bar is the heart of the Magnum DS

vertical bus. This configuration
provides a much higher mechanical
strength. To further demonstrate
the strength and rigidity of this bus
system, it has been verified through
testing to withstand 85,000 A shortcircuit for a full 60 cycles.
Interference interlocks: Supplied on

breakers and in compartments where
the compartments are of the same
physical size. Interference interlocks
ensure an incorrect breaker cannot
be inserted.
Optional key interlock (switchgear
mounted): This mechanism holds the
breaker cell mechanically trip-free to
prevent electrical or manual closing.
Breaker can be stored in compartment,
and completely removed for maintenance or for use as a spare without
disturbing the interlock. Modification
of the breaker is not required. An
additional single cylinder breaker
mounted key interlock is available
as an option.
Optional mechanical interlock:
Available between adjacent breakers
to ensure the proper sequence of
operation between two circuit breakers
or a circuit breaker and a fuse truck.
Buses and connections: Vertical

and cross bus ratings in Magnum DS
switchgear are based on a UL and
ANSI standard temperature rise of
65 C above a maximum ambient air
temperature of 40 C. As an option,
55C temp rise over a maximum
ambient air temp of 40 C is available.

Bus bracing: Unique vertical bus

configuration provides an optional
industry-leading short-circuit withstand rating of 200,000 A. Standard
bracing is 100,000 A. The U shaped
Breaker inspection: When withdrawn

on the rails, breaker is completely
accessible for visual inspection; tilting is
not necessary. The rails are permanent
parts of every breaker compartment.
Closing spring automatic discharge:

Mechanical interlocking automatically
discharges the closing springs when
the breaker is removed from its
compartment.
Breaker Cell
Four-position drawout: Breakers can

be in connected, test, disconnected or
removed position. The breaker can be
moved between the connected, test
and disconnected positions while the
compartment door is closed.
Silver plating: Bolted, silver-plated

copper main buses are standard. The
plating is over the entire length of the
bar, not just at the joints. Optional
tin-plated copper buses are available.
Bus joints: All joints are bolted and
secured with Belleville-type spring
washers for maximum joint integrity.
These washers reduce the potential of
joint hardware loosening during the
change of joint temperature associated
with variations of the loads. Optional
maintenance-free hardware is also
available.
Full neutral: For four-wire applications,
the neutral bus is rated 100% of main
bus rating as standard. Neutral ratings
up to a maximum of 10,000 A are
available as an option. Additionally,
four-pole breakers can be used in
conjunction with four-wire systems.
Ground: A ground bus is furnished
the full length of the switchgear
assembly and is fitted with terminals
for purchasers connections.
Glass reinforced polyester and
Ultramid standoff insulation system:
Glass reinforced polyester has been
used on both low and medium voltage
switchgear for decades. By combining
this industry proven material with
Ultramid insulation, a total system
providing exceptional mechanical and
dielectric withstand strength, as well
as high resistance to heat, flame and
moisture, is produced. Substantial
testing to demonstrate accelerated
effects of heating and cooling on the
mechanical and dielectric properties
of this system prove it to provide
superior performance for decades
of trouble-free operation.
Bus ampacities: Vertical and cross bus

ratings in Magnum DS are 2000, 3200,
4000 and 5000 A. In addition, a 6000,
8000 and 10,000 A cross bus rating is
available. Vertical section bus is sized
per main cross bus maximum rating
or by ANSI C37.20.1 Section 7.4.1.3.

General Description
Optional conductor insulation
covering: For applications requiring
additional bus protection in harsh
environments, Magnum DS switchgear
is designed for the addition of optional
conductor insulation covering, in
addition to providing full UL air
clearance without insulation. This
material is applied during the assembly
of the bus, and covers all vertical and
horizontal phase bus bars. Removable
boots provide access to section-tosection bus joints for inspection and
maintenance purposes. This insulation
is not available for vertical sections containing Series NRX breakers.
Optional Insulated Bus
Barriers: Optional grounded metal

