: Trip = SHORT TIME * 64/ I2 * 0.70 (bottom) The above equations indicate tolerance is +0/ -30% for all settings except 0.10s is +30%-25% 0.20s is +10%-25% For all curves the lower flat response time value projected to I2T line will determine the other Break Point and shape of the curve. 8. The end of the curve is determined by the interrupting rating of the circuit breaker. 9. Curve applies from -20C to +55C ambient. Temperatures above +85C cause automatic trip. Breaker must be applied according to Continuous Rating at Different Ambient table.

Notes: 1. There is a Long MEMORY (if enabled) effect that can act to shorten the Long Delay. The memory effect comes into play if a current above the LONG PU value exists for a time and then is cleared by the tripping of a downstream device or the circuit breaker itself. A subsequent overload will cause the circuit breaker to trip in 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. 2. This curve is shown as a multiple of LONG PU Setting (Ir). The actual Pickup point occurs at 110% of the Ir, current, with a 5% tolerance. LongTIME Curve Equation: Trip = LongTIME *1296/I4,where I is a multiple of Ir. 3. In this time region 0.5 seconds the I4 T Long TIME function will flatten out and be no faster than the Short TIME setting. This is to avoid a notch in graph. 4. SHORT PU (Max M1 setting) is an additional setting. Standard Breaker: 200A through 1250A M1=14x In 1600A, 2000A, 2500A M1=12x In 3000A, 3200A M1=10x In Double Wide Breaker: 2000A, 2500A M1=14x In 3200A, 4000A, 5000A M1=12x In 6300A M1=10x In 5. The SHORT PU points have conventional 100% 5% tolerance. 6. SHORT TIME: FLAT only - setting 0.1s through 0.5s in .05s increments. Tolerance is +0/ -80 ms of setting except 0.10s setting is 0.06 to 0.13 0.20s setting is 0.15 to 0.22 7. With zone interlocking on Short Delay utilized and no restraining signal, the minimum SHORT TIME band (0.10s) applies regardless of the SHORT TIME setting. 8. The end of the curve is determined by the interrupting rating of the circuit breaker. 9. Curve applies from -20C to +55C ambient. Temperatures above +85C cause automatic trip.

Application
Standards
Magnum DS circuit breakers meet or exceed all applicable requirements of ANSI Standards C37.13, C37.17, C37.50 and CSA.

4. Excessively high or low ambient temperatures. For ambient temperatures exceeding 40C, and based on a standard temperature rise of 65C, the continuous current ratings of breaker frame sizes, and also buses, current transformers, etc., will be subject to a derating factor calculated from the following formula:
105 Total Special Ambient, C --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------105 Total 40C Standard Ambient

System Voltage and Frequency


Magnum DS breakers are designed for operation on ac systems only, 60 Hz or 50 Hz, 635 volts maximum.

Continuous Current Ratings


Unlike transformers, generators and motors, circuit breakers are maximumrated devices and have no built-in temporary overload current ratings. Consequently, it is vital that each application take into consideration the maximum anticipated current demand, initial and future, including temporary overloads. The continuous rating of any Magnum DS breaker is limited to the sensor rating, or the frame size current rating, whichever is the lesser. For instance, an MDS-616 1600 ampere frame breaker with 800 ampere sensors has a maximum continuous rating of 800 amperes, but the same breaker with 1600 ampere sensors is limited to 1600 amperes maximum. All current ratings are based on a maximum ambient air temperature of 40C (104F).

Unusual Environmental and Operating Conditions


Special attention should be given to applications subject to the following conditions: 1. Damaging or hazardous fumes, vapors, etc. 2. Excessive or abrasive dust. For such conditions, it is generally recommended that the switchgear be installed in a clean, dry room, with ltered and/or pressurized clean air. This method permits the use of standard indoor switchgear and avoids the derating effect of non-ventilated enclosures. 3. Salt spray, excessive moisture, dripping, etc. Drip shields in equipment rooms and space heaters in indoor switchgear, or outdoor weatherproof enclosures, may be indicated, depending upon the severity of the conditions.

Circuit breakers are not adversely affected by very low outdoor ambient temperatures, particularly when energized and carrying load currents. The standard space heaters in weatherproof switchgear will raise the temperature slightly and prevent condensation. Electrical components such as relays and instruments, however, must be applied within the manufacturers specied limits. 5. Exposure to Seismic Shock. Magnum DS assemblies and breakers have been certied for applications through UBC Zone 4 and for the California Building Code. Assembly modications may be required, so such conditions must be specied. 6. Abnormally high frequency of operation. In line with above, a lesser number of operations between servicing, and more frequent replacement of parts, may be indicated.

Ambient Temperature
The temperature of the air surrounding the enclosure should be within the limits of: -30C (-22F) to +40C (104F).

Altitude
The breakers are applicable at their full voltage and current ratings up to a maximum altitude of 6,600 feet (2,012 m) above sea level. When installed at higher altitudes, the ratings are subject to the following correction factors in accordance with ANSI C37.20.1.

Application (Continued)
Unit Substations
Most Magnum DS Switchgear Assemblies are congured as unit substations. A Unit Substation, as referred to in this publication, is dened as a coordinated assembly consisting of 3-phase transformers with high voltage incoming line sections and an assembly of low voltage distribution sections, with the following parameters: Transformer kVA 112.5 through 3750 s Low Voltage 208, 240, 480 or 600V

Technical Data
Effective: March 2003 Page 15

Why Unit Substations?


