Technology and innovationfor advanced plant engineering requirements
The constant increase in the technological and functional com-plexity of electrical installations makes it essential for everycomponent - particularly those such as protection circuit-break-ers which are crucial to safety - to offer the highest levels ofcontinuity of service and reliability combined with minimalmaintenance requirements.
ABB SACE L.V. has designed the new generation of SACE Emaxlow voltage power circuit-breakers in line with these advancedplant engineering requirements, and featuring high resistanceto mechanical, electrical and thermal stresses.
SACE Emax circuit-breakers represent the logical functionalcomplement to SACE Isomax S molded case circuit-breakersand have, like them, been designed for integration and perfectco-ordination with the different lines of ABB low voltage prod-ucts.
The design and manufacture of the new circuit-breakers fol-low advanced ergonimical criteria, in line with the solutionsadopted for selection and use of SACE Isomax S switchgear -entirely to the benefit of all catagories of customers and users.
Two aspects received particular attention during design: themodular versatility and physical dimensions of the differentsizes, reduced from the six of the SACE Megamax series tofour.
SACE Emax circuit-breakers are available in five different models:E1, E2, E3, E4 and E6, each of which benefits from the inter-changeability of the various different versions of moving parts(with different breaking and rated current capacities) for thesame fixed part. The rated uninterrupted currents range from800 to 5000 A.
The breaking capacities, which have been improved in rela-tion to the previous series, range from 42 kA to 125 kA (480 Va.c.).
The new serieshas been designedin accordance withthe most modernergonomical criteria,and the evidencefor this can be seen inthe prize awarded tothe circuit-breakers atthe Hanover ForumDesign.

The principal benefits of thenew SACE Emax circuit-breakers are as follows:
••••• Smaller overall dimensions
••••• Dimensions (height anddepth) the same across theentire series
••••• Common accessories forthe entire range
••••• The same service releasesfor a.c./d.c. applications
••••• Shared components - e.g.the opening and closingreleases are the same
••••• Easy assembly of the cur-rent transformers (CT)
••••• Accessories fitted withoutneed for cabling, reducingstock levels and optimizing“logistical” costs
••••• Distances from exposedconductive parts to be re-spected zero for withdraw-able circuit-breakers
••••• Simplified construction ofelectrical switchboards.
Briefly, high safety, quality,and rational design charac-teristics combined with com-pact dimensions are the re-sults of the totally innovativedesign criteria which lie be-hind SACE Emax circuit-breakers.

More efficient, safer installations
SACE Emax circuit-breakers not only ensure the high level ofreliability needed to achieve the necessary service continuity,but also offer a high level of safety for everyone operating onthe installation, both during functional customization andduring inspection and maintenance.
The risk of carrying out incorrect and dangerous sequencesof operations is prevented of suitable locks.
Each sequence is only enabled if all the conditions which en-sure it can be carried out safely and correctly followed.
In any case, the state of the switchgear is automatically takento the highest safety level for the operator performing theoperation.
Accessories are installed from the front of the circuit-breakerwith cabling pre installed and the accessories section is sepa-rate from the power circuit.
Going into greater detail, the main solutions adopted to pro-tect operators in the various different operating conditions areas follows:
••••• Double insulation, to ensure total separation between theaccessories and the power circuit.
••••• Key locks or padlock devices, to control enabling of open-ing and closing operations and/or racking in and out
••••• Racking out with the door closed, allows the circuit-breakerto be racked out in its fixed part with the switchboard doorclosed.
••••• Anti-insertion locks, to prevent moving parts from beinginserted into fixed parts with different rated currents or whenthe circuit-breaker is closed.

