1. Introduction 1.1 Purposes The rated voltages of BW series air circuit breakers (referred to as circuit breakers) are rated voltage AC400V, 690V, 50/60HZ. The rated current is from 630 to 6300A. It's used for distributing power and protecting circuits in the electrical distribution system is protected from overloading, voltage shortage, short circuit, earthling, and other hazardous faults.

3.2.2 Short-circuit Short time delay Protection Characteristics Intelligent controller's short-circuit Short time delay protection methods comprises inverse time protection and de nite time restriction protection. 1. Inverse time protection: When the fault current exceeds the present setting current value but is smaller than (10I the maximum setting short-circuit current (10Ir), the controller will carry out protection according to the inverse time curve.
3.2.4 Unsymmetrical Earthing / Leakage Protection Characteristics Intelligent controller's earthing protection methods comprise inverse time protection and definite time protection. 1. Inverse time protection: When the fault current exceeds the present setting current but is smaller than 5Ig, the controller will carry out protection based on the inverse time curve.
Intelligent Another is transformer mode of external leakage. The controller gets the output current signal from a current transformer controller Intelligent Intelligent controller directly to protect. Generally, the secondary output of the transformer is 5A/1A (secondary current is 1A if primary current controller of transformer is less than 400A, else is 5A).
The controller can program the output of two passive signal contacts for load monitoring. The output signal contacts can be used for monitoring alerts, controlling the load of tripping sub-circuit and ensuring a normal power supply for the main system. There are two types of load monitoring methods available (the user can choose one of them).

Self-diagnosed functions When the working environment of the controller exceeds 65 C or when 60% of the contact has been worn o , or when the circuit breaker cannot be tripped, the light "TAL" on the controller panel will be on to alert the user. Relevant parameters will be recorded for later inquiry.

8. Mounting, Usage, and Maintenance 8.1 Mounting (1) Before mounting, check the speci cations of the circuit breaker to make sure if they meet the requirements. (2) Before mounting, check the insulator resistance with a 500V megger. The resistance should not be less than 10MΩ when the surrounding medium temperature is 20ºC+5ºC with a relative humidity between 50% and 70%.
b. LED Status Indicator The working status indicator is used to notify the current working conditions of the circuit breaker. It includes the following: ① BUS (Communication indicator): BUS light will be on when controller is receiving and sending data via test port. This communication light is only available for controllers with a communication function.