Unit substations follow the system concept of locating transformers as close as practicable to areas of load concentration at utilization voltages, thus minimizing the lengths of secondary distribution cables and buses. This concept provides several basic advantages, such as:
s s s s s s s

Transition Sections
All indoor Unit Substations utilizing liquid lled transformers require an 12-inch (305 mm) or 22-inch (559 mm) wide transition section. The center line location of the Iow voltage throat is based upon the depth of the Magnum DS assembly. In many indoor applications, it is desirable to minimize oor space by eliminating the need for a transformer transition section. For these situations, Magnum DS switchgear is designed to accommodate close coupling to drytype transformers if their low voltage terminations conform to a specic vertically oriented arrangement. This conguration may be provided if: (1) additional space is not required for auxiliary devices such as grounding resistors, instrumentation, etc.; (2) zero sequence ground fault is not applied on main breakers; (3) connection to assemblies with no main breaker do not utilize A or B position feeder breakers; (4) adequate conduit space is available for any top exit cable connections in this section.

Unit Substations may be indoor or outdoor, with a selection of highvoltage incoming sections, a choice of transformer types and an arrangement of Magnum DS Switchgear to suit the application.

Reduced power losses. Improved voltage regulation. Improved service continuity. Reduced likelihood of faults. Increased exibility. Minimized installation expense. Availability of non-ammable types of transformers eliminates necessity of vaults. Efcient space utilization.

B. Primary Selective Radial


Similar to simple radial, with the added advantage of spare primary incoming cable circuit. By switching to spare circuit, duration of outage from cable failure is limited.

Figure 9. Primary Selective Radial

C. Secondary Selective
Normally operates as two electrically independent unit substations, with bus tie breaker (T) open, and with approximately half of total load on each bus. In case of failure of either primary incoming circuit, only one bus is affected, and opening main breaker (M) on dead bus and closing tie breaker (T) can promptly restore service. This operation can be made automatic, with duration of outage on either bus limited to a few seconds. Since the transformers are not continuously paralleled, secondary fault currents and breaker application are similar to those on radial unit substations.

Figure 10. Secondary Selective If required, and equipped with the appropriate relaying, either transformer can be removed from service and isolated with no interruption of service on either bus, by rst closing the tie breaker and then opening the associated main breaker. Service continuity and substation capacity can be further improved by substituting selector type primary switches, shown above in B.

D. Spot Network
The transformers are paralleled through network protectors. In case of primary voltage failure, the associated protector automatically opens. The other protector remains closed, and there is no dead time on the bus, even momentarily. When primary voltage is restored, the protector automatically checks for synchronism and recloses.

Figure 11. Secondary Selective Secondary voltage regulation is improved by paralleled transformers. s Secondary fault capability is increased by paralleled transformers, and the feeder breakers and bus bracing must be selected accordingly.

Primary switches are usually selector or duplex type, so that transformers can be transferred to alternate live sources, thus shortening duration of overloads.

Application (Continued)
System Application
Most Magnum DS Switchgear is fed from power transformers. To facilitate minimum breaker sizing, Table 12 Iists the calculated secondary short circuit currents and applicable main secondary and feeder breakers for various transformer sizes and voltages. The short circuit currents are calculated by dividing the transformer basic (100%) rated amperes by the sum of the transformer and primary system impedances, expressed in per unit. The transformer impedance percentages are standard for most secondary unit substation transformers. The primary impedance is obtained by dividing the transformer base (100%) kVA by the primary short circuit kVA. The motor contributions to the short circuit currents are estimated as approximately 4 times the motor load amperes, which in turn are based upon 50% of the total load for 208 system voltages and 100% for all other voltages. High transformer impedances and/or lower percentages of motor loads will reduce the short circuit currents correspondingly. Supplementary transformer cooling and temperature ratings will not increase the short circuit currents, provided the motor loads are not increased. The tables do not apply for 3-phase banks of single-phase distribution transformers, which usually have impedances of 2% to 3% or even lower. The short circuit currents must be recalculated for all such applications, and the breakers selected accordingly.

Technical Data
Effective: March 2003 Page 17

Transformer Main Secondary Breakers


Transformer secondary breakers are required or recommended for one or more of the following purposes: 1. To provide a one-step means of removing all load from the transformer. 2. To provide transformer overload protection in the absence of an individual primary breaker, and/or when primary fuses are used. 3. To provide the fastest clearing of a short circuit in the secondary main bus. 4. To provide a local disconnecting means, in the absence of a local primary switch or breaker, for maintenance purposes. 5. For automatic or manual transfer of loads to alternate sources, as in double-ended secondary selective unit substations. 6. For simplifying key interlocking with primary interrupter switches. 7. To satisfy NEC service entrance requirements when more than six feeder breakers are required. Main secondary breakers, as selected in Table 12, have adequate interrupting ratings, but not necessarily adequate continuous current ratings. They should be able to carry continuously not only the anticipated maximum continuous output of the transformer but also any temporary overloads. For a fully selective system, instantaneous protection on main breakers should be defeated, as they typically cannot be coordinated with downstream devices. Maximum capabilities of transformers of various types, in terms of kVA and secondary current, are given in Table 12. It will be noted that the maximum ratings will often require the substitution of larger frame main breakers than those listed in the tables. Even if a selfcooled transformer only is considered, it should be remembered that with ratings of 750 kVA and higher, provision for the future addition of cooling fans is automatically included. It is recommended that the main breaker have sufcient capacity for the future fan-cooled rating, plus an allowance for overloads, if possible, particularly since load growth cannot always be predicted. The same considerations should be given to the main bus capacities and main current transformer ratios.

