Entellisys Low Voltage Switchgear

Appendix F. Circuit Breaker Repetitive Duty Data

This standard applies to all parts of a circuit breaker that

function during normal operation. It does not apply to other

parts, such as overcurrent tripping devices, that function only

during infrequent abnormal circuit conditions.

1.

Servicing consists of adjusting, cleaning, lubricating,

tightening, etc., as recommended by the manufacturer.

When current is interrupted, dressing of contacts may

be required as well. The operations listed are on the

basis of servicing at intervals of 6 months or less.


2.

When closing and opening no-load.


3.

With rated control voltage applied.


4.

Frequency of operation not to exceed 20 in 10 minutes

or 30 in an hour. Rectifiers or other auxiliary devices

may further limit the frequency of operation.


5.

Servicing at no greater intervals than shown in Column

2 of Table F-1.


6.

No functional parts should have been replaced during

the listed operations.


7.

The circuit breaker should be in a condition to carry its

rated continuous current at rated maximum voltage and

perform at least one opening operation at rated short-

circuit current. After completion of this series of

operations, functional part replacement and general

servicing may be necessary.

8.

When closing and opening current up to the continuous

current rating of the circuit breaker at voltages up to

the rated maximum voltage and at 85% power factor or

higher.


9.

When closing currents up to 600% and opening currents

up to 100% (80% power factor or higher) of the

continuous current rating of the circuit breaker at

voltages up to the rated maximum voltage.

When closing currents up to 600% and opening currents

up to 600% (50% power factor or less) of the continuous

current rating of the circuit breaker at voltages up to

rated maximum voltage, the number of operations

shown shall be reduced to 10% of the number listed.

10.

If a fault operation occurs before the completion of the

listed operations, servicing is recommended and

possible functional part replacements may be necessary,

depending on previous accumulated duty, fault

magnitude, and expected future operations.
