CB Testing 2

The document outlines the procedures and equipment used for Circuit Breaker (CB) timing tests, including the benefits of using the B10E Kit and recommended pulse times for closing and opening tests. It also details the contact resistance test and insulation resistance tests, specifying the required voltage and acceptable resistance values for each phase. The results from these tests should match Factory Acceptance Test (FAT) values to ensure proper functionality of the circuit breaker.

Circuit Breaker Tests

presented by: Eng .Ahmed Kafrawy


CB Timing Test
 Why We perform CB Timing Test?
To Determine closing and opening time that Circuit breaker spent
during closing and opening operation according to that we can
determine general Status of Circuit breaker mechanism.

 Most Common Devices that used to perform test:


1. Megger Egil +B10E
2. Circuit Breaker Analyzer CBA 1000
3. TM1600+B10E
CB Timing Test
 What is the benefits of Using (B10E Kit)?
Providing different ranges of Voltages that Can Simulate decaying of dc
Voltage or Increasing of dc Voltage with Specific range that determine the
ability of perform Closing and opening during this Conditions.

 CB Timing test will perform With Using devices:


Megger Egil +B10E
 Megger Egil +B10E Wiring Diagram
CB Timing Test
 Close Coil test Voltage (90V-125V-140V)

 Trip Coil-1 Voltage(70V-125V-140V)

 Trip Coil-2 Voltage(70V-125V-140V)


CB Timing Test
 Close pulse= time required to energize Close coil

 open pulse= time required to energize open coil

 Close time= close pulse Time(Until Energize only) + Close time of Mechanism of CB

 open time= close pulse Time (Until Energize only) + open time of Mechanism of CB

 Recommended That Follow FAT Test Values OF (Close Pulse - open pulse- Close
time- open time)
CB Timing Test
 1-Opening Time Test
 Why we recommend to take Pulse Time 30ms?
Because CB Close Time range (30-40 msc)
CB Open Time range (20-30 msc)
So 30msc Pulse time will in Case of Opening and
Closing will be enough Value to Energize Coil of
Tripping and Coil Of Closing
CB Timing Test
 1-Closing Time Test
 Why we recommend to take Pulse Time 30ms?
Because CB Close Time range (30-40 msc) Closing Pulse
CB Open Time range (20-30 msc)
So 30msc Pulse time will in Case of Opening and
Closing will be enough Value to Energize Coil of
Tripping and Coil Of Closing
CB Timing Test
 1-Close – Open (C-O Time Test)
C-o test simulate Switch On to Fault Test
(SOTF)
Consist of : Close Pulse

1-Close Pulse :30msc

Close to open
2-Close To open (Delay time) :50ms

3-Open Pulse:30msc open Pulse


CB Timing Test
 1-Open-Close – Open (OCO Time Test)
OCO test simulate Auto reclosure Open Pulse
Consist of :

1-Open Pulse : 30msc


Open to Close

2-Open To Close:300ms (Supplier Recommendation)


(this Value is big to prevent Close on Fault (transient Faults )

3-Close Pulse: 30ms


Close Pulse
Close to Open
4-Close To open (Delay time): 0.15ms

5-Open Pulse: 30msc Open Pulse


CB Timing Test
O-0.3-CO-3 Min-CO

Delay times (0.3 Min & 3 Min) Called Dead time that Allow :

1-CB Poles Cool Down to Avoid deformation Of poles During Arc

2-this time help insulation Medium to recover it properties


CB Timing Test
 Results for O-C-O TEST Shall Match FAT Test
CB Timing Test
 Difference between Phases Shall not Exceed (2ms) .
CB Contact Resistance Test
 Why We perform Contact Resistance Test?
To check the quality of Connection Such as Connected by
Welding or pressing or plug For Circuit Breaker and Its results Shall
be in Micro –Ohm

 Most Common Devices that used to perform test:


1. MOM
2. DLRO
 DLRO Wiring Diagram

• Inject 100A DC
• Perform Test For Each Pole (R-S-T) And Compare Results With FAT test
• Results Shall be
CB Insulation Resistance (IR test)
 IR during Close Circuit Breaker:
1-Phase To Phase Test (R-Y & R-B & Y-B)
• Inject 5 KV For 1 Min For Each Phase
• Results Shall be >100 Mega-Ohm
CB Insulation Resistance (IR test)
 IR during Close Circuit Breaker:
1-Phase To Earth Test (R-E & B-E & Y-E)
• Inject 5 KV For 1 Min For Each Phase
• Results Shall be > 100 Mega-Ohm
CB Insulation Resistance (IR test)
 IR during Open Circuit Breaker:
1-Phase (R &Y & B ) to check no Contact Between Circuit Breaker Contacts
During open position .
• Inject 5 KV For 1 Min For Each Phase
• Results Shall be > 100 Mega-Ohm