Bus Sectionalizing (Tie) Breakers


The minimum recommended continuous current rating of bus sectionalizing or tie breakers, as used in doubleended secondary selective unit substations, or for connecting two singleended substations, is one-half that of the associated main breakers. The interrupting rating should be at least equal to that of the feeder breakers. It is common practice to select the tie breaker of the next frame size below that of the main breakers. However, many users and engineers prefer that the tie breaker be identical to and interchangeable with the main breakers, so that under normal conditions it will be available as a spare main breaker. In general, the tie breaker, like the main breaker, trip unit should have its instantaneous tripping defeated.

Automatic Transfer Schemes


Often loads are fed from multiple sources, most often a primary source and an alternate source. In cases where the power source is required to transfer between the normal and alternate source automatically, a transfer system must be utilized. Of course, electrically operated main breakers are necessary to accomplish this transfer. Suggested transfer logic, description and features for such a transfer is given in the following paragraphs. Certain loads or plant processes may dictate a different scheme.

Dual Source, No Tie, Open Transition


The logic of the transfer system functions via a microprocessor. The set points are eld adjustable without the use of special tools. A digital readout displays each option as it is functioning. Readouts display actual line-to-line voltage, line frequency and timers. When timers are functioning, the microprocessor displays the timer counting down. All set points can be re-programmed from the front of the logic panel when the transfer system is in the program mode. A test pushbutton is included as part of the microprocessor. The microprocessor is compatible with a Cutler-Hammer PowerNet communications system.

If closed transition mode is selected all three breakers may be closed for an adjustable time delay (5 60 seconds). The operator may open the desired breaker via its pushbutton or the system will open the tie breaker after the time delay has expired.]

Feeder Breakers General


Circuit breakers for feeder circuit protection may be manually or electrically operated, with long and short delay or long delay and instantaneous type trip devices, and trip settings, as required for the specic circuit and load requirements. Feeder breakers as selected in Table 12 have adequate interrupting ratings, and are assumed to have adequate continuous current ratings for maximum load demands. General purpose feeder breakers, such as for lighting circuits, are usually equipped with long delay and instantaneous trip devices, with the long delay pickup set for the maximum load demand in the circuit. Where arcing fault protection is required, the instantaneous trip setting should be as low as practicable consistent with inrush requirements.

Generator Breakers
In most applications where generators are connected through breakers to the secondary bus, they are used as emergency standby sources only, and are not synchronized or paralleled with the unit substation transformers. Under these conditions, the interrupting rating of the generator breaker will be based solely on the generator kVA and sub-transient reactance. This reactance varies with the generator type and rpm, from a minimum of approximately 9% for a 2-pole 3600 rpm turbine driven generator to 15% or 20% or more for a medium or slow speed engine type generator. Thus the feeder breakers selected for the unit substation will usually be adequate for a standby generator of the same kVA as the transformer. Most generators have a 2-hour 25% overload rating, and the generator breaker must be adequate for this overload current. Selective type long and short delay trip protection only is usually recommended for coordination with the feeder breakers, with the long delay elements set at 125% to 150% of the maximum generator current rating for generator protection. In the case of two or more paralleled generators, anti-motoring reverse power relays (device 32) are recommended for protection of the prime movers, particularly piston type engines. For larger generators requiring a Magnum MDS-632 or larger, voltage-restraint type overcurrent relays (device 51V) are recommended.

Motor Starting Feeder Breakers


These breakers are usually electrically operated, with long delay and instantaneous tripping characteristics for motor running, locked rotor and fault protection. The breaker sensor rating should be chosen so that the long delay pickup can be set at 125% of motor full load current for motors with a 1.15 service factor, or at 115% for all other motors. Contactors are recommended for this application when there are a number of daily operations involved. When system short circuits are less than 40 times the motor full load current, the motor breaker tripping characteristic should include a short delay characteristic for greater fault protection.

Group Motor Feeder Breakers


Typical loads for such circuits are motor control centers. The feeder breakers may be either manually or electrically operated as preferred, and are usually equipped with long and short delay trip protection only for coordination with the individual motor circuit devices. The minimum long delay pickup setting should be 115% of the running current of the largest motor in the group, plus the sum of the running circuits of all other motors.