barriers isolate the main bus and
connections from the cable compartment providing added safety to the
workers while reducing the potential
of objects falling into the bus compartment. In addition, vertical barriers
between cable sections can be added
to reduce potential hazards. Barriers
are removable to give access to the
bus compartment for inspection and
maintenance. Barriers can be either
solid metal or vented for ease of
infrared scanning.
Wiring Features
Cable compartment: The cable
compartment gives ample room
for terminating the power cables.
Removable top roof sheets allow
for easy conduit hub installation.
The floor of the cable compartment
is open to allow cable entry from
underground duct banks. Optional
floor plates are available.
Pow-R-Way
busIn addition to cable,

way and nonsegregated bus duct can
be terminated in the compartment.
Lug pad: The lugs are located on the
breaker run-backs to accommodate lug
orientations at a 45 angle to reduce
the bending radius of the cable needed
for making the connections, thus
reducing installation and maintenance
time. Mechanical setscrew type lugs
are standard. Optional NEMA
two-hole compression lugs are available as an option.
Control wireway: An isolated
vertical wireway is provided for
routing of factory and field wiring
in each switchgear section. Breaker
secondary terminal blocks are
mounted as standard above each
circuit breaker. The terminal blocks are
rated 30 A, and will accept bare wire,
ring or spade terminals for wire size
ranges of #22#10. Extruded loops are
punched in side sheets of the vertical
wireway to allow securing of customer
control wiring without the use of
adhesive wire anchors.
Control circuits may be wired in all
cells without removing the circuit
breaker. In addition, power circuits
may be connected in the rear of the
switchgear at the same time control
circuits are being wired in the front
of the switchgear.
For applications involving excessive
wiring, or nonstandard terminal blocks,
terminal blocks are mounted on the
rear frame with the power cables
where they are readily accessible for
customers connections and inspection.
Control wire: Standard wire is Type
SIS insulated stranded copper, extra
flexible No. 14 AWG minimum.
Control wire marking: Each wire

is imprinted with ink cured under ultraviolet light for durability and for easy
identification by the user. The enhanced
solvent resistance and durability of the
aerospace grade UV cure ink has been
tested for severe environments. The
imprinting is made every 3.00 inches
(76.2 mm) along the length of the wire
to make field troubleshooting easier.
The point of origin, wire designation
and point of destination are imprinted
in the following format: <origin zone/
wire name/destination zone>. Each
device has a uniquely designated zone.
< indicates the direction of
the wire origination and > indicates
the direction of the wire destination.
As an option, wire marking can be
made using sleeve type or heat
shrink sleeve type.

Secondary terminal compartment:

There are 72 finger-safe secondary
connections for a standard frame
Magnum breaker, 60 for a narrow
frame Magnum breaker and 54 for
a Series NRX breaker. The customers
secondary terminal connections are
located at the front of the structure
behind a separate door providing
access to these connections without
the need to open the breaker
compartment door.
Short-circuiting terminal blocks:
One provided for each set of
instrumentation or relaying
application current transformers.
Shipping split connection: At each
shipping split, the control connections
are made with plug-in terminal blocks
rated 600 V, 40 A. The terminal blocks
mechanically interlock without removing the line or load connections. This
method of making the shipping split
control connections increases the
speed of installation and reduces the
potential of incorrect connections.

Application Description
Magnum DS Front-Accessible Switchgear

42.00-Inch (1066.8 mm) Deep Enclosure
When floor space is limited, or room

constraints dictate that equipment
be mounted against a wall, why
compromise on switchgear design?
Eatons Magnum DS front-accessible
switchgear combines the robustness of
UL 1558 low voltage switchgear with
the flexibility of UL 891 switchboard
design. The front-accessible switchgear offering allows mounting against a
wall, or in other tight locations, where
a standard rear-accessible switchgear
lineup would not normally fit. The three
divisions of rear-accessible switchgear
are redistributed into two vertical
sections, with the breaker and the bus
in one half and cable and bus in the
other half on the right-hand side. Both
sections can be easily accessed by
operators and maintenance personnel
from the front of the switchgear.

