    With regard to lifting, follow the instructions: the circuit-breakers must be placed on a sturdy supporting surface and lifted, preferably, by means of a special fork-lift truck. However, the use of ropes is allowed. In this case, the lifting ropes must be hooked up as shown in the figures (the lifting plates are always supplied with the circuit-breaker).

  • Page 12: Examples Of Positioning The Connection Busbars According To The Terminals

    5.1.1 Examples of positioning the connection busbars according to the terminals The connection busbars enable the connection between the terminals of the circuit-breakers and the busbars of the switchgear. Their sizing must be carefully studied by the switchgear designer. Some examples of possible constructions are given in this paragraph. The various types of terminals are of constant dimensions for each size of circuit-breaker: it is normally advisable to exploit the whole contact surface of the terminal, so the width of the connection busbars should be the same as that of the terminal.
  • Page 13: Assembly Procedure For The Connection Busbars

    5.1.2 Assembly procedure for the connection busbars Check the state of the contact surfaces of the connections very carefully: they must be very clean with no burrs, dents or traces of rust which must be eliminated using a fine file or an emery cloth to prevent localized increases in temperature. On completion of the operation, remove all traces of grease or dust with a cloth soaked in a suitable solvent.

    5.3.2 Withdrawable circuit-breaker For connection of the moving part to the auxiliary circuits, a connection with sliding contacts is available on the fixed part (see figure), identified by code X on the electrical circuit diagram. The terminals of the fixed connector are immediately accessible when the compartment door is open. Furthermore a terminal box identified by code XF is available for connecting the position contacts of the moving part in relation to the fixed part.

    10. Accessories 10.1 Electrical accessories Shunt opening/closing (YO/YC) and second shunt opening release (Y02) This allows remote opening or closing control of the apparatus. Given the characteristics of the circuit-breaker operating mechanism, opening (with the circuit-breaker closed) is always possible, whereas closing is only possible when the closing springs are loaded. Most of the releases can operate with either direct or alternating current.
  • Page 26 Time delay device for undervoltage release (D) The undervoltage release can be combined with an electronic time-delay device for installing outside the circuit-breaker, which enables a delay in the tripping of the release with preset, adjustable times. The use of the delayed undervoltage release is recommended when the power supply network of the release can be subject to power cuts or short-lived voltage drops, in order to avoid trips.
  • Page 27 Mechanical and electrical trip signalling for overcurrent releases The following signals are available following tripping of the overcurrent release: a) Mechanical trip signalling for overcurrent releases This enables a visual signalling on the operating mechanism by pushing the trip pushbutton in when the circuit-breaker has been opened following tripping of an overcurrent release.

  • Page 30 11. Protection releases - General notes The Emax series of ABB air circuit-breakers now has a new range of electronic releases for DC applications called PR122/DC and PR123/DC. The new protection releases integrate all the functions of their predecessors, adding new and interesting technical features that are useful for satisfying every current and future system installation need.
  • Page 31: Protection Releases - General Notes

    Auxiliary power supply Notes A. Use the “Belden 3105A”- type two-wire cable for instance (not supplied by ABB SACE). B. Use the “Belden 3106A”- type three-wire cable for instance (not supplied by ABB SACE). C. The unit has a “backup-protection” function; if the first command to the opening solenoid does not open immediately the circuit-breaker (TC partially fault), TRIP commands are repeatedly sent until the circuit-breaker opens.
  • Page 32: Sace Pr122/Dc Release - Identification

    The PR122/DC is a high-performance protection unit with Protection, Measurement, Data storage, Communication (optional), Self-test, Load control and Zone selectivity functions for the ABB SACE 'Emax' range of 3- and 4-pole low-voltage air circuit-breakers. The unit's user interface also enables parameter setup and complete the prealarm and alarm management for the protection and watchdog functions.
  • Page 33: Auxiliary Power Supply

    12.2.2 Auxiliary power supply The external auxiliary power supply is provided using a galvanically-separated power pack. Since the auxiliary voltage needs to be isolated from the ground, "galvanically separated converters" in accordance with the IEC standard 60950 (UL 1950) or the equivalent IEC 60364-41 and CEI 64-8 have to be used to guarantee a current in common mode or leakage current (as defined in IEC 478/1 and CEI 22/3) no greater than 3.5mA.
  • Page 34: Description Of The Protection Functions

    12.2.9 Description of the protection functions 12.2.9.1 Protection “L” The "L" is the only protection that cannot be disabled because it is for self-protection against overloading of the relay itself. The types of trip curves settable are divided into two groups according to the IEC standard 60255-8. The protection trip time - inverse time - is given by the expression: where I is the fault current and I...
  • Page 35: Protection "I

    As a practical example, the figure above shows a fault on the load side of the "Relay 1a" isolated by the latter without the "Relay 1" or the "Relay 0" being affected; a fault immediately downstream from the "Relay 1" will be isolated by the latter without the "Relay 0" being affected, thus ensuring that the Areas 2...n remain operational.
  • Page 36: Load Control Function

    12.2.9.6 Load control function Single loads can be enabled/disabled on the load side before the overload protection L intervenes and trips the circuit-breaker on the supply side. This is done by contactors or switch-disconnectors (wired outside the release), controlled by the PR122/DC by means of contacts on the PR120/K module or on the PR021/K external unit.

  • Page 54: Zone Selectivity "S

    13.2.9.2.3 Zone selectivity “S” The zone selectivity function, guaranteed only if an auxiliary voltage is provided, enables the area of the fault to be isolated, only isolating the part of plant nearest to the fault, while keeping the rest of the plant operational. This is done by connecting all the zone selectivity outputs of the releases belonging to the same zone to one another (ZSO=K51/SZout) and taking this signal to the zone selectivity input (ZSI=K51/SZin) of the next release on the supply side.

    15 Appendices 15.1 PR021/K outside signalling unit 15.1.1 General information The signalling unit converts the digital signals provided by the protection units into electrical signals by means of normally-open electric contacts. Information on the status of the protection functions transits on a dedicated serial line connected to the release. The following signals/contacts are available: - L overload prealarm (the alarm signal remains enabled throughout the overload, until the release has been tripped) - protections timing and trip (the protections trip signal remains enabled during the timing-controlled phase and after the release has been tripped)

  • Page 89: Data Logger (Recorder)

    15.2 Data logger (recorder) The data logger function is available on the PR122/DC and PR123/DC units and it can be used to save the instantaneous values of certain analog and digital measurements automatically in a large-sized memory buffer. The data can easily be downloaded from the unit using either the SD- Pocket application with a Bluetooth port, or the SD-TestBus application via a Modbus bus, and transferred to any personal computer for processing.
  • Page 90: Setting The Stopping Delay

    If you select "None" for the stop event, the data logger can be stopped only by a stop command from the operator panel, from the system or following a trip generated by the relay. 15.2.2.4 Setting and viewing customized stop events (triggers) From the system, you can set customized stop events (triggers) to coincide with the events shown in paragraph 15.3.