Distribution Systems
The power distribution in 3-phase low voltage systems can be 3- or 4-wire distribution. The 3-wire distribution can be served from either delta or wye sources, but the 4-wire distribution is obtained from wye solidly grounded source only. Diagram 1 in Figure 12 shows 3-wire distribution with delta source and Diagram 2 in Figure 12 shows 3-wire distribution with wye source. It is signicant on Diagram 2 in Figure 12, that the wye connection of a transformer secondary does not necessarily mean 4-wire distribution in switchgear. This is worthwhile to note because 4-wire distribution is quite frequently assumed when the transformer secondary is wye connected. The low voltage system is 3-phase 4-wire distribution only if a fourth wire is carried through the switchgear, the transformer neutral is solidly grounded, and single-phase loads are connected to feeder breakers. This fourth wire is the neutral bus. The neutral bus is connected to the neutral of the wye connected transformer secondary as shown on Diagram 3 in Figure 12. Three- or 4-wire sources can be grounded or ungrounded in service. Generally, where the source is delta connected it is ungrounded, but in some very rare cases it is grounded at one corner of the delta, or at some other point. When the source is wye connected it can be grounded or ungrounded, and when grounded, the grounding is at the neutral. When low voltage systems are grounded they are generally solidly grounded; however, occasionally the grounding is through a resistor. Three- and 4-wire solidly grounded systems are shown on Diagrams 3 and 4 in Figure 12. Most installations are solidly grounded. Solidly grounded systems have the advantage of being the easiest to maintain, yet have the potential for producing extremely high fault levels. When feeding critical facilities, or continuous industrial processes, it is sometimes preferable to allow

the system to continue operating when a phase conductor goes to ground. There are two methods of accommodating this application; the source transformer may either be left ungrounded or high resistance grounded. If the correct system conditions of inductance and capacitance manifests themselves, arcing ground on ungrounded systems can produce escalating line-to-ground voltages, which in turn can lead to insulation breakdown in other devices. This condition is known as ferroresonance. The high resistance grounded system does not suffer from this potential phenomenon. Regardless of which system is selected, both require the application of an appropriate UL recognized ground detection method. Upon grounding of one of the phase conductors, the detection device alerts operators of the condition. Personnel trained to locate these grounds can do so and remove the ground when the process permits, and before a second ground occurs on another phase.

Application (Continued)
Since ungrounded and resistance grounded systems produce minimal ground current, no damage occurs to the grounded equipment. These ground currents are also too low for detection by integral trip unit ground elements, therefore serve no ground fault tripping function if applied on these systems. Ground fault elements on these types of systems can, however, provide supplemental protection. If a second ground occurs on another phase, and exceeds the ground element pickup setting, the ground element can serve as a more sensitive short delay trip. Ungrounded or resistance grounded systems can not be applied as 4-wire networks. Even if supplied from a 4-wire source, no line-to-neutral loads may be served. These applications are limited to 3-wire distribution systems only. is selected, good ground fault protection will be ensured.

The Ground Element


The ground element of the solid-state trip unit is in addition to the usual phase protection. The ground element has adjustable pickup with calibrated marks as shown in Tables 8 and 9 and adjustable time delay. The input current to the trip unit can be provided by: A. Residual connection of phase sensors, with the residual circuit connected to the ground element terminals. This is the Magnum DS Low Voltage Switchgear standard ground protection system for 3wire systems. On 4-wire systems, standard ground fault protection includes a fourth neutral sensor. It is connected to vectorally subtract from the residual current of the phase sensors. Its only function is to sense neutral currents. It does not sense ground current. These systems produce pickup values as shown in Table 8. B. External ground sensing current transformers connected to the ground element terminals. This means that this external ground sensor will trip the breaker whenever its secondary output current exceeds the values shown in Table 9. Tripping is independent of phase currents. The lower the CT ratio, the more sensitive the ground fault protection.

ground protection. This would result in excellent ground protection because ground elements of Magnum DS and downstream breakers having similar tripping characteristics can be coordinated. Depending on the sensitivity of the ground fault protection method applied, coordination between Magnum DS breaker ground elements and downstream branch circuit fuses is sometimes impractical. This is due to the basic fact that the blowing of one phase fuse will not clear a ground on a 3-phase system. The other 2-phase fuses will let the load singlephase, and also continue to feed the ground through the load, as shown in Diagram 5 in Figure 12.

High Resistance Grounding


Where continuity of service is a high priority, high resistance grounding can add the safety of a grounded system while minimizing the risk of service interruptions due to grounds. The concept is a simple one: provide a path for ground current via a resistance that limits the current magnitude, and monitor to determine when an abnormal condition exists. The ground current path is provided at the point where the service begins, by placing resistance in the connection from system neutral to ground. Control equipment continuously measures ground current. A relay detects when the current exceeds a predetermined level. An alarm alerts building personnel that a ground exists. The system has built-in fault tracing means to assist in nding the source of the ground. An integral transformer provides control power from the primary source.

Need for Ground Fault Protection


If the magnitude of all ground currents would be large enough to operate the short delay or instantaneous elements of the phase overcurrent trip devices, there would be no need for separate ground fault protection on solidly grounded systems. Unfortunately, because low magnitude ground currents are quite common, this is not the case. Low level ground currents can exist if the ground is in the winding of a motor or a transformer, or if it is a high impedance ground. Low level ground currents may also be due to an arcing type ground. The arcing type grounds are the source of the most severe damages to electrical equipment. The lower limit of the arcing ground currents is unpredictable and the magnitude may be considerably below the setting of the breaker phase overcurrent trip devices. It is for this reason that the National Electrical Code, and UL, require ground fault protection for all service disconnect breakers rated 1000 amperes and greater, applied on systems with greater than 150 volts line-to-ground. Since the breaker phase overcurrent trip devices cannot provide sensitive enough protection against low magnitude ground faults, there is a need for an additional protective device. This additional device is not to operate on normal overloads and it is to be sensitive and fast enough to protect against low magnitude grounds. It is also important that this additional ground protecting device be simple and reliable. If the Magnum DS breaker solid-state tripping system including an optional ground element

