General
Standard/Customer
Specication
There are international and national standards, as well as customer specications. ABB can meet most requirements, as long as we are aware of
them.
IEC or ANSI (ANSI/IEEE) are the most common standards. In case of
doubt, please enclose a copy of specication with the enquiry.
Tests
Type tests (design tests) and routine tests (production tests) are required by
standards.
Type tests
Type tests are performed only once on one representative test object in
accordance with applicable standards and are not repeated without extra
charge. The purpose of the type tests is to verify the ratings of the design.
Routine tests
Routine tests are performed on each circuit breaker before delivery in
accordance with applicable standards. The purpose of the routine tests is
to verify the assembly and the function on every individual circuit breaker.
Routine test certicates are sent to the user with each delivery.
Extended routine tests exceeding requirements by standards will be charged extra.
Please see special chapter page R-1, Quality Control and Testing.

Rated LIWL
This test is to show that the apparatus can withstand the power frequency
over-voltages that can occur.
Rated SIWL
The rated Switching Impulse Withstand Level (SIWL) indicates the required
withstand level phase-to-earth (phase-to-ground), between phases and
across open contacts. The value is expressed in kV as a peak value. The
switching impulse is required only for voltages 300 kV. Two values may
be required across open gap, a SIWL-voltage plus a BIAS power frequency
voltage or a single SIWL-voltage.

System and Switching Conditions
Earthing System
The earthing system of the network may vary with regions and system voltage.
For higher voltages (> 72 kV), the systems tend to have an earthed neutral
system, whereas lower voltages usually have isolated systems or resonant
earthed systems (earthing through an impedance).
The type of earthing system is an important parameter for dening the transient recovery voltage.
First-Pole-to-ClearFactor
Rated Transient
Recovery Voltage
The rated transient recovery voltage (TRV) is the peak transient voltage
(expressed in kV) that corresponds to the rst-pole-to-clear when interrupting
a three-phase fault at rated short-circuit current.
The rated transient recovery voltage (uc) is calculated as follows
(based on IEC):
Where:
Ur = Rated voltage (kV)
kpp = rst-pole-to-clear-factor
kaf = Amplitude factor (According to IEC: 1.4 at 100% short-circuit current)
Example:
At 145 kV with kpp = 1.5 the rated transient recovery voltage will be 249 kV
The rated out-of-phase breaking current is the maximum out-of-phase breaking current the circuit breaker shall be capable of breaking.
The standard value of the rated out-of-phase breaking current is 25% of the
rated short-circuit breaking current.
Out-Of-Phase
The out-of-phase (voltage) factor is used for calculating the recovery voltage
for different earthing systems. The power frequency recovery voltage (rms) can
be calculated as:
The transient recovery voltage (uc) can be calculated as:
Where:
Ur = Rated voltage (kV)
kpp = rst-pole-to-clear-factor (out-of-phase)
kaf = Amplitude factor (According to IEC: 1.25)
Example:
At 245 kV with kpp = 2.0, the out-of-phase transient recovery voltage will be 500 kV
Standardized values for the voltage factors are:
- 2.0 for earthed neutral systems
- 2.5 for systems other than earthed neutral systems.
The applied voltage before making is not affected by the earthing system. The
maximum applied voltage during out-of-phase conditions is always 2.0 times
the single-phase voltage.
B-3
Edition 3, 2004-06
Explanations
When an earth fault occurs not far from a circuit breaker, traveling waves
will generate a very steep initial recovery voltage. This initial recovery voltage is depending on the short-circuit current and the surge impedance.
The surge impedance may vary depending on e.g. type of conductors.
In standards (IEC and ANSI/IEEE), the surge impedance has been standardized to a value of 450 .
Other characteristics for the short-line fault are the peak factor and the
RRRV factor. These have been standardized to the following values:
Peak factor: 1.6
RRRV factor: 0.2 (kV/s)/kA for 50 Hz
0.24 (kV/s)/kA for 60 Hz
Capacitive Voltage
Factor
The capacitive voltage factor is used for dening the single-phase recovery
voltage for different capacitive switching applications. The factor is depending on the following:
Application
- no-load line switching
- no-load cable switching
- capacitor bank switching
Earthing system
- earthed neutral system
- isolated or resonant earthed system
Standard values for capacitive voltage factors for normal service conditions
are as follows:
No-load line switching:
- 1.2 (earthed neutral systems)
- 1.4 (other than earthed neutral systems)
No-load cable switching:
- 1.0 (screened cables with earthed neutral systems)
- 1.2 (belted cables with earthed neutral systems)
- 1.4 (other than earthed neutral systems)
Capacitor bank switching:
- 1.0 (capacitor bank with earthed neutral)
- 1.4 (capacitor bank with isolated neutral)
When different capacitive voltage factors apply from different applications,
the highest value should be referred to.
The voltage factor can be used to calculate the single-phase recovery
voltage peak:
Where:
Ur = Rated voltage
kc = capacitive voltage factor
Example:
What is the peak recovery voltage for a 245 kV breaker when switching a
no-load line with earthed neutral?
The voltage factor is 1.2 due to earthed neutral system.
The peak recovery voltage is:

