(3) time setting is manual and can be carried out automatically by the supervisor via the communications bus.

The communications bus requires its own 24 V DC power source (E1, E2). This source
is not the same as the 24 V DC external power-supply module (F1-, F2+).
The BAT battery module, mounted in series upstream of the AD module, ensures an
uninterrupted supply of power if the AD module power supply fails.
The voltage measurement inputs are standard equipment on the downstream
connectors of the circuit breaker.
External connections are possible using the PTE external voltage measurement input
option. With this option, the internal voltage measurement inputs are disconnected and
terminals VN, V1 and V2 are connected only to the control unit (Micrologic P and H only).
The PTE option is required for voltages less than 100 V and greater than 690 V (in which
case a voltage transformer is required). For three-pole devices, the system is supplied
with terminal VN connected only to the control unit (Micrologic P and H).
When the PTE option is implemented, the voltage measurement input must be protected
against short-circuits. Installed as close as possible to the busbars, this protection
function is ensured by a P25M circuit breaker (1 A rating) with an auxiliary contact (cat.
no. 21104 and 21117). This voltage measurement input is reserved exclusively for the
control unit and must not ever be used to supply other circuits outside the switchboard.

If the 2000/6300 current transformer is used:
c Signals SG1 and SG2 must be wired in series.
c Signals X1 and X2 must be wired in parallel.
Connection for signal VN is required only for power

A pilot wire interconnects a number of circuit breakers equipped with Micrologic A/P/H
control units, as illustrated in the diagram above.
The control unit detecting a fault sends a signal upstream and checks for a signal
arriving from downstream. If there is a signal from downstream, the circuit breaker
remains closed for the full duration of its tripping delay. If there is no signal from
downstream, the circuit breaker opens immediately, whatever the tripping-delay setting.
Fault 1.

Only circuit breaker A detects the fault. Because it receives no signal from downstream,
it immediately opens in spite of its tripping delay set to 0.3.
Fault 2.

Circuit breakers A and B detect the fault. Circuit breaker A receives a signal from B and
remains closed for the full duration of its tripping delay set to 0.3. Circuit breaker B does
not receive a signal from downstream and opens immediately, in spite of its tripping
delay set to 0.2.

Installation

Installation in switchboard

Mounting position

Power supply
Masterpact devices can be supplied either from the top or from the bottom without
reduction in performance.

Mounting the circuit-breaker


It is important to distribute the weight of the device uniformily over a rigid mounting
surface such as rails or a base plate.
This mounting plane should be perfectly flat (tolerance on support flatness: 2 mm).
This eliminates any risk of deformation which could interfere with correct operation
of the circuit breaker.
Masterpact devices can also be mounted on a vertical plane by the use of brackets
(optional extra).

Mounting on rails.

Mounting with vertical brackets.

Busbars and Partitions


Where busbars and busbar connections pass through

Cable-type door interlock


Connection of MN, MX and XF
voltage releases
NW Cable-type door interlock
This option prevents door opening when the circuit breaker is closed and prevents
circuit breaker closing when the door is open.
For this, a special plate associated with a lock and a cable is mounted on the right
side of the circuit breaker.
With this interlock installed, the source changeover function cannot be
implemented.

Wiring of voltage releases


During pick-up, the power consumed is approximately 150 to 200 VA. For low
control voltages (12, 24, 48 V), maximum cable lengths are imposed by the voltage
and the cross-sectional area of cables.

Power connection

Cables connections
When cable connections are required it is important to
ensure that no excessive mechanical forces are
applied to the rear terminals.
It is recommended that connections are made as
follows:
c Extend the circuit breaker terminals using short
bars designed and installed according to the
recommendations for bar-type power connections:
v For a single cable, use solution B opposite.
v For multiple cables, use solution C opposite.
c In all cases, follow the general rules for
connections to busbars:
v Position the cable lugs before inserting the bolts
v The cables should be firmly secured to the
framework of the switchboard.

Busbars connections

The busbars should be suitably adjusted to ensure


that the connection points are positioned on the
terminals before the bolts are inserted (B)
The connections are held by the support which is
solidly fixed to the framework of the switchboard, such
that the circuit breaker terminals do not have to
support its weight (C).

A
B

Electrodynamic stresses
The first busbar support or spacer should be situated within a maximum distance
from the connection point of the breaker (see table below). This distance must be
respected so that the connection can withstand the electrodynamic stresses
between phases in the event of a short circuit.
Maximum distance A between busbar to circuit breaker connection and the first busbar
support or spacer with respect to the value of the prospective short-circuit current.

Clamping
Correct clamping of busbars depends amongst other things, on the tightening
torques used for the nuts and bolts. Over-tightening may have the same
consequences as under-tightening.
For connecting busbars to the circuit breaker, the tightening torques to be used are
shown in the table below.
These values are for use with copper busbars and steel nuts and bolts, class 8.8.
The same torques can be used with AGS-T52 quality aluminium bars (French
standard NFA 02-104 or American National Standard H-35-1).

Temperature derating
The table below indicates the maximum current rating,
for each connection type, as a function of the ambient

Circuit breakers with mixed connections have the
same derating as horizontally connected breakers.
For ambient temperatures greater than 60 C,
consult us.