Ground Fault Protection Application and Coordination


In all power systems, continuity of service is very important. For reliable service continuity, selective tripping is applied between main, tie, and feeder breakers, and downstream protecting devices, for phase-to-phase faults. Similar selective tripping is desirable when breakers trip on grounds. The application of ground protection only to main breakers may ensure good ground protection. However, it will not provide good service continuity because the main breaker will trip on grounds that should have been cleared by feeder breakers. For proper protection and for good service continuity, main, tie and feeder breakers all should be equipped with ground fault protection. In view of the above, it is evident that properly applied ground protection requires ground elements as far down the system to the loads as practical. For best results, downstream molded case breakers should have individual

600 Volt (Maximum) Delta Systems


To add high resistance grounding to an ungrounded delta-connected system, a neutral point must be created. Three single-phase transformers can be interconnected in a zigzag or wyebroken delta conguration to provide such a neutral point. The transformers and grounding resistors are chosen to limit the ground current to a maximum value of 5 amperes.
Note: The neutral point may not be used to serve phase-to-neutral loads. Also, this technique may be applied on wyeconnected sources when the neutral point is not conveniently accessible from the service entrance location.

Indication and Alarm Circuits
When a fault is detected, an adjustable time delay is provided to override transients. When the time delay has been exceeded, the green normal light will turn off, the red ground fault light will turn on, and the ground alarm contacts will transfer. If equipped with the optional alarm horn, it will sound. When the fault is cleared, the current/ voltage relay will reset. If the reset control is set on auto, the lights will return to normal on, ground fault off, and the ground alarm contacts will re-transfer. If the reset control is set on manual, the lights and relay contacts will remain latched until the operator turns the reset control to reset. The lights and ground alarm contacts will then return to normal. The system can be reset only if the fault has been cleared. During a fault, the optional alarm horn can be silenced at any time by using the alarm silence pushbutton. It will not re-sound until either the system is reset, or the re-alarm timer expires. The re-alarm timer is activated by the alarm silence control. If the horn has been silenced but the fault has not been cleared, the timer will run. It has a range of 2 48 hours. When the timer times out, the horn will resound, alerting maintenance personnel that the fault has not been cleared.

Application (Continued)
600/347 Volt (Maximum) Wye Systems
To add high resistance grounding to a wye-connected system, resistors are placed in series with the neutralto-ground connection of the power source. The resistors are chosen to limit the current to a maximum value of 5 amperes.
Note: Per 1993 NEC 250-5b, Exception No. 5, line-to-neutral loads may not be connected to a system where the neutral is resistance-grounded.

Pulser Circuit
The pulser circuit offers a convenient means to locate the faulted feeder and trace the fault to its origin. The pulser is available any time a fault has been detected. An adjustable recycle timer controls the pulse intervals. The pulse light ashes on and off, corresponding to the on-off cycles of the pulser contactor. The pulser contactor switches a bank of resistors on and off, thus allowing a momentary increase in the ground current (approximately a 5 ampere current pulse above the ground current).

Ground Current Detection


Any time a system is energized, a small ground current called the capacitive charging current will be observed. For low voltage (600V and below) systems, this naturallyoccurring current is typically 1 ampere or less. When one phase becomes grounded, additional current above the charging level will ow. As all ground current must ow through the grounding resistor/grounding transformer assembly, an ammeter in this circuit will read the total amount of ground current. By placing a current-sensing relay in series with the ammeter, the current relay can be adjusted to pick up at a level in excess of the capacitive charging current, thus indicating the abnormal condition. Alternatively, an optional voltmeterrelay can be connected across the grounding resistors. The voltage across the resistors is proportional to the amount of ground current. The voltmeter-relays pickup adjustment is set above the capacitive charging current, to the desired detection level. In both current and voltage detection methods, the ground current ammeter provides a direct reading of the total, actual ac ground current present in the system at that time. It will be helpful to periodically note the ammeters reading; a trend towards higher values may indicate the need for equipment maintenance, and hence reduce the occurrence of unplanned shutdowns.

Locating a Ground Fault


The current pulses can be noted with a clamp-on ammeter when the ammeter is placed around the cables or conduit feeding the fault. The operator tests each conduit or set of cables until the pulsing current is noted. By moving the ammeter along the conduit, or checking the conduit periodically along its length, the fault can be traced to its origin. The fault may be located at the point where the pulsing current drops off or stops. If little or no change in the pulsing current is noted along the entire length of a cable, then the fault may be in the connected load. If the load is a panelboard, distribution switchboard or motor control center, repeat the process of checking all outgoing cable groups to nd the faulted feeder. If the fault is not found in an outgoing feeder, the fault may be internal to that equipment.
Note: It may not be possible to precisely locate faults within a conduit. The ground current may divide into many components, depending on the number of cables per phase, number of conduits per feeder, and the number and resistance of each ground point along the conduits. The resulting currents may be too small to allow detection, or may take a path that the ammeter cannot trace. An important note to keep in mind is that while the pulser can greatly aid in locating a fault, there may be certain conditions under which the pulses cannot be readily traced, and other test procedures (megohm, high-potential, etc.) may be needed.

Test Circuit
A test circuit is provided to allow the user to quickly determine that the system is working properly. The test circuit will operate only under normal conditions it will not allow testing if the system is sensing a fault. A separate grounding resistor is provided, connected to a relay operated by the test position of the mode selector switch. The relays contact grounds Phase B through the test resistor, causing ground current to ow. The system then reacts as it would under actual system ground conditions: lights transfer, alarm contacts transfer and the (optional) horn sounds.

