4.3 Breaker

4.3.1 Breaker types

There are three possible selections for the setting of the GB type (menu 6233).
Continuous
This type of signal is most often used combined with a contactor. When using this type of signal, the GPC will
only use the close breaker relays. The relay will be closed for closing of the contactor and will be opened for
opening of the contactor.
If continuous breaker is selected, relay 14 will become configurable.
Pulse (default setting)
This type of signal is most often used with a motorised circuit breaker. With the setting pulse, the GPC will
use the close command and the open command relay. The close breaker relay will close for a short time for
closing of the circuit breaker. The open breaker relay will close for a short time for opening of the breaker.
Compact
This type of signal will most often be used with a compact breaker, a direct-controlled motor-driven breaker.
With the setting compact, the GPC will use the close command and the open command relay. The close
breaker relay will close for a short time for the compact breaker to close. The breaker off relay will close for
the compact breaker to open and hold it closed long enough for the motor in the breaker to recharge the
breaker. If the compact breaker is tripped externally, it is recharged automatically before next closing.
If compact breaker is selected, the length of the breaker open signal can be adjusted. This can
be done in menu 2160.

4.3.2 Breaker spring load time

To avoid breaker close failures in situations where breaker ON command is given before the breaker spring
has been loaded, the spring load time can be adjusted for the GB.
The following describes a situation where you risk getting a close failure:
1. The genset is in remote mode, the "Start sync./control" input is active, the genset is running and the GB is
closed.
