摘要

This three-part article addresses testing requirements, methods, and challenges for low-voltage circuit breaker testing strategies. High currents are those that exceed 200 percent of the breaker's rating and are segregated into short-time and instantaneous faults. Ground faults are characterized by an excessive amount of current flowing in the ground system. These types of faults are of the most concern in industrial and commercial applications and, therefore, these protection modes are often found on three-phase breakers. Part one of this series (Fall 2002) described the general technology of circuit breakers and how longtime overcurrent conditions are detected. This article will specifically focus on the sections of the trip unit dedicated to high currents and ground faults. Electromechanical trip units rely on the magnetic field generated by the fault current to activate what is essentially a relay armature. Closure of this magnetic circuit activates the tripping mechanism, and the breaker opens. For the instantaneous function, this action is not time delayed and normally happens within 200 milliseconds after the fault is initiated. Electrohydraulic mechanisms commonly respond in less than one second. Tripping times are shorter when the strength of the magnetic field generated by the current pulls the slug through the liquid at a faster rate. The higher the magnetic field, the shorter the trip time. Finally, electronic trip units implement all of these functions by measuring the actual current and comparing it to a reference table of values to determine the appropriate response.