Arc-resistant low voltage switchgear

is a new development in the Magnum
DS line that protects operating and
maintenance personnel from dangerous arcing faults by channeling the arc
energy out the top of the switchgear.
Arc faults, caused by human error
or insulation failure, can generate
thermal energy as high as 35,000 F
and a blast equivalent to 20.7 lbs of
TNT. While arc-resistant gear does not
prevent these arcs from occurring, it
does safely redirect and contain these
arcs that do occur, regardless of the
originating location of the arc. ArcGard
Magnum DS switchgear has been
tested in all three compartments for a
full 0.5 seconds, passing ANSI Type 2
and Type 2B standards at 100 kA at
508 V and 85 kA at 635 V.
Arc-Resistant Switchgear
Accessibility Types
Arc-resistant switchgear performance
is defined by its accessibility type in
accordance with IEEE test guide
C37.20.7 as follows:
Type 1: Switchgear with arc-resistant
designs or features at the freely
accessible front of the equipment only.
Type 2: Switchgear with arc-resistant
designs or features at the freely
accessible exterior (front, back
and sides) of the equipment only.
(Type 2 incorporates Type 1.)
Type 2B: Switchgear with Type 2
accessibility plus arc-resistant in
front of the instrument/control
compartment with the instrument/
control compartment door opened.
(Type 2B incorporates Type 2.)
All doors and covers are properly

closed and latched
Pressure relief devices are free to
operate
The fault energy available to the
equipment does not exceed the
rating of the equipment (shortcircuit current and duration)
There are no obstructions around
the equipment that could direct the
arc fault products into an area
intended to be protected
The equipment is properly
grounded
The user should also refer to

documents such as NFPA 70E, for
safety training and safe work practices
and methods of evaluating safe work
distances from energized equipment
based on the potential flash hazard,
and use proper PPE when working
on or near energized equipment
with the door/cover opened or not
properly secured.
Arc-Resistant Switchgear
Product Offering
Arc-resistant switchgear comes
standard with:
Up to 100 kA short circuit at 508 Vac

maximum and 85 kA short circuit at
635 Vac maximum
Up to 10 kA horizontal main bus

restrictions (requires 10-foot
floor to ceiling clearance)
Additional safety without
increasing the footprint of
regular Magnum DS switchgear
ANSI Type 2 arc-resistance: Type 2

arc-resistant switchgear regardless
of whether the arc originates the
breaker, bus or cable compartment
Stronger door and latch: The robust
doors are made of heavy 12 gauge
metal and secured with two-point
latches
Bellows and Two-Point Door Latch
Breaker bellows: Bellows surround

the breaker door, preventing arc
gasses from escaping around the
nose of the breaker while ensuring
easy racking of the breaker into the
disconnected position
Rear dynamic flap system: The
ventilation openings in the breaker
must be open during operation to
allow proper equipment ventilation,
but sealed off during an arc event.
The rear dynamic flap system uses
gravity to keep the flaps open
during normal operating conditions
and the arc pressure wave to close
the flaps during an arcing event. It
is a passively designed system so
there are no electrical or automated
parts that could break or fail

Magnum DS Power
Circuit Breakers
Eatons Type MDS power circuit
breakers constitute a complete,
modern and rugged line of low voltage
power circuit breakers using Eatons
DE-ION principle of arc extinction.
The breaker family is distinguished
by its similarity of appearance
and operation frame to frame. All
frame sizes are either manually or
electrically operated. Refer to Tab 26
for detailed information on Magnum
DS low voltage power circuit breakers.
Contacts
Magnum DS has silver tungsten
moving contacts and silver graphite
stationary contacts. The contacts
provide a long-wearing, low-resistance
joint. The contacts are protected from
arcing damage even after repeated
interruptions by the heel-toe action,
which causes the integral arcing
contacts to mate before the main
contacts part. The arcing contacts
then part last, striking the arc away
from the main contacts.
The main contacts are of the butt type
and are composed of multiple fingers
to give many points of contact without
alignment being critical.

Arc Chute
There are three basic means of
extinguishing an arc: lengthening
the arc path; cooling by gas blast or
contraction; deionizing or physically
removing the conduction particles
from the arc path.
The DE-ION principle is incorporated
in all Magnum DS circuit breakers.
This makes possible faster arc
extinction for a given contact travel,
ensures positive interruption and
minimum contact burning.
Levering Mechanism
4
5
6

8
The worm gear levering mechanism

is self-contained on the breaker
drawout element and engages
slots in the breaker compartment.
A standard 3/8-inch (10 mm) drive
set is used to lever the breaker
between the connected, test and
disconnected positions.
Mechanical interlocking is arranged
so that levering cannot be accomplished unless the breaker is in the
opened position.
Protection During Levering Operation
9