Ground Fault
When the sensing circuit detects a fault, the green normal light will turn off and the red ground fault light will turn on. The ground current ammeter will indicate the total ground current. To use the pulser, turn the system control switch to pulse. The pulser contactor will cycle on and off as control-led by the recycle timer relay. Use the clamp-on ammeter to locate the faulted feeder. Open the feeder and clear the fault. If the reset control switch is in the manual position, turn it to reset to reset the sensing circuit. (If reset control is in auto, it will reset itself.) When ready to restore service to the load, close the feeder. Return the system control to normal.

Test
Turn and hold the system control switch in the test position. Phase B will be grounded via the test resistor. The ground current will activate the sensing circuit, causing the green normal light to turn off and the red ground fault light to turn on. The pulser will be activated as well. The white pulse light will turn on and off as the pulser contactor closes and opens. The ground current ammeter will display the total ground current, including the incremental pulse current. When ready, return the system control switch to normal. The pulser will stop. If the reset control is in the manual position, turn it to reset to reset the fault sensing circuit. The red ground fault light will turn off, and the green normal light will turn on. Test mode is not available if the system is detecting a ground. The sensing circuit will disable the test circuit.

During fault conditions, each trip unit that senses the fault sends a restraining signal to all upstream trip units. This restraining signal results in causing the upstream trip to continue timing as it is set. In the absence of a restraining signal, the trip unit trips the associated breaker with no intentional time delay, minimizing damage to the fault point. This restraining signal is a very low level. To minimize the potential for induced noise, and to provide a low impedance interface between trip units, special twisted pair conductors are utilized for interconnection. For this reason, zone selective interlocking must be specied. Ground fault and short delay pickup on Digitrip Trip Units may be specied with zone selective interlocking. Since most system faults start as arcing ground faults, zone selective interlocking on ground fault pickup only is usually adequate. Zone selective interlocking on short delay pickup may be utilized where no ground fault protection is provided. Zone selective interlocking may be applied as a type of bus differential protection. It must be recognized, however, that one must accept the minimum pickup of the trip unit for sensitivity. It must also be recognized that not all systems may be equipped with zone selective Interlocking. Systems containing multiple sources, or where the direction of power ow varies, require special considerations, or may not be suitable for this feature. Digitrip zone interlocking has been tested with up to three levels with up to 20 trip units per level.

Zone Selective Interlocking (ZSI)


By denition, a selectively coordinated system is one where by adjusting trip unit pickup and time delay settings, the circuit breaker closest to the fault trips rst. The upstream breaker serves two functions: 1. Back-up protection to the downstream breaker. 2. Protection of the conductors between the upstream and downstream breakers. These elements are provided for on Digitrip trip units. For faults that occur on the conductors between the upstream and downstream breakers it is ideally desirable for the upstream breaker to trip with no time delay. This is the feature provided by zone selective interlocking. Digitrip trip units may be specied to utilize this option. Zone selective interlocking is a communication signal between trip units applied on upstream and downstream breakers. Each trip unit must be applied as if zone selective interlocking were not employed, and set for selective coordination.

When a top-of-gear breaker lifter is used, height is 99 inches (2515 mm) total. When bus ducts out of the feeder sections are required, the depth of the lineup may increase and vertical stacking may be affected. Refer to the Cutler-Hammer business. Vertical section bus is sized per main cross bus maximum rating or by ANSI C37.20.1 section 7.4.1.3 (Table 11) to a maximum of 5000 ampere.

Any compartment can be a blank or 22-inch (559 mm) wide instrument compartment with the following exception: A 44-inch (1118 mm) wide instrument compartment must be adjacent to another 44-inch (1118 mm) wide compartment or the only 44-inch (1118 mm) wide compartment in the structure. Conrm that there is sufcient conduit space for all layout congurations. A transition section is required if connecting to a non-standard dry-type transformer or auxiliary and metering devices are to be located in a transition section or there is a re pump breaker required or there is zero sequence ground fault required. A maximum of (2) 3200 ampere breakers are permitted per 22-inch (559 mm) width of switchgear, one of which must be a main or tie. A 3200 ampere frame breaker cannot be mounted in the same enclosure with a 4000 ampere main or tie. For a 3200 ampere frame breaker mounted in the same enclosure with a 5000 or 6000 ampere main or tie, contact the Cutler-Hammer business. Fixed mounted main breakers are not permitted in the D position.

Contact the Cutler-Hammer business for placement of 2000 ampere frame breaker in this compartment. A maximum of (3) 2000 ampere breakers per 22-inch (559 mm) width of switchgear. If (3) are required, positions B, C and D must be utilized. If you have 4-wire service and service entrance requirement, busway connection or cable connection, the bus or cables must enter from the top. Service entrance option is not available with feeder breakers mounted in this structure. If you have 4-wire service and service entrance requirement, busway connection or cable connection, the bus or cables must enter from the bottom. Busway or cable entrance must be from the top. B and D position feeders must be reverse fed. Indicate on your elevation drawing if this compartment is to be a main or tie breaker.

Through the Door Design
The following functions may be performed without the need to open the circuit breaker door: levering the breaker between positions, operate manual charging system and view the spring charge status ag, close and open breaker, view and adjust trip unit and read the breaker rating nameplate.