The rated capacitive inrush current (peak value) is only applicable for circuit
breakers intended for switching of (mainly back-to-back) capacitor banks.
The inrush current is characterized by a very high inrush current and inrush
frequency.

Design
Pre-Insertion Resistors Pre-insertion resistors are used to limit over-voltages in the network during
(PIR)
switching operations. The pre-insertion resistors are only used during
closing and consist of resistor blocks that are connected in parallel with the
breaking chamber.
The resistor blocks will close the circuit approximately 8-12 ms before the
arcing contacts.
Pre-insertion resistors are mainly used at higher system voltages (362 kV).
Pre-insertion resistors should not be mixed up with opening resistors,
which are used for reducing (damping) the TRV during opening. Opening
resistors are mainly used on older types of circuit breakers, e.g. air-blast
circuit breakers.

Mechanical Endurance The mechanical endurance class is a new denition, which was introduced
Class
in IEC 62271-100.
The denitions are:
Class M1: Circuit breaker with normal mechanical endurance (2,000 operations).
Class M2: Frequently operated circuit-breaker for special service requirements (10,000 operations)
A circuit breaker intended for Class M2 can of course also be used for
Class M1.

Pressure
Gas pressures can be expressed in several units, such as MPa, bar, P.s.i
etc.
1MPa = 106 Pa = 10 bar = 145 P.s.i
Rated lling pressure
The rated lling pressure is given at the reference temperature of +20C
and may be expressed in relative or absolute terms. The rated lling pressure is the pressure to which the circuit breaker is lled before being put
into service.
Alarm pressure
The alarm pressure is given at the reference temperature of +20C and
may be expressed in relative or absolute terms. The alarm pressure is the
pressure at which a monitoring (alarm) signal indicates that replenishment
is necessary in a relatively short time.
Minimum pressure (Lock out, interlocking or blocking pressure)
The minimum pressure is given at the reference temperature of +20C and
may be expressed in relative or absolute terms. The minimum pressure is
the pressure at which the circuit breaker becomes interlocked for further
operation and when replenishment is necessary.
All type tests, except mechanical endurance test, are performed at this
pressure.
Maximum pressure
The maximum pressure is given at the reference temperature of +20C and
may be expressed in relative or absolute terms. The maximum pressure is
the pressure at which the circuit breaker is carrying its normal current at
maximum ambient temperature.

Time Quantities
Opening Time
The opening time is the interval of time from energizing of the opening
release (e.g. opening coil) for a circuit breaker being in closed position and
the instant when the (arcing) contacts have separated in all poles.
Closing Time
The closing time is the interval of time from energizing of the closing
release (e.g. closing coil) for a circuit breaker being in open position and
the instant when the (arcing) contacts touch in all poles.