11
12
13
14
15
When levering the breaker between

the connected, test and disconnected
positions, the operator is protected
from contact with live parts by the
breaker door.
True two-step stored energy closing:
Refers to the sequence required to
charge and close the breaker.
1. The breaker closing springs are
charged either through the
manual-charging handle or by
the optional charging motor.
The breaker is mechanically interlocked to prevent closing of the
breaker until the closing springs
are fully charged.
17
2. With the closing springs fully

charged, the breaker can then
be closed by pressing the manual
close pushbutton on the breaker,
or by the optional spring release
coil through a remote electrical
signal.
18
This means that the energy required

to open the breaker is always restored
following a closing operation.
16
Stored energy is energy held in

waiting, ready to open or close the
breaker within five cycles or less.
The unique cam and spring design
provides necessary energy for a single
close-open sequence as well as the
energy for multiple charge-close
operations such as this possible
sequence: charge-close-rechargeopen-close-open.
The closing springs are interlocked
with the breaker racking mechanism
to ensure the closing springs are
discharged before the breaker can
be removed from the compartment.
Provisions for padlocking: All breakers
include provision for padlocking open
to prevent electrical or manual closing.
This padlocking can secure the breaker
in the connected, test or disconnected
position by preventing levering of the
breaker.
Ease of inspection and maintenance:
Magnum DS breakers are designed for
maximum accessibility and the utmost
ease of inspection and maintenance.
Manually operated breakers:
Manually operated breakers are
equipped with a manual charging
handle to charge the closing springs.
Manual closing and tripping pushbuttons are used to operate the breaker.
Remote closing and tripping can be
accomplished by installing optional
electric spring release and shunt trip
coils (see Tables 20.1-10 and 20.1-11 for
available control voltages, currents
and motor-operated spring charging
times). The breaker closing springs
must be charged manually, then
remote closing and tripping signals
can be sent to the breaker.
Electrically operated breakers:
Electrically operated breakers are
equipped with a spring charging motor
and electrically operated
spring release and shunt trip coils
(see Tables 20.1-10 and 20.1-11 for
available control voltages, currents
and motor-operated spring charging
times). The breaker manual charging
handle can be used to charge the
closing springs when power is not
available to the charging motor.

General DescriptionElectronic Trip Units
Trip Units
Digitrip RMS trip unit. Eatons
Digitrip RMS trip units feature a
dependent curve that is depicted in
the nameplate by a blue shaded area
of the trip curve. The dependent curve
affords better protection flexibility.
Additionally, all of the trip units have,
as standard, thermal memory, 50/60 Hz
operation and thermal self-protection
at 90 C.
Digitrip RMS integral microprocessorbased breaker overcurrent trip
systems: Provide maximum reliability
with true rms sensing as standard,
gives excellent repeatability and
requires minimum maintenance.
No external control source is
required for its protective functions.
Trip functions: Magnum DS trip units

provide the maximum in flexibility and
are available in the following configurations: LSI, LSIG, LSIA (ground fault
alarm only). In each case, either the
short delay or instantaneous (not both)
functions may be defeated. This
reduces the need for spare breaker
inventories and provides maximum
usage of interchangeable breakers.
Digitrip RMS 520: Enables the user
as many as nine phase and ground
current protection settings for maximum flexibility in trip-curve shaping
and multi-unit coordination, and adds
zone selective interlocking.
Digitrip RMS 520M: Adds phase,
neutral and ground current metering
with a four-character LCD display
window with 2% current metering
accuracy and type LSIA alarm when
ground fault settings are exceeded.
Digitrip RMS 520MC: Adds communication of trip values and breaker status
(open, close and tripped). Adds

Zone selective interlocking: The
Digitrip RMS zone selective interlocking
(ZSI) capability provides positive
system coordination without time
delays. ZSI allows the breaker closest
to the fault to trip without any preset
time delay. The breaker closest to the
fault trips first, while the remainder
of the distribution system remains
online, thus avoiding unnecessary
and costly downtime.
The use of ZSI in Spot Network
Systems is not recommended by
Eaton. See the discussion in section 18
for the technical reasons why Eaton
does not recommend ZSI in Spot
Network Systems.

