DO NOT ATTEMPT TO INSTALL OR PERFORM MAINTENANCE ON EQUIPI'ENT WHILE IT IS ENER. GZED. DEATH, SEVERE PERSONAL IruURY, OR SUBSTANNAL PROPERTY DAMAGE CAN RESULT FROM CONTACT WITH ENERGIZED EOUIPMENT. ALWAYS VERIFY THATNO VOLTAGE IS PRESENT BEFORE PROCEEDING WITH THE TASK, AND ALWAYS FOLLOW GENERALLY ACCEPTED SAFE. TY PROCEDURES.
The recommendations and information contained herein are based on Cutler-Hammer experience and judgement, but should not be considered to be all-inclusive or covering every application or circumstance which may arise. lf any questions arise, contact Cutler-Hammer for further information or instructions. General Information
The G-Frame instantaneous-only (magnetic) motor circuit protector (MCP) (Figure 1-1) is available in ratings from 3A to 634 continuous current for motor starter sizes 0 through 2. The MCP is designed to comply with the applicable requirements of Underwriters Laboratories, lnc. Standard UL489 and the International Electrotechnical Commission Recommendations No.
CUTLER.HAMMER IS NOT LIABLE FOR THE MISAP. PLICATION OR MISINSTALLATION OF ITS PROD.

The MCP is a UL recognized component under file E7819. lt is used primarily to provide short-circuit protection as part of a combination controller where other -ci rWil prot'ective f r.rnctions are per{orrned-by otherdevices within the controller. The MCP is suitable for reverse feed applications. For more information, see
f .D.29-321.

This instruction leaflet (lL) gives procedures'for installation, operation, inspection, and field testing of G-Frame MCP's.
2-O INSTALLATION
The installation procedure consists of inspecting and mounting the MCP, connecting and torquing the line and load terminations, and aaching terminal shields when required. To installthe MCP, perfonn the following steps:

BEFORE MOU}|T|NG THE MCP IN AN ELECTRICAL SYSTEII, IIAKE SURE THE IICP IS SWTTCHED TO. THE OFF POS|TION AND THATTHERE IS NO VOLT' AGE PRESENT WHERE WORK IS TO BE PER. FORMED. THEVOLTAGES IN ENERGIZED EQUIP. MENT CAN CAUSE DEATH OR SEVERE PERSONAL
INJURY,
An adapter kit (S#1275C79G02) suitable for use with standard 35 millimeter DIN rail (such as 35 mm x7.5 or 35 mm x 15 per DIN EN50022), should be preassembled to the rear of the circuit breaker (Figure 2-2).

WHEN ALUMINUM CONDUCTORS ARE USED, THE APPLICATION OF A SUITABLE JOINT COMPOUND IS RECOMMENDED TO REDUCE THE POSSIBILITY OF TERMINAL OVERHEATING. TERMINAL OVER. HEATING CAN CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE MCP. 2-3. After mounting the MCP, line and load cables and accessory leads should be connected. (See accessory schematic diagram on side of MCP.)
Depending on the equipment configuration, the MCP can be mounted using different styles of hardware. The following steps describe,how to mount the MCP using standard hardware. When special hardware is needed (for example, with handle mechanisms), the instruction leaflet describing the accessory also describes the special mounting arrangements.
a. b.
For individual mounting panels, make sure that mounting panel is predrilled using drilling plan (Figure 2-1).
lf MCP includes factory installed internal accessories, make sure accessory wiring can be reached when the MCP is mounted.
Position MCP on mounting surface.

Once the F setting has been reached, continue adjusting in the same direction to return to.theAsetting. To adjust the{riplevel, perform the following steps:
3-1. Determine the motor full load cunent from the motor nameplate. Refer to Table 3.1 and select appropriate MCP trip setting. Using a srnallscreurdriver, rotate wheel in direction indicated (See Frgure 3r-1) to the appropriate seing.
PUSH.TO.TRIP Button The PUSH-TO-TRIP button checks the tripping function and id used to periodically exercise the operating mechanism. The button is designed to be operated by using
a small screwdriver.
b 3-2. For closest protection, turn the adjustrnent successively lower settings until the MCP bip rtrcn e motor is started. Only adjust in direction ndk]#d (S* Figure 3-1). When this setting has been detemred turn the adjustment wheel to the next highet si4 The MCP is now adjusted for normaloperation.