Features
Structure
Standard Finish
Gray paint nish (ANSI 61) using a modern completely automated and continuously monitored electrostatic powder coating. This continually monitored system includes spray de-grease and clean, spray rinse, iron phosphate spray coating spray rinse, non-chemical seal, oven drying, electrostatic powder spray paint coating and oven curing.

Four Position Drawout


Breakers can be in connected, test, disconnected or removed position. The breaker compartment door can be closed in the connected, test and disconnected positions.

Closing Spring Automatic Discharge


Mechanical interlocking automatically discharges the closing springs when the breaker is removed from its compartment.

Optional Safety Shutters


Positive acting safety shutters which isolate the breaker connections to the main bus when the breaker is withdrawn from the cell is an option offered for additional safety beyond our standard design. Insulating covers (boots) are furnished on live main stationary disconnecting contacts in compartments equipped for future breakers.

Integral Base
The rugged formed base greatly increases the rigidity of the structure and reduces the possibility of damage during the installation of the equipment and is suitable for rolling, jacking and handling. A lifting angle is permanently welded into the bus compartment structure for increased strength.

Breaker Inspection
When withdrawn on the rails, breaker is completely accessible for visual inspection; tilting is not necessary. The rails are permanent parts of every breaker compartment. Interference interlocks are supplied on breakers and in compartments where the compartments are of the same physical size to ensure an incorrect breaker cannot be inserted.

Heavy Duty Door Hinges


Each breaker door is mounted with hinge pins. Removal of the door is easily accomplished by just lifting the hinge pin. This allows easy access to the breaker internal compartment for inspection and maintenance.
Through-the-Door Design

Front Accessible
When the door is open or removed each breaker compartment provides front access to isolated, vertical wireways, primary disconnects, cell current transformers and other breaker compartment accessories for ease of eld wiring and troubleshooting eld connections.

Key Interlock (Switchgear Mounted)


Breaker can be stored in compartment, and completely removed for maintenance or for use as a spare without disturbing the interlock. No modication of the breaker required. This mechanism holds the breaker mechanically trip-free to prevent electrical or manual closing. An additional single cylinder breaker mounted key interlock is also available as an option.

Optional Mechanical Interlock


Heavy Duty Hinge Pins

Available between adjacent breakers.

Rear Cover/Doors
In Magnum DS Switchgear standard rear covers with captive hardware are the bolt-on type. They are split into two sections to facilitate handling during removal and installation. Optional rear doors are also available.

All joints are bolted and secured with Belleville-type spring washers for maximum joint integrity. These washers reduce the potential of joint hardware loosening during the change of joint temperature associated with variations of the loads.

Optional Conductor Insulation Covering


For applications requiring additional bus protection in harsh environments, Magnum DS Switchgear is designed for the addition of optional conductor insulation covering, in addition to providing full UL air clearance without insulation. This material is applied during the assembly of the bus and covers all vertical and horizontal phase bus bars. Removable boots provide access to section-to-section bus joints for inspection and maintenance purposes.

Full Neutral
For 4-wire applications, the neutral bus is rated 100% of main bus rating as a standard, up to a maximum ampere rating of 6000 amperes.

Bus Ampacities
Vertical and cross bus ratings in Magnum DS are 2000, 3200, 4000, and 5000 amperes. In addition, 6000, 8000 and 10,000 ampere cross bus ratings are available.

Ground
A ground bus is furnished the full length of the switchgear assembly and is tted with terminals for purchasers connections.

Bus Bracing
Unique vertical bus conguration provides an optional industry leading short circuit withstand rating of 200,000 amperes without the need for preceding current limiting fuses. Standard bracing is 100,000 amperes. The U shaped bar is the heart of the Magnum DS vertical bus. This conguration provides a much higher mechanical strength. To further demonstrate the strength and rigidity of this bus system, it has been veried through testing to withstand 85,000 amperes short circuit for a full 60 cycles.

Glass Reinforced Polyester and Ultramid Stand-Off Insulation System


Glass reinforced polyester has been used on both low and medium voltage switchgear for decades. By combining this industry proven material with Ultramid insulation, a total system providing exceptional mechanical and dielectric withstand strength, as well as high resistance to heat, ame, and moisture, is produced. Substantial testing to demonstrate accelerated effects of heating and cooling on the mechanical and dielectric properties of this system prove it to provide superior performance for decades of trouble-free operation.

Silver Plating
Bolted, silver-plated copper main buses are standard. The plating is over the entire length of the bar, not just at the joints. Optional tin-plated copper buses are available.

Optional Insulated Bus

Barriers
Optional grounded metal barriers isolate the main bus and connections from the cable compartment providing added safety to the workers while reducing the potential of objects falling into the bus compartment.

Levering Mechanism
The worm gear levering mechanism is self-contained on the breaker drawout element and engages slots in the breaker compartment. A removable crank is used to lever the breaker between the connected, test and disconnected positions. Mechanical interlocking is arranged so that levering cannot be accomplished unless the breaker is in the opened position. Stored energy is energy held in waiting, ready to open or close the breaker within ve cycles or less. The unique cam and spring design provides necessary energy for a single close-open sequence as well as the energy for multiple charge-close operations such as this possible sequence: charge-close-rechargeopen-close-open. The closing springs are interlocked with the breaker racking mechanism to insure the closing springs are discharged before the breaker can be removed from the compartment.