“Intelligent design”
Electrical installation designers choosing the new SACE Emaxcircuit-breakers can offer a vast range of solutions that enablethem to satisfy the specific demands of every user withoutobliging them to adapt their needs to the switchgear avail-able.
When looking through the detailed SACE Emax catalogue ofthe complete and highly specialized range, the versatility andpossibility of optimal sizing become immediately apparent. Therated current and breaking capacity levels have been studiedto ensure optimal sizing in all plant configurations.
The need to optimize the management of electrical installa-tions is increasingly being recognized today, particularly wherepower consumption, control, monitoring, diagnostics and, con-sequently, maintenance operations are concerned.
Benefiting from the know-how acquired with its other series ofcircuit-breakers, ABB SACE L.V. has specially designed andmanufactured a family of microprocessor-based trip units,called SACE PR111 and PR112, that are able to provide awide range of important dedicated functions for SACE Emaxcircuit-breakers.
The SACE PR112 trip unit, in particular, features a 16 bit micro-processor and 12 bit analogue to digital converter, making itsperformance even more accurate.
As a result, the work of specifiers and designers is consider-ably simplified when it comes to choosing the technical char-acteristics and performance required.
All this is thanks to the fact that the selection criteria are com-mon to several families of circuit-breakers and use intuitiveand easy-to-read codes and symbols.
The new circuit-breakers build on the successful experienceacquired with the SACE Isomax S family, continuing a traditionof switchgear designed and manufactured paying particularattention to use and user interface-related aspects, with obvi-ous advantages in terms of ergonomics, clarity and speed ofidentification.

Compact switchboards
The need to build increasingly compactswitchboards to satisfy the architecturaland technical requirements of modernbuildings while simultaneously rationaliz-ing the related construction process is fullymet by the new SACE Emax circuit-break-ers which have a constant depth andheight from 800 through to 5000 A.
The new ABB SACE L.V. “power” circuit-breaker makes it possible to standardizethe support structures for the circuit-breakers, considerably facilitating con-struction of the switchboards them-selves.
The reduced width of the circuit-breakeroffers the benefit of more rational use ofthe space available and makes it possi-ble to build compact switchboards.
Moreover, the fact that a wide range ofterminals is available for the entire se-ries makes it possible to build switch-boards mounted against walls or switch-boards which can be accessed from be-hind with rear connections.

Optimal warehouse management
A single range of accessories serves theentire SACE Emax series of circuit-break-ers. This standardization enables optimalwarehouse management while simultane-ously ensuring flexibility. Electrical dis-tributors and every customer who has tomanage maintenance and spare parts forlarge installations consequently benefitsfrom simpler warehouse management.
The ease with which accessories are in-stalled makes modular fitting operationsfast and safe, allowing even the end cus-tomer to carry out the customizing re-quired in each different phase of the lifeof an installation.
The designer’s job is made much easiersince the switchgear can be chosen wellin advance, preventing any overlappingwith the phase for finalizing the construc-tion details.
The current transformers for the differentrated currents of the trip units are verysimple to change, meaning the end cus-tomer can also carry out this operation.
SACE PR111 and PR112 microproces-sor-based trip units are, likewise, easyto change and are also interchangeable.
Moreover, conversion kits are availablefor the different terminal solutions and ver-sions of the circuit-breaker, allowing avery high level of warehouse rationaliza-tion.
The fixed parts for withdrawable circuit-breakers are common to each model, ir-respective of the rated current and break-ing capacity.

Operating mechanismThe operating mechanism is of the stored energy type, oper-ated using pre-charged springs.
The springs are charged manually by operating the frontlever or using a motor operator, supplied on request.
The opening springs are charged automatically during the clos-ing operation.
With the operating mechanism fitted with shunt closing andopening releases and the motor operator for charging thesprings, the circuit-breaker can be operated by remote con-trol and, if required, co-ordinated by a supervision and controlsystem.
The following operating cycles are possible without recharg-ing the springs:
– starting with the circuit-breaker open and the springscharged: closing-opening
– starting with the circuit-breaker closed and the springscharged: opening-closing-opening.
The same operating mechanism is used for the entire seriesand is fitted with a mechanical and electrical anti-pumpingdevice.

Identification of circuit-breakers
Where the dimensions of the circuit-breakers are concerned,they are divided into four sizes, each with the same externaldimensions. There is one model in each size, with the excep-tion of size 1, which has two models with different electricalspecifications (E1 and E2).
The circuit-breakers are identified using the following code:

Versions and connections
All the circuit-breakers are available in fixed and withdrawablethree-pole version.
Each model of circuit-breaker has terminals made of silver-plated copper bars which have the same dimensions irrespec-tive of the rated currents of the circuit-breakers (except forE3).
The fixed parts of each model of withdrawable circuit-break-ers are the same for every rated current and breaking capac-ity of the related moving parts (except for E3).
The fact that different types of terminals are available makes itpossible to build switchboards that can be mounted againstwalls or accessed from the rear with rear connections.
The circuit-breakers can be fitted with different combinationsof top and bottom terminals to meet special installation needs.