Arcflash Reduction
Maintenance System
The Arcflash Reduction Maintenance
System Maintenance Mode function
of the Digitrip 520MC and 1150+ can
reduce arc flash incident energy that is
generated on a fault condition. Eatons
System employs a separate, dedicated
analog trip circuit that eliminates
microprocessor latencies, resulting
in clearing times that are faster than
standard instantaneous tripping. This
provides superior arc flash reduction
to competing systems that simply
lower the standard instantaneous
pickup set point.
There are three ways to arm the
Maintenance Mode Arc Flash
Reduction setting. One method is
locally at the trip unit front panel. For
the 520MC, the 2-position switch in the
Maintenance Mode section of the trip
unit is used. Turning the switch to the
ON position will arm the setting. For
the 1150+, the local front keypad is
used to enable the Maintenance Mode
setting. The setting is located in the
SYSTEM submenu of programmable
settings (PGM SET).
For the second method of arming the

Maintenance Mode function, a remote
switch wired through the breaker
secondary contacts can remotely
arm the Maintenance Mode setting. A
high-quality gold-plated or palladium
contact is required in this application.
A third method to arm the maintenance setting is via a communication
device. This can be accomplished
through a Power Xpert Gateway.
A BIM (Breaker Interface Module),
Power Xpert software or PowerNet
system is another communication
method to arm the setting.
For Magnum DS breakers, the Arcflash
Reduction Maintenance System setting
has five unique settings (2.5, 4.0, 6.0, 8.0,
10.0 x In). To adjust this setting, a rotary
switch on the trip unit face is provided
for the 520MC while the 1150+ trip unit
uses its local keypad. For the Series
NRX breakers, the Arcflash Reduction
Maintenance System setting has a
constant setting of 5000 A.
For all three arming methods, the
520MC provides a blue LED to confirm
the Maintenance Mode function is on.
In addition, there is also a normally
open breaker contact that allows the
user to wire in an external stacklight or
annunciator for remote indication. For
the 1150+, the message Maintenance
Mode Enabled will be shown on its
LED display. The 1150+ also has an
alarm relay that can be programmed
to track the Maintenance Mode state.
The Maintenance Mode function will

provide fast tripping even when the
regular Instantaneous is set to OFF.
The Instantaneous LED position is
also used to indicate a trip initiated
by the Maintenance Mode setting.
The 520MC LCD display, if powered,
will indicate with four dashes while
the 1150+ will display the message
Maintenance Mode Trip.
Arcflash Reduction Maintenance System
The Arcflash Reduction Maintenance

System can be wired out to a separate
lockable switch/light combination
mounted on the switchgear for ease
of operation. Additionally, the switch
can be wired out to a remote station
for operation outside the arc flash
boundary of the switchgear, and the
alarm can be wired to an optional
beacon or audible device.

Series NRXGeneral Description
Series NRX
Series NRX Breakers Have a Compact

But Powerful Size to Provide Interrupting
Ratings up to 65 kA at 480 Vac
General Description
The Series NRX provides the performance of a power circuit breaker
65 kA interrupting at 480 Vacin the
compact size of a molded case breaker.
It offers the protection and features of
a power circuit breaker, along with
increased flexibility at a portion of
the size.
All frame sizes are either electrically
or mechanically operated. The Series
NRX is tested to 20,000 mechanical
operations and 10,000 electrical
operationssignificantly higher than
industry standards, such as UL and
IEC, require or the capabilities of
equivalent products on the market.
Thus, your maintenance personnel
can do what needs to be done, instead
of spending valuable time inspecting
and maintaining the breakers in
the system.
In switchgear, its important that the

breaker be easily accessible during
scheduled equipment maintenance.
The design of the breaker and cassette
enables full use of the breaker handle
and cassette rails with a gloved hand,
allowing electricians to remain in the
appropriate PPE protective gear.
The breakers ergonomic design also
maximizes functionality. Individual
Series NRX breaker door will open in
a saloon or barn type of arrangement so that personnel can access one
of the side-by-side breakers without
having to interact with the other. The
breakers handle allows the operator
to easily apply leverage across seven
complete strokes (with an average
of only 21 lbs of force) charging
the breaker quickly and easily, and
making it easier to cycle when needed
during commissioning or scheduled
maintenance. Series NRX breakers use
a true two-step stored energy mechanism similar to Magnum DS breakers.
The reduced weight of the Series NRX
makes it easier to handle during startup and scheduled inspection. A threepole, fully populated drawout breaker
weighs only 54 lbs/24 kg.
The Series NRX enables twice as many
feeder breakers in a standard structure
for a reduction in overall assembly size
of up to 50%.
The small size, 10.00 inches (254.0 mm)
wide by 10.70 inches (271.8 mm) deep
by 14.20 inches (360.7 mm) high, of
the Series NRX allows for much higher
densities of power circuit breakers
in a structureup to eight breakers
in a 24.00-inch (609.6 mm) wide
structureand a 2.50-inch (63.5 mm)
customer wireway. This means that two
Series NRX breakers can be mounted
side-by-side in the same space typically
used for one Magnum DS breaker.
The Series NRX breakers can also be
mixed and matched with Magnum DS
breakers, increasing layout flexibility
and providing the ability to stack
feeder breakers around larger main
and tie breakers. See layout guide for
more details.
All optional Magnum DS breaker