Explanations
Explanations
Time Quantities
Rated Break Time
The rated (maximum) break time (interrupting time) is the time intervalbetween energizing the trip circuit and when the arc is extinguished in all
poles.
The break time is expressed in ms or cycles (20 ms = 1 cycle at 50 Hz).
In IEC, the break-time is based on the results of the terminal fault test
duties with symmetrical current.
Compensation is made for single-phase testing and for reduced supply
voltages.
Dead Time
The dead time (during auto-reclosing) is the interval of time between nal
arc extinction in all poles in the opening operation and the rst re-establishment of current in any pole in the subsequent closing operation.
IEC and ANSI/IEEE specify a dead time of 300 ms.
Reclosing Time
The reclosing time is the interval of time between the energizing of the opening release (e.g. opening coil) and the instant when the contacts touch in
all poles during a reclosing cycle.
Reclosing time = Opening time + Arcing time + Dead time + Pre-arcing time
Close-Open Time
The close-open time is the interval of time between the instant of contact
touch in the rst pole during a closing operation and the instant when the
(arcing) contacts have separated in all poles during the following opening
operation.
The opening release (e.g. opening coil) shall have been energized at the
instant when the contacts touch during closing (CO-operation without any
intentional time delay a.k.a pre-tripped CO-operation).
NOTE: The close-open time is not equal to Closing time + Opening time.
Open-Close Time
Make-Break Time
The make-break time is the interval of time between the initiation of current
ow in the rst pole during a closing operation an the end of the arcing
time during the subsequent opening operation.
The make-break time is based on an operation where the opening release
(e.g. opening coil) shall have been energized at the instant when the contacts touch during closing (CO-operation without any intentional time delay
a.k.a pre-tripped CO-operation).
Make-break time = Pre-arcing time + Close-open time + Arcing time
Control voltage is a DC supply used for the control circuits such as:
Close circuit and trip circuits etc.
Common rated control voltages:
110, 125, 220 or 240 V DC
(Less common rated control voltages: 250, 60 or 48 V DC)
The operating mechanism, including the control circuit, is designed for
a rated control voltage but must additionally have operational capability
throughout a specic voltage range to accommodate variations in supply
voltage. The following required voltage ranges are required according to
IEC:
Minimum voltage (auxiliary equipment): 85% of rated voltage
Maximum voltage (auxiliary equipment): 110% of rated voltage
Minimum voltage (close circuit): 85% of rated voltage
Maximum voltage (close circuit): 110% of rated voltage
Minimum voltage (trip circuit): 70% of rated voltage
Maximum voltage (trip circuit): 110% of rated voltage

MCB
Miniature Circuit
Breaker
The MCB (Miniature Circuit Breaker) is a small automatic breaker that can
be manually controlled or automatically tripped due to over-current.
The over-current is either thermal (type K) or peak value (type B).
1NO + 1NC auxiliary contacts, that shows MCB position, can be included.
The MCB is normally used for AC auxiliary circuit (and motor circuit for
operating mechanism type BLK)
Direct On Line Motor Starter is a motor protection and manual control unit.
This could also be an MCB (thermal controlled type).
This unit trips the motor supply when motor overload occurs or when the
Direct On Line Motor Starter is manually operated.
Operating Coils
Close and trip coils in operating mechanisms BLK and BLG have relatively
low power consumption, normally 200 W, due to a very good latch design.
One close and two trip coils are supplied as standard.
Additional close coils can be supplied as option. Also the second trip coil
can be of the double type and additional trip circuit can be used.
Hand/Motor Switch
The hand / motor switch disconnects the motor circuit during hand cranking.
The hand / motor switch, either manual or automatic, has the following
functions:
- Motor position; connects the motor-to-motor supply.
- Hand position; short-circuit the motor to be used as a generator brake.