SACE PR111 and PR112 microprocessor-basedtrip units
The overcurrent protection for alternat-ing current installations is provided bytwo types of microprocessor-based tripunits in the SACE PR111 and PR112 se-ries which can be installed as alterna-tives on SACE Emax circuit-breakers:
• SACE PR111 with protection functionsonly
• SACE PR112 with protection, currentmeasuring and signalling functions
The protection units can be three-phaseor three-phase with external neutral de-pending on the type of circuit-breakerused.
The protection unit comprises:
• 3 current transformers (CTs) (the fourthmay be external)
• one protection unit which can be ei-ther a SACE PR111/P-A or PR112/P-A
• an opening solenoid which acts di-rectly on the circuit-breaker operatingmechanism (always supplied with theprotection unit).
The main characteristics of these micro-processor-based trip units are:
• operation without the need for an ex-ternal power supply
• microprocessor technology (8 bit forSACE PR111 and 16 bit for SACEPR112)
• high precision
• sensitive to the true r.m.s. value of thecurrent
• external neutral normally set to 50% ofthe setting for the phases, with the pos-sibility of setting it to 100% (to order onE1, E2, E3).

Installation in switchboards
Modular designThe circuit-breakers in the SACE Emax series have been madefollowing modular design criteria to facilitate their installationand integration in L.V. electrical switchboards, giving them thesame depth and height for every model while simultaneouslyachieving a significant reduction in their overall installation di-mensions.
Furthermore, the front metal shield of the circuit-breaker is iden-tical for the entire series. This simplifies the construction of theswitchboard doors since only one type of drilling is requiredand makes the front of the switchboard the same for all sizes.

Choosing the type of circuit-breakerNumber of poles
The choice of the number of poles for circuit-breakers whichsimultaneously provide switching, protection and isolation func-
For users that do not use theneutral (e.g.: asynchronousmotors) and, generally, forlines without neutral (non-dis-tributed neutral).
Current transformers can beinstalled on the externalneutral of five-wire systems(TN-S) with 3-pole circuit-breakers
THREE-POLE CIRCUIT-BREAKERS WITH EXTERNALNEUTRAL
Fixed or withdrawableversion
The fixed version of the cir-cuit-breaker has more com-pact dimensions than thewithdrawable version. It isrecommended for installa-tions that can tolerate serv-ice interruptions in the eventof faults or routine mainte-nance.
The withdrawable version ofthe circuit-breaker is recom-mended for:
– applications that can onlytolerate brief interruptionsdue to faults or routinemaintenance:
– dual lines, one of which isa standby for the other, witha single circuit-breaker foreach pair.
For TN-C systems (interrup-tion of the neutral is not ad-missible because it also actsas the protection conductor).
tions in three phase installations depends on the type of elec-trical system (TN-S, TN-C, IT) and the type of user or, moregenerally, whether it features a distributed or non-distributedneutral.

Connecting the main circuit-breaker circuits
When designing switchboards, one mustalways bear in mind the problem of mak-ing the connections between the circuit-breaker and main busbar system and the“feeder circuit”. The SACE Emax seriesoffers switchboard experts a range of op-tions to satisfy different circuit-breakerconnection requirements.
The figures at the side show a number ofindications for terminal selection.
Installation in switchboards
Degrees of protectionA number of solutions have beenadopted on SACE Emax circuit-break-ers to achieve degree of protection IP22for fixed or withdrawable circuit-break-ers excluding their terminals, and IP30for their front parts using a flange. Auto-matic shutters have been designed forthe fixed parts of withdrawable circuit-breakers which can be locked usingpadlock devices to allow maintenanceof the load side or power-supply side ofthe fixed part.
In addition, a transparent protectivecover is available on request, whichcompletely segregates the front part ofthe circuit-breaker, taking the degree ofprotection to IP54 (NEMA 3/3S/13) whilestill leaving the front panel and protec-tion trip unit with its related indicationsfully visible.

Up to a height of 2000 metres, the SACE Emax air circuit-breakers do not undergo any changes in their rated perform-ance. As the altitude increases their atmospheric propertiesalter in terms of composition, dielectric capacity, cooling powerand pressure.
The performance of the circuit-breakers therefore undergoes
Altitude derating
derating which can basically be measured by means of thevariation in significant parameters such as the maximum ratedvoltage of operation and the rated uninterrupted current.
The table below shows the above-mentioned values in relationto the altitude.

