carrying

.
These
signals
develop
analog
voltages
across
the
appropriate
sensing
resistors

or
Neutral

(
when

)
Phase
Voltages
The
resulting
analog
voltages
are
digitized
by
the
custom
designed
integrated
circuits
.
The
micro
-
computer
,
in
cyclic
fashion
,
repeatedly
scans
the
voltage
values
across
each
sensing
resistor
and
enters
these
values
into
its
Random
Access
Memory
(
RAM
)
.
These
data
are
used
to
calculate
true
RMS
current
values
,
which
are
then
repeatedly
compared
with
the
protection
function
settings
and
other
operating
data
stored
in
the
memory
.
The
soft
-
ware
program
then
determines
whether
to
initiate

-
tion
functions
,
including
tripping
the
breaker
through
the
low

The

Digitrip

provides
true
RMS
current
sensing
for
proper
correlation
with
thermal
characteristics
of
conduc
-
tors
and
equipment
.
Interchangeable
rating
plugs
are
provided
to
establish
the
continuous
current
rating
of
each
circuit
breaker
.
The
Digitrip
RMS
910
Trip
Unit
is
designed
for
use
in
industrial
circuit
breaker
environ
-
ments
where
the
ambient
temperatures
can
range
from
-
20
C
to
+
85
C
and
rarely
exceed
70
to
75
C
.
If
,
however
,
temperatures
in
the
neighborhood
of
the
Trip
Unit
do
exceed
this
range
,
the
Trip
Unit
performance
may
be
degraded
.
In
order
to
insure
that
the
tripping
function
is
not
compromised
due
to
an
over
-
temperature
condition
,
the
Digitrip
RMS
910
microcomputer
chip
has
a
built
-
in
over
-
temperature
protection
feature
,
factory
set
to
trip
the
breaker
if
the
chip
temperature
exceeds
95
C
.
If
over
-
temperature
is
the
reason
for
the
trip
,
the
Long
Delay
Time
LED
will
light
“
RED
"
,
and
the
word
“
TEMP
”
will
appear
in
the
display
window
.
The
Trip
Unit
employs
the
Cutler
-
Hammer
Inc
.
custom
designed
integrated
circuit
SpRE
+
chip
,
which
includes
a
micro
-
computer
to
perform
its
numeric
and
logic
functions
.
The
principle
of
operation
is
described
by
the
block
diagram
shown
in
Fig
.
2
.
In
the
Digitrip
RMS
910
Trip
Unit
,
all
required
sensing
and
tripping
power
to
operate
its
protection
function
is
derived
from
the
current
sensors
in
the
circuit
breaker
.
The
secondary
currents
from
these
sensors
provide
the
correct
input
information
for
the
protector
functions
,
as
well
as
tripping
power
,
whenever
the
circuit
breaker

where
the

is
lighted
“

,
the
external

power
to
the
Power

(
see
Section

)
will
maintain
the
LED
“

and
will
continue
to
send
a
TRIP

until
the
Trip

two
ways
:
•
either

General
Over

Current
Protection
The
Digitrip
RMS
910
Trip
Unit
is
completely
self
-
con
-
tained
and
when
the
circuit
breaker
is
closed
,
requires
no
external
control
power
to
operate
its
protection
sys
-
tems
.
It
operates
from
current
signal
levels
and
control
power
derived
through
current
sensors
integrally
mounted
in
the
circuit breaker
.
The
Digitrip
RMS
910
Trip
Unit
is
available
in
six
different
types
.
Each
Trip
Unit
may
be
equipped
with
a
maximum
of
five
phase

that
only
a

For
specific
instructions
see
the
applicable
connection
diagrams
for
your
breaker
listed
in
Section

.
Note
:
If
a
breaker
(
M
)
receives
a
Zone

signal
from
another

)
that
is

,
but

,
the
presence
of
the
Zone
Interlocking
signal
from
the
other
breaker
(
F
)
can
not
cause
breaker
(
M
)
to

.
If

would
close
onto
a
high
short
-
circuit
current
,
when
the

is
inactive
,
type

will
rely
on
the
short

function
before
tripping
.
If
the
fault
current
exceeds
the
short

current
capability
of
the

breaker
,
the
OverRIDe
protection
function
will
trip
the

.
(
See
Section

)
Also
,
please
see
Section

for
other
exceptions
when

employed
.
The

be
made
inactive
by
turning

.
Zone
Selective
Interlocking
provides
the
fastest
possible
tripping
for
faults
within
the
breaker
’
s
zone
of
protection
,
and
yet
also
provides
positive
coordination
among
all
breakers
in
the
system
(
mains
,
ties
,
feeders
and
downstream
breakers
)
to
limit
the

to
the

part
of
the
system
only
.
When
Zone
Interlocking
is
enabled
,
a
fault
within
the
breaker
’
s
zone
of
protection
will
cause
the
Trip
Unit
to
:
•
Trip
the
affected
breaker
instantaneously
,
and
•
Send
a
signal
to
upstream
RMS
Digitrip
Trip
Units
to
restrain
from
tripping
immediately
.
The
restraining
signal
causes
the
upstream
breakers
to
follow
their
set
coordination
times
,
so
that
only
the
minimum