Density Switch
B-11
The density switch is a device that measures the gas pressure, ambient
temperature compensated, inside the circuit breaker.
The density switch includes normally: a scale display, one contact indicating the alarm pressure and two contacts controlling the gas-supervision
interlocking relays at the blocking level.
Edition 3, 2004-06
Explanations
Another option is trip at low SF6-pressure. This option gives a trip order via
the gas- supervision interlocking relays at the same time blocking occurs.
All type tests, except the mechanical tests, are carried out at this blocking
pressure.
Panel Light

TCS
Trip Circuit
Supervision
TCS Trip Circuit Supervision is mainly used to check the connection between the protection trip relay (control room) and the operating mechanism
and secondly the trip coil(s) inside the operating mechanism(s).
The TCS is a device that can be tted in parallel with the protection trip
relay(s) and sends a low (< 50 mA) testing current through the trip circuit(s).
To be able to monitor the trip circuits when the circuit breaker is in open
position (when the auxiliary contact in the trip circuit is open), there is a
parallel wiring to this contact. There are two normal ways to do this:
1. A resistor in parallel with this contact, with resistance value given by the
supplier of the TCS device.
2. A NC-contact of the auxiliary contact in parallel with the original NOcontact. This requires either 2 outputs from the TCS-device or two
parallel TCS-devices.
An example of TCS device is SPER from ABB ATCF.
Resistor values for SPER, according to 1. above:
220 V dc. 33 k
110 V dc. 22 k
60 V dc. 5.6 k
48 V dc. 1.2 k
Protective Trip
The protective trip in the trip circuits is a direct line, by-passing the Local /
Remote selector switch.
Note! Used only when protective tripping should override the selector
switch.

1. Loss of motor voltage.
2. The direct on line motor starter is tripped manually.
3. The direct on line motor starter is tripped due to over-current.
4. An electrical error prevents spring charging.
5. A mechanical error prevents spring charging.
The relay can be an auxiliary relay or with a time delay relay depending on
alarm delaying possibility in the bay control unit.
The alarm delay must be at least as long as the spring charging time,
normally 15 s.
Voltage Supervision
Heater Supervision
The heating circuit can be equipped with a current supervision relay (with
adjustable setting for current and hysteresis) or an indicating lamp in series
with the continuously connected heater.
Capacitor Tripping
The BLK operating mechanism can be equipped with 0-voltage Trip coil.
It is used to automatically trip the circuit breaker at loss of, or low operating voltage.
The 0-voltage Trip coil is always used together with a voltage supervision
relay (adjustable setting for voltage and hysteresis) that controls the tripping voltage level.

Seismic Conditions
Seismic Stress
There are many zones in the world where earthquakes may occur, and
where circuit breakers should be designed to withstand the corresponding
stresses. When an earthquake occurs, the acceleration and amplitude of
the motion of the ground will vary in a statistical manner. The stress conditions are normally most severe in the horizontal direction. The type of soil
(sand, clay, rock, etc) has a strong inuence on the actual local severity of
an earthquake and the damage it may inict.
For technical purposes earthquake stresses are normally dened by the
maximum value of the horizontal acceleration (more precisely: the maximum value of the zero period value of the horizontal acceleration, ZPA).
IEC has standardized three values of maximum horizontal acceleration,
ZPA: 2, 3, and 5 m/s2, corresponding to 0.2, 0.3, and 0.5 g.
IEEE, which is more relevant (more severe) has corresponding standardized values, 0.25 g and 0.5 g respectively for moderate and heavy seismic
action.

Design Features
The closing spring in the operating mechanism generates the required driving force
to close the circuit breaker and charge the
opening spring. As such, the mechanical
energy needed for the vital opening operation
is always stored in the opening spring when
the circuit breaker is in the closed position.
In other words, a closed breaker is always
prepared for immediate opening.

Opening operation
To open the circuit breaker, the
opening latch (1) is released by the
tripping coil, and the opening spring
(A) of the circuit breaker carries out
the operation. The motion of the
contact system is retarded by a
damping device (2). With a spring
operated circuit breaker the opening
operation is extremely reliable as the
operation is only dependent on the

All controllers have provisions for adaptive input to compensate for systematic variations in operating time
of the circuit breaker. In addition, SwitchsyncTM F236, T183, and L183 have provisions for two external,
predictive inputs (e.g. temperature variation, control voltage). These functions make it possible to achieve
added precision in the timing of the controlled circuit breaker. They also have a data memory that stores
information on switching times, thus permitting condition monitoring of the circuit breaker.