Operation and protection functions
Power supply
The trip unit does not require an external power supply, beingself-powered using the current transformers installed on thecircuit-breaker. Operation requires at least one phase to beloaded at 20% of the rated current of the current transformers(In).
Protection functionsThe SACE PR111 trip unit offers the following protection func-tions:
• overload (L)
• selective short-circuit (S)
• instantaneous short-circuit (I)
• ground fault (G).
See the following section for the range of settings available.
Overload (L)The inverse long time-delay trip overload protection L is of thetype I2t = k. Eight current thresholds and 4 curves indicated bythe letters A, B, C, D are available. Each curve is identified bythe trip time in relation to the current I = 6 x I1 (I1 = thresholdset).
Selective short-circuit (S)
The inverse short time-delay trip or definite short time-delaytrip short-circuit protection S can be set with two different typesof curves with a trip time that is independent of the current (t =k) or with a constant specific let-through energy (t = k/I2).
Seven current thresholds and 4 curves indicated by the lettersA, B, C, D are available. Each curve is identified as follows:
– for curves (t = k) by the trip time for I > I2
– for curves t = k/I2 by the trip time for I = 8 x In (In = ratedcurrent of the current transformer).
The function can be excluded by setting the DIP switches tothe combination indicated by “OFF”.
Adjustable instantaneous short-circuit (I)
Protection function I offers seven tripping thresholds and canbe excluded (“OFF” position of the DIP switches).
Ground fault (G)The inverse short time-delay trip ground fault protection G(which can be excluded) offers seven current thresholds and4 curves indicated by the letters A, B, C, D. Each curve isidentified by the time t4 in relation to current I4 as shown in thediagram on the front of the release (detail 19 on page 38).

Overcurrent protection with SACE PR112microprocessor-based trip units
SACE PR112 trip unitThe SACE PR112 trip unit is a sophisticated protection systemusing microprocessor technology.
The wide range of settings makes this protection unit ideal forgeneral use in any type of installation.
Consulting information and programming is extremely easy us-ing a keyboard and alphanumeric liquid crystal display.
An ammeter function and many additional functions are pro-vided over and above the protection functions.

Operation, protection functions and self-test
All the thresholds and trip curve delays of the protection func-tions are stored in special memories which retain the informa-tion even if no power is supplied.
Protection functionsThe SACE PR112 trip unit offers the following protection func-tions:
• overload (L)
• selective short-circuit (S)
• instantaneous short-circuit (I)
• ground fault (G). (Residual or Source ground return) bymeans of a toroid installed on the earthing connection of themain power supply.
• self-protection against excessive temperature rises.
Neutral adjustment
The external neutral protection is 50% of the value set for thephase protection in the standard version. A version with theneutral protection set to 100% is available on request (for E1,E2 and E3 only).
Power supply
The SACE PR112 trip unit does not normally require any exter-nal power supplies, being self-powered from the current trans-formers (CT). For the protection and ammeter functions to op-erate, at least one phase to have a current load equivalent to35% of the rated current of the CTs (20% in cases where twophases are powered). The unit ensures full operation with self-powering, but by supplying 24 Vdc + 20% auxiliary powersupply the unit can also be used with the circuit-breaker openor with the circuit-breaker closed, but with a single-phase cur-rent load of less than 35% of the rated current of the CTs.
It is also possible to use an auxiliary power supply providedby the PR110/B portable battery unit (always supplied) whichallows the protection functions to be set when the circuit-breaker is not self-powered.
A wide range of setting options is available for the thresholdsand trip times of all the functions.
Functions S and G can operate with a time delay that is inde-pendent of the current (t = k) or with an inverse time delay(constant specific let-through energy: I2t = k), as required.
Protection against ground faults can also be obtained by con-necting the SACE PR112 to an external toroid located on theconductor which connects the transformer star centre to earth(homopolar toroid).