Features (Continued)
Breaker
Contacts
The Magnum DS has silver tungsten moving contacts and silver graphite stationary contacts. The contacts provide a long-wearing, low-resistance joint. The contacts are protected from arcing damage even after repeated interruptions by the heel-toe action which causes the integral arcing contacts to mate before the main contacts part. The arcing contacts then part last, striking the arc away from the main contacts. The main contacts are of the butt type and are composed of a multiplicity of ngers to give many points of contact without alignment being critical.

Protection During Levering Operation


When levering the breaker between the connected, test and disconnected positions, the operator is protected from contact with live parts by the breaker door.

Manually Operated Breakers


Manually operated breakers are equipped with a manual charging handled to charge the closing springs. Manual closing and tripping pushbuttons are utilized to operate the breaker. Remote closing and tripping can be accomplished by installing optional electric spring release and shunt trip coils (see Table 4 for available control voltages, currents and motor-operated spring charging times). The breaker closing springs must be charged manually, then remote closing and tripping signals can be sent to the breaker.

Electrically Operated Breakers


Electrically operated breakers are equipped with a spring charging motor and electrically operated spring release and shunt trip coils (see Table 4 for available control voltages, currents and motor-operated spring charging times). The breaker manual charging handle can be used to charge the closing springs when power is not available to the charging motor.

Magnum DS Breaker Contacts (Arc Chutes Removed)

Levering Magnum DS Breaker

True Two-Step Stored Energy Closing


Refers to the sequence required to charge and close the breaker. 1. The breaker closing springs are charged either through the manual-charging handle or by the optional charging motor. The breaker is mechanically interlocked to prevent closing of the breaker until the closing springs are fully charged. 2. With the closing springs fully charged, the breaker can then be closed by pressing the manual close pushbutton on the breaker, or by the optional spring release coil through a remote electrical signal. This means that the energy required to open the breaker is always prestored following a closing operation.

Stored-Energy Mechanism
A cam-type closing mechanism closes the breaker. It receives its energy from a spring that can be charged by a manual handle on the front of the breaker or by a universal electric motor. Release of the stored energy is accomplished by manually depressing a button on the front of the breaker or electrically energizing a releasing solenoid.

Provisions for Padlocking


All breakers include provision for padlocking open to prevent electrical or manual closing. This padlocking can secure the breaker in the connected, test or disconnected position by preventing levering of the breaker.

Ease of Inspection and Maintenance


Magnum DS breakers are designed for maximum accessibility and the utmost ease of inspection and maintenance.

Arc Chute
There are three basic means of extinguishing an arc: lengthening the arc path; cooling by gas blast or contraction; deionizing or physically removing the conduction particles from the arc path. The DE-ION principle is incorporated in all Magnum DS circuit breakers. This makes possible faster arc extinction for a given contact travel, ensures positive interruption and minimum contact burning.

Magnum DS Switchgear Trip Units Digitrip RMS Trip Unit
The Digitrip RMS trip units feature a dependent curve that is depicted in the nameplate by a blue shaded area of the trip curve. The dependent curve affords better protection exibility. Additionally, all of the trip units have, as standard, thermal memory, 50/60 Hz operation, and thermal self-protection at 90C. Also, the 520M trip units have a large display window and 2% metering accuracy.

Technical Data
Effective: March 2003 Page 45

Trip Functions
Magnum DS trip units provide the maximum in exibility and are available in the following congurations: LSI, LSIG, LSIA (ground fault alarm only). In each case, either the short delay or instantaneous (not both) functions may be defeated. This reduces the need for spare breaker inventories and provides maximum utilization of interchangeable breakers.

C. Compartment position switch, 4 or 8 (Form C) contacts, actuated by movement of drawout breaker from the connected position. Most common uses are for disconnecting remote control circuits of electrically operated breaker, and for bypassing b interlocking auxiliary contacts when breaker is withdrawn from the connected position. D. Undervoltage trip (ac and dc available). Acts to trip the breaker when the coil voltage is insufcient to restrain a spring-loaded core. The dropout point is within 30 to 60 percent of the nominal coil voltage and is not adjustable. E. Overcurrent trip switch (OTS). A latching type switch with two independent Form C contacts. Operates only when the trip unit trips the breaker. It may be used for alarm and/or interlocking circuits. Resetting is done by a pushbutton on the breaker faceplate. F. Electric close on manually operated breakers, for any standard control voltage. Breaker can be closed by remote control switch or pushbutton after the closing spring is manually charged. G. Operation counter. H. Breaker mounted key interlock. I. Second shunt trip coil in place of UVR coil.

Change in Trip Rating


The overcurrent trip pickup range is established by a combination of trip unit rating plugs and matching current sensor ratings on the breaker.

Optional Breaker Attachments and Accessories


A. Shunt trip on manually operated breakers, for any standard control voltage. B. Auxiliary contacts on manually or electrically operated breakers. Maximum of 6 normally open and 6 normally closed contacts (5 normally closed contacts on electrically operated breakers) are available on any breaker, manually or electrically operated. The contact rating is 10 amperes.

Digitrip RMS Integral MicroprocessorBased Breaker Overcurrent Trip Systems


Provides maximum reliability with true rms sensing as standard, gives excellent repeatability, and requires minimum maintenance. No external control source is required for its protective functions.