attachments and accessories are also
available for the Series NRX breakers.
Series NRX accessories can be quickly
installed at the job site, without any
special tools. Each breaker comes
standard with an accessory tray; the
needed accessories simply plug and
lock into the tray.
The Series NRX uses one CT for the
breaker frame. This eliminates the
need to match CTs and rating plugs to
change the continuous current rating
of the breaker. For example, changing
from 1200 to 800 A on previous breaker
designs required changing CT from
1200 to 800 A and changing the rating
plug from 1200 to 800 A. The Series
NRX breaker simplifies this process
by only requiring changing the 1200 A
rating plug to 800 A. This is accomplished through the Series NRXs
Rogowski air core CT. The Rogowski
coil does not saturate like a traditional
ferrous core CT, allowing the CT to be
used across a broad current range
with greater accuracy. One sensor
accommodates 2001200 A range.
A full range of trip units, ranging from
basic protection (LSI or LSIG) to metering, system diagnostics, protective
relay functions and communications,
complement the breaker offering.
Two of the trip unit models, the
Digitrip 520M and 1150, include
(optional) Eatons Arcflash Reduction
Maintenance System, built to reduce
arc flash energy on a downstream
unit during system maintenance. Zone
selective interlocking is also available.
When communication capability
is required, the Series NRX breaker
has cassette-mounted modules,
eliminating the need for readdressing
replacement breakers. These DIN rail
mounted modules save space and
time during installation and are
available for field mounting capability.
Modules for Modus and Eatons
INCOM system are available with
future releases for PROFIBUS and
Ethernet compatible with Eatons
Power Xpert Architecture protocols.
Refer to Tab 26 for more detailed
information on Series NRX breakers.

Breaker Interface Module II (BIMII)
General Description
Local Subnetwork Display
The IQ 100 meter family provides

capabilities you would not normally
expect in affordable, compact meters,
such as fast sampling rate and
accurate metering for a full range
of power attributes. Providing the
first line of defense against costly
power problems, Eatons IQ 100 series
electronic power meters can perform
the work of an entire wall of legacy
metering equipment using todays
technology.
See Tab 4.
When space is at a premium, yet

you need ANSI C12.20 accuracy, the
IQ 100 series fits the bill. These meters
are ideal for electrical equipment
assemblies, machine control panels,
such as panelboard and switchboard
mains and feeders, low voltage metalenclosed switchgear feeders and
motor control centers. Requiring far
less space than other meters with
similar functionality, IQ 100 series
meters fit into a standard ANSI or
IEC cutout on a panelboard or other
electrical equipment, and therefore
fit easily into retrofit applications.
Typical Applications
The breaker interface module is a

panel-mounted device that performs
the following functions:
Monitors and displays parameters

from Digitrip 1150+ circuit breaker
trip unit. Supports as many as 50
of these devices up to 10,000 ft
(3048 m) away
Communicates the information from
these protective and energy monitoring devices over a PowerNet
network to a computer or PLC
Communications
For remote power monitoring and
software, see PowerNet Tab 2.

Where continuity of service is a high

priority, high-resistance grounding can
add the safety of a grounded system
while minimizing the risk of service
interruptions due to grounds. The
concept is a simple one: provide a path
for ground current via a resistance that
limits the current magnitude, and
monitor to determine when an
abnormal condition exists.
This provides for maximum continuity

of service, because no tripping occurs
for the resistance limited ground fault.