In case of a temporary or continuous malfunction, the follow-ing two signals are activated:
– lighting up of the “µP Fault”
– when there is auxiliary power supply, closure of the “µP Fault”contact.
Test functionsFollowing enabling on the “control” menu, the “TEST”pushbutton on the front of the release (detail 4) allows correctoperation of the chain consisting of the microprocessor, open-ing solenoid and circuit-breaker to be checked.
Within the control menu there is also the possibility of testingcorrect operation of the display, signalling LEDs, magnetic sig-nals and electrical contacts supplied in all the versions of thePR112 trip unit.
By means of the front multi-pin connector (indicated by number13), it is possible to apply a Test unit called SACE PR010/Twhich allows the functions of the SACE PR112 and PR111 tripunits to be tested and checked.
Protection against excessive temperature
The range of SACE PR112 trip units allows the presence ofabnormal temperatures which could cause temporary or con-tinuous malfunctions of the microprocessor to be signalled tothe user.
The user has the following signals or commands available:
– lighting up of the “Warning” LED when the temperature ishigher than 70 °C (temperature at which the microprocessoris still able to operate correctly)
– lighting up of the “Emergency” LED when the temperatureis higher than 85 °C (temperature above which the micro-processor can no longer guarantee correct operation) and,when decided during the unit configuration stage, simulta-neous opening of the circuit-breaker with change-over ofthe relative magnetic signal.
Microprocessor self-diagnosis
The range of SACE PR112 trip units contains an electroniccircuit which checks operation of the microprocessor of theprotection unit in real time.

Overcurrent protection with SACE PR112microprocessor-based trip units
A further two LEDs (9, 10) signal the following:
– “µP Fault”: indicates that the protection unit microprocessorhas a temporary (lit for a limited time) or permanent (lit for anunlimited time) fault
– “Vaux”: indicates there is an auxiliary power supply
Electrical signalling contactsThree clean contacts provided on all versions of the SACEPR112 trip unit enable electrical signalling of the following:
– (5 A / 240 V ac) overload alarm (I1>80%);
– (0.5 A / 125 V ac) relay tripped (closes following tripping ofany of the protection functions - L, S, I, G and excessivetemperature rise);
– microprocessor fault (can be used to directly close the cir-cuit which powers the circuit-breaker shunt opening release).
Note:The overload and microprocessor fault contacts to the microcontroller areavailable with an external auxiliary power supply.
User interfaceFour pushbuttons and an enabling key with two positions(“READ” and “EDIT”) are used to consult the information avail-able and the parameters set in the memory of the SACE PR112(“READ” mode) or to program and configure the unit (“EDIT”mode) - all the choices are made using step-by-step menus.
Indication LEDsTwo LEDs on the front panel of the trip unit are used to indicatepre-alarms (“WARNING”) and alarms (“ALARM”). A messageon the display always explicitly indicates the type of eventconcerned.
Events indicated by the “WARNING” LED:
– unbalance between phases;– pre-alarm for overload (I1> 80%);
– first temperature threshold exceeded (70°C);
– distorted waveform;– zone selectivity enabled and no Vaux;
– contact wear exceeds 80%.
Events indicated by “EMERGENCY” LED:
– overload (I> I1), function L under timing;– function S under timing;
– function G under timing;
– second temperature threshold exceeded (85°C);– contact wear 100%.

Resetting trip signals
The “RESET” pushbutton (detail 7) allows local resetting of theprotection trip signals (relay tripped contact and magneticflags).
Measuring function
The current measuring function (ammeter) is present on allversions of the SACE PR112 unit.
The display shows the currents of the three phases, of the neu-tral and of the earth fault.
The latter current value takes on two different meanings de-pending on whether the external toroidal transformer for the“Source Ground Return” function or the internal transformer(residual type) is connected.
The ammeter can operate either with self-supply or with auxil-iary power supply voltage.
Accuracy of the ammeter measuring chain (current transformerplus ammeter) in the 30% - 120% current is + 5%.

Electrical accessories
1a) Shunt opening/closing release (YO/YC)
Allows remote control opening or closing of the switchgeardepending on the installation position and connection of thereleases in the support. The release can be used for either ofthese uses. Given the characteristics of the circuit-breakeroperating mechanism, opening (with the circuit-breaker closed)is always possible, while closing is only possible when theclosing springs are charged. The release can operate with di-rect current or alternating current.
This release provides instantaneous operation (*), but can bepowered permanently (**).
When used as a permanently powered closing release, it isnecessary to momentarily de-energise the closing release inorder to close the circuit-breaker again after opening (in fact,the circuit-breaker operating mechanism has an anti-pumpingdevice).
(*) The minimum impulse current duration time in instantaneousservice must be 100 ms.
(**) If the opening release is permanently connected to the powersupply, wait at least 30 ms before sending the command to theshunt closing release.
1b) SOR Test UnitThe control/monitoring SOR Test Unit allows continuity of thedifferent versions of SACE Emax series of shunt opening re-leases to be checked.
Under particularly severe operating conditions or simply forremote control of the circuit-breaker, the shunt opening releaseas an accessory for the SACE Emax series of power circuit-breakers is widely used.

