With over 100 years of experience dating back to Henry
Cutter’s first “inverse time element” circuit breaker in the late
nineteenth century, L-3 SPD Electrical Systems (L-3 SPDES)
is the world’s leading supplier of innovative, shock-hardened
circuit breakers and switchgear for harsh environment
applications.
L-3 SPDES’ Navy Type ACB-4012 is a draw-out style, low-
voltage air circuit breaker that is rated for a continuous
current of 4,000 A at 500 VAC and a symmetrical interrupting
rating of 85 kARMS. The L-3 ACB-4012 is ideal for applications
where integrated control, condition based maintenance, and
power monitoring are required.
Originally a commercial design, L-3 SPDES has ruggedized
the ACB-4012 circuit breaker assembly to qualified military
specifications MIL-DTL-17587; MIL-S-901, Grade A; and MIL-
STD-167-1A, Type 1 (4 to 33 Hz) for use in harsh conditions
experienced on board navy ships. The circuit breaker is
designed for easy front access so that the unit can be
controlled and monitored safely through an access port on
the front door of a switchgear enclosure.

OPERATION
The main operations of the circuit breaker are as follows:
• Opening: The opening of the breaker can be initiated with or without control power applied using the red PUSH OFF push-button
• Charging: The closing springs can be charged, either automatically (when control power is applied to the charging motor) or manually (using the charging handle) after the breaker has been opened
• Closing: Once the closing springs have been charged, the breaker can be closed using the green PUSH ON push-button with or without control power applied
• Resetting a fault trip: If a protective trip occurs, the reset button on the protective device can be used to clear the fault alarm after the cause is resolved

RETROFITTING
The L-3 SPDES ACB-4012 is a form, fit, and
function replacement for the ACB-4010HR and
can also be adapted to fit into ACB-4000HR
switchboards using a modified cradle design.
The modified cradle for the ACB-4000HR is
shown below with the overall dimensions.
Approved for Release. Distribution is unlimited.

CRADLE FEATURES
The cradle is designed for installation into a switchboard using two mounting brackets located under the cradle (one in the front and one near the back). Once installed, the cradle provides the following features:
• Cradle track extension arm – the track extension arm holding the breaker in position can be lowered and used to rack out and/or hold the circuit breaker in the TEST or DISCONNECT positions using two locking pins (stored in a locking block on the front cover)
• Line and load conductors – three pairs in back for connecting three phases of buswork
• Secondary disconnect assembly – the secondary disconnect terminal blocks and connectors provide customer connections to the circuit breaker control and monitoring circuits
• 300 VAC control power step-down transformer - converts a 450 VAC input signal to 120 VAC internal control voltage

PROTECTION
The L-3 SPDES circuit breaker is equipped with a sophisticated electronic protection module to provide configurable power monitoring capabilities and automatic equipment protection. The built-in electronic protection module enables:
SYSTEM STATUS
• Protection module – operating status using LED indicating lights and messages displayed on the 3-line LED display
• Racking mechanism – contains flags that indicate when the breaker is fully in the CONNECTED, TEST, or DISCONNECT positions
• Operating mechanism – The Charged/Discharged and Open/Closed status indicator flags are mechanically linked to the auxiliary switch to show breaker status
• Two indicating lamps that protrude from the front cover indicate the status of the breaker (green = closed, red = open)