For lower than maximum load currents, watt

loss may be estimated by reducing the full
load loss by the following:
WL = (IL/IFL)2 WFL
Where:
WL = Load Watts
WFL = Full Load Watts
IL = Actual Load Current
IFL = Full Load Current

Notes: Full Load of Section or Breaker comes from the frame or bus ratings of the product.
Actual Amperes is a loading profile over all the devices for the operating scenario of interest.
Rating Factor is a value that appropriately weights the nominal losses at full load to the actual losses for the actual loading value.
The formula is Rating Factor = (Actual Loading/Full Load Rating) x (Actual Loading/Full Load Rating).
The Rating Factor is applied (multiplied) by the Full Load Loss Watts to get Net Watts for each item.
See Table 20.1-7 for Nominal heat loss data for devices and sections.

Interrupting ratings shown based on breaker equipped with integral Digitrip RMS trip unit. Interruption ratings for non-automatic breakers are equal
to the published short-time withstand rating. These interruption ratings are based on the standard duty cycle consisting of an open operation, a
15-second interval and a close-open operation, in succession, with delayed tripping in case of short-delay devices. The standard duty cycle for
short-time ratings consists of maintaining the rated current for two periods of 1/2 second each, with a 15-second interval of zero current between
the two periods.
Magnum MDSL current limiting power circuit breaker with integral current limiters. Current limiter selected determines short-time and fixed
instantaneous trip rating. Maximum voltage rating is 600 Vac.
Magnum MDSX current limiting power circuit breaker with fast opening contacts.
Product to be tested. Contact Eaton for product rating.
Series NRX uses the same sensors for all trip settings. No changes to sensors required.

RMS tripping devices. Repeatability is
within 2%.
Breaker Frame
Rating
800, 1600, 2000
The maximum breaker current rating

for any breaker frame size is determined by the rating of the sensor used.
The breaker current rating for any
frame size can be changed by simply
changing the sensors and associated
rating plug, which are easily removed
from the breaker drawout element.
The wide range of long-delay pickup
makes one set of sensors more flexible
on a wider range of loads. The Digitrip
RMS itself need not be changed when
the associated sensors and rating
plugs are changed.

Every Eaton Magnum DS trip unit
comes standard with LSI characteristics. Optional ground (G) or ground
alarm (A) may also be provided.
These trip units also provide the
ability to defeat instantaneous to
provide LS protection only. In addition,
short delay protection may be set to
the maximum instantaneous level,
effectively disabling short delay
protection. Under no condition is it
possible to set the trip unit beyond
the capabilities of the circuit breaker.
Current transformers with meter accuracy classifications at higher burdens and/or suitable for relaying
are also available. They will be mounted in the rear cable connection compartment.

A transition section is required if connecting to a non-standard dry-type transformer or auxiliary and metering devices are to be located in a transition
section, or there is a fire pump breaker required, or there is a zero sequence ground fault required.
A maximum of two 3200 A breakers are permitted per 22.00-inch (558.8 mm) width of switchgear, one of which must be a main or tie. A 3200 A frame
breaker cannot be mounted in the same enclosure with a 4000 A main or tie. For a 3200 A frame breaker mounted in the same enclosure with a 5000 A
main or tie, contact Eaton.
Contact Eaton for placement of 2000 A frame breaker in this compartment.
A maximum of three 2000 A breakers are 22.00-inch (558.8 mm) width of switchgear. If three are required, positions B, C and D must be used.
Any 22.00-inch (558.8 mm) wide compartment can be a blank or instrument compartment.
Notes: Breaker and cell utilization should keep load amperes below rating of MAIN due to vertical bus limitations.
Cable used in the conduit areas are limited to 75 C ampacity values per the NEC for ampacity calculations.

A maximum of two 3200 A breakers are permitted per 22.00-inch (559 mm) width of switchgear,
one of which must be a main or tie. A 3200 A frame breaker cannot be mounted in the same
enclosure with a 4000 A main or tie. For a 3200 A frame breaker mounted in the same enclosure
with a 5000 A or 6000 A main or tie, contact Eaton.
When a top-of-gear breaker lifter is used, height is 99.00 inches (2514.6 mm) total.
Any 22.00-inch (558.8 mm) wide compartment can be a blank or instrument compartment with the
following exception: 44.00-inch (1117.6) wide instrument compartment must be adjacent to
another 44.00-inch (1117.6) wide compartment in the structure.
Need a 44.00-inch wide section on both sides of the tie for layout to be correct.
Notes: Breaker and cell utilization should keep load amperes below rating of MAIN due to
vertical bus limitations. Cable used in the conduit areas are limited to 75 C ampacity
values per the NEC for ampacity calculations. Any cell not used as a feeder breaker
may be a blank, or a feeder breaker provision for future breakers, or SPD surge.