Circuit-breaker and fixed part accessories
Maintenance of all functions of this accessory is a necessarycondition to guarantee a high level of safety in the installation.
This bring about the need to have a device available whichcyclically checks correct operation of the release, signallingany malfunctions.
The SACE SOR Test Unit allows continuity of the shunt open-ing release with a rated operating voltage between 24 V and250 V (a.c. and d.c.) to be checked.
Checking of continuity is carried out cyclically with an intervalof 20s between one test and the next.
The unit has visual signals by means of LEDs. The followinginformation in particular is indicated:
••••• POWER ON: power supply present
••••• YO TESTING: version of the test
••••• TEST FAILED: signal following a failed test or lack of auxil-iary power supply
••••• ALARM: signal following three failed tests.
Two relays with one change-over are also available on boardthe unit which allow remote signalling of the following twoevents:
••••• failure of a test - resetting takes place automatically whenthe alarm stops
••••• failure of three tests - resetting only takes place by means ofthe manual RESET from the front of the unit.
There is also a button for manual RESET on the front of theunit.
The main characteristics of the SACE SOR Test Unit are indi-cated below.
Auxiliary power supply 24 V ... 250 V ~
Maximum interrupted current 6 A
Maximum interrupted voltage 250V AC
2a) Undervoltage release (YU)
The undervoltage release opens the circuit-breaker in the eventof a significant drop in the power supply voltage or a powersupply failure. It can be used for remote release (using nor-mally-closed pushbuttons), for a lock on closing or for moni-toring the voltage in the primary and secondary circuits. Thepower supply for the release is therefore branched on the sup-ply side of the circuit-breaker or from an independent source.The circuit-breaker can only be closed with the release pow-ered (the closing lock is obtained mechanically). The releasecan operate both with direct current and alternating current.
Power supply (Un):
24 V – 125-127 V ~
30 V ~ 220-240 V ~
48 V ~ 250 V ~
60 V ~ 380-400 V ~
110-120 V ~ 440-480 V ~
The circuit-breaker is opened with release power supplyvoltages equal to 30-60% Un.The circuit-breaker can be closed with a release power supplyvoltage equal to 85% Un.
Inrush power (Ps): DC = 200 W
AC = 200 VA
Continuous power (Pc) DC = 5 W
AC = 5 VA
Opening time (YU): 30 ms
It can be fitted with a contact for signalling the undervoltagerelease is energised (C.aux YU) (see accessory 5d)Reference figure in circuit diagrams: YU (6)
Note: the use of an undervoltage release is not suitable when a Fail Safedevice is present.

2b) Time-delay device for undervoltage release (D)
The undervoltage release can be combined with an electronictime-delay device for installation outside the circuit-breaker,allowing delayed trip of the release with adjustable preset times.Use of the delayed undervoltage release is recommended toprevent tripping when the power supply network for the re-lease may be subject to brief voltage drops or power supplyfailures. Closing of the circuit-breaker is inhibited when it is notpowered.
The time-delay device is designed to operate in conjunctionwith the undervoltage release with the same voltage as thetime-delay device.
The characteristics of the time-delay device are as follows:
Power supply (D): 24-30 V48 V60 V110-127 V220-250 V
Adjustable openingtime (YU+D): 0.5-1-1.5-2-3 s
Reference figure in circuit diagrams: YU+D (7)
3) Geared motor for automatic charging of closingsprings (M)
Allows automatic charging of the circuit-breaker operatingmechanism closing springs. The geared motor charges theclosing springs again immediately after the circuit-breaker hasclosed.
The closing springs can, however, be charged manually (us-ing the relative operating mechanism lever) in the event of apower supply failure or during maintenance work.

0057 The emergency power supply is usually
installed to take over from the normalpower supply in two cases:
– to power health and safety services(e.g. hospital installations);
– to power parts of installations whichare essential for requirements otherthan safety (e.g. continuous cycle in-dustrial plants).
The range of accessories for SACE Emaxcircuit-breakers includes solutions for awide variety of different plant engineer-ing requirements.
Where devices for protection againstovercurrents and direct and indirect con-tacts and the provisions aiming to im-prove reliability and safety of emergencycircuits are concerned, see the relativestandards.
Switching from the normal to the emer-gency power supply can be carried outmanually (locally or by remote control)or automatically.
To this end, the circuit-breakers used forswitching must be fitted with the acces-sories required to allow electric remotecontrol and provide the electrical andmechanical interlocks required by theswitching logic.
These include:
– the shunt opening release
– the shunt closing release
– the motor operator
– the auxiliary contacts.
The switching function can be auto-mated using a suitable electronically-controlled relay circuit, to be installed bythe customer (circuit diagram suppliedby ABB SACE L.V.).
The mechanical interlocks between twoor three circuit-breakers are created us-ing cables which are suitable both forhorizontally and vertically installed cir-cuit-breakers.

Mechanical interlocks - Cable assembly interlock fitting
Horizontal interlocksHorizontal interlocksHorizontal interlocksHorizontal interlocksHorizontal interlocks
Maximum distance between twointerlocks 1200 mm from oneinterlock to the other. The cablespass under the fixed parts,following the same connectionlayout shown for vertical circuit-breakers.
NotesNotesNotesNotesNotes
When fitting interlocks between two circuit-breakers one has to make suitable holes(through the switchboard) in the mounting sur-face for fixed circuit-breakers or for the fixedpart of withdrawable circuit-breakers in order topass through the flexible cables, respecting themeasurements shown in the figures on page81.For vertical interlocks, align the right-handsides vertically and reduce the bends in theflexible cables to a minimum (radius R. 70 mm).All the angle values of the bends which the cablepasses through added together must not ex-ceed 720°.
Take up the excess cable bymaking it go through one com-plete turn only or an omega asshown in the figure.

IncompatibilityThe circuits shown in the following figures cannot be provided on the same circuit-breaker atthe same time: (2 - 3)
(4 - 5)(6 - 7)(22 - 41 - 42)(31 - 51)(51 - 52)
NotesNotesNotesNotesNotes
A) The circuit-breaker is only fitted with the applications specified in the ABB order acknowl-edgement.
B) The undervoltage release is supplied for operation using a power supply branched on thesupply side of the circuit-breaker or from an independent source. The circuit-breaker canonly close when the release is energized (there is a mechanical lock on closing).If the same power supply is used for the closing and undervoltage releases and one wantsautomatic closing of the circuit-breaker on return of the auxiliary power supply, it is neces-sary to insert a 30 millisecond delay between the undervoltage release accept signal andenergisation of the closing release. This can be obtained using a circuit outside the circuit-breaker which comprises a permanently closed contact, the contact indicated in figure (12)and a time-delay relay.
C) For fixed circuit-breakers with current transformers on the neutral conductors outside thecircuit-breakers, the terminals of transformer TI/N must be short-circuited when one wantsto remove the circuit-breaker.
D) Connect contact S33M/2 shown in Fig. (11), one of the make contacts and one of the breakcontacts of the circuit-breaker shown in Fig. (21) and one of the S75I contacts shown in Fig.(31) or (51) as shown in Fig. (42).On fixed circuit-breakers, connect terminal XV-K14 directly to terminal XV-K16 (contact S75Idoes not exist).
E) See the following documents on how to connect the EIA RS485 serial line:– examples of EIA RS485 serial communication distribution = 401517– prescriptions for laying EIA RS485 serial communication cable = 601823.
F) Auxiliary voltage Uaux. is necessary to guarantee that the following functions of SACEPR112/P releases will operate correctly even without self-supply (primary currents lowerthan 0.35 In):– current measurement– protection against earth fault and relative signals– K51/µp and K51/pL signalsThe presence of a primary current > 0.35 In on at least one phase fitted with current trans-former guarantees the correct operation of all protection and measurement functions.
G) Ground fault protection is available with the PR112/P release by means of a current trans-former located on the conductor connecting the star centre of the MV/LV transformer. Theconnection between terminals 1 and 2 of the TI/O current transformer and poles T5 and T6of connector X must be made with a two-pole shielded and corded ABB SACE L.V. typeT54602 cable with a length not exceeding 5 m. The shield must be grounded on the circuit-breaker side.