Magnum DS circuit breakers meet or

exceed all applicable requirements of
ANSI Standards C37.13, C37.17, C37.50
and CSA.
System Voltage and Frequency

Magnum DS breakers are designed for
operation on AC systems only, 60 Hz or
50 Hz, 635 V maximum.
Continuous Current Ratings
4
5
6
7
Unlike transformers, generators and

motors, circuit breakers are maximumrated devices and have no built-in
temporary overload current ratings.
Consequently, it is vital that each application take into consideration
the maximum anticipated current
demand, initial and future, including
temporary overloads.
10
The continuous rating of any Magnum

DS breaker is limited to the sensor
rating, or the frame size current rating,
whichever is the lesser. For instance,
an MDS-616 1600 A frame breaker
with 800 A sensors has a maximum
continuous rating of 800 A, but the
same breaker with 1600 A sensors
is limited to 1600 A maximum.
11
All current ratings are based on a

maximum ambient air temperature
of 40 C (104 F).

kAIC rating is required. Per IEEE

sanctioned methodology, the
calculated short circuit current at the
point of interest is increased by the
Table 20.1-27 multiplying factors (MF)
to yield an apparent value of short
circuit current, which is then compared to the published breaker ratings.
Only breakers having published
ratings higher than the apparent
fault current can be safely applied.
For example, if unfused air power
breakers rated 65 kAIC were being
considered within a 480/277 Vac
distribution system where the X/R
at the point of breaker application is
14.25 and the calculated fault current
was determined to be 60 kA, the
determination of the suitability of
these breakers yields:
All low voltage air power circuit

breakers are tested per the ANSI
Standard C37.1 for a system X/R ratio
of 6.6 maximum. It is common within
low voltage systems to experience
power factor and X/R values outside
the range of the standard values, and
thus a means to evaluate published
product ratings is necessary.
Apparent Fault Current = 60 kA x MF

= 60 kA x 1.112
= 66.72 kA
and therefore because 66.72 kA
exceeds the 65 kAIC rating, the
breakers are not adequate and
higher rated kAIC breakers would
need to be applied.
For applications of power breakers

within distribution systems having
calculated X/R ratios higher than 6.6,

Unusual Environmental and

Operating Conditions
Special attention should be given
to applications subject to the
following conditions:
1. Damaging or hazardous fumes,
vapors, etc.
2. Excessive or abrasive dust.
For such conditions, it is generally
recommended that the switchgear
be installed in a clean, dry room,
with filtered and/or pressurized
clean air. This method permits the
use of standard indoor switchgear
and avoids the derating effect of
non-ventilated enclosures.
3. Salt spray, excessive moisture,
dripping, etc.
Drip shields in equipment rooms
and space heaters in indoor
weatherproof enclosures, may
be indicated, depending upon
the severity of the conditions.
4. Excessively high or low ambient

temperatures.
For ambient temperatures exceeding 40 C, and based on a standard
temperature rise of 65 C, the continuous current ratings of breaker
frame sizes, and also buses, current
transformers, etc., will be subject
to a derating factor calculated
from the following formula:
105 TotalSpecial Ambient, C
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------105 Total40 C Standard Ambient
Circuit breakers are not adversely
affected by very low outdoor
ambient temperatures, particularly
when energized and carrying
load currents. The standard
space heaters in weatherproof
switchgear will raise the
temperature slightly and
prevent condensation.
Electrical components such as
relays and instruments, however,
must be applied within the
manufacturers specified limits.

5. Exposure to seismic shock.

Magnum DS assemblies and
breakers have been certified for
applications through International
Building Code 2009 (IBC) and
California Building Code 2010
(CBC). Assembly modifications
may be required, so such
conditions must be specified.
6. Abnormally high frequency
of operation.
In line with above, a lesser number
of operations between servicing,
and more frequent replacement
of parts, may be indicated.