-
vice
is
disrupted
,

is
cleared
in

possible

,
the

For
this
reason
,
the

the
case
of

Harmonics
[
THD
]
The
Digitrip
RMS
910
provides
capabilities
to
calculate
and
display
the
THD
(
total
Harmonic
Distortion
)
for
phase
currents
[
la
]
,
[
lb
]
and
[
lc
]
.
The
term
THD
is
used
to
define
in
percentage
of
the
power
frequency
current
,
the
amount
of
harmonic
current
that
the
breaker
is
seeing
or
the
sys
-
tem
is
experiencing
.
This
can
be
useful
in
troubleshooting
to
detect
individual
breaker
current
loads
that
could
lead
to
system
problems
and
early
equipment
failure
.
The
equation
used
for
calculating
is
:
l
2
rms
-
if
THD
=
x
100
%
If
where
Irms
is
the
rms
current
of
the
waveform
and
^
is
the
rms
current
of
the
fundamental
frequency
For
example
the
THD
calculation
for
a
load
having
an
equal
rms
value
of
fundamental
and
third
harmonic
cur
-
rent
would
have
a
THD
value
of
100
percent
.
This
would
be
a
large
value
THD
and
would
not
be
typical
.
Besides
individually
displaying
the
THD
for
lA
,
lB
and
lc
,
the
Digitrip
910
will
also
display
the
individual
harmonic
currents
up
to
the
27
th
harmonic
for
lA
,
lB
and
lc
.
The
local
operation
on
the
Digitrip
to
observe
this
data
is
done
using
the
“
Step
”
push
-
button
on
the
front
panel
of
the
Digitrip
.

,
Sensor
Rating
(
where
applicable
)
and
Rating
Plugs
The
Frame
Rating
of
a
circuit
breaker
is
the
maximum
RMS
current
it
can
carry
continuously
.
The
maximum
Short
-
Circuit
Current
Ratings
of
the
circuit
breaker
are
usually
related
to
the
Frame
Rating
as
well
.
It
is
often
times
desirable
to
be
able
to
choose
a
current
value
(
ln
)
,
less
than
the
full
frame
rating
,
to
be
the
basis
for
the
circuit
breaker
’
s
protection
functions
,
without
affecting
its
short
-
circuit
current
capability
.
For
the
Digitrip
RMS
910
Trip
Unit
the
maximum
continuous
current
(
ln
)
is
set
by
the
Rating
Plug
(
and
/
or

,
where
applicable
)
-
see
Section
6
for
specific
instructions
for
your

The
(

Sensor

(
where

)
is
the

After

the

,
press
and
release
the
‘

"
push

button
to
turn
off
any
illuminated

.
The
purpose
of
the
rating
plug
is
to
set
the
value
of
ln
,
the
basis
for
the
Trip
Unit
protection
function
current
settings
.
(
See
Section
3
for
details
.
)
Each
circuit
breaker
frame
rating
represents
the
maximum
current
it
can
carry
continuously
.
However
for
proper
coordination
of
over
-
current
protection
,
it
is
often
desirable
to
choose
dif
-
ferent
levels
of
ln
for
different
circuit
breakers
of
the
same
frame
rating
.
An
assortment
of
rating
plugs
with
different
ln
values
is
available
for
each
breaker
frame
rating
(
See
circuit
breaker
instruction
leaflet
supplements
listed
in
Section
6
)
to
give
the
user
flexibility
to
change
the
value
of
ln
without
having
to
change
the
primary
current
sen
-
sors
on
the
breaker
.
By
changing
the
rating
plug
,
the
user
can
easily
change
the
range
of
current
protection
settings
without
having
to
remove
the
circuit
breaker
from
its
enclosure
.
For
example
,
if
one
expects
a
circuit
to
carry
600
A
ini
-
tially
,
but
then
increase
to
1400
A
in
the
future
,
one
could
initially
install
1600
A
cables
and
a
1600
A
breaker
frame
with
the
Trip
Unit
rating
plug
whose
ln
=
800
A
.
Then
later
on
when
the
additional
load
is
ready
to
come
on
line
,
the
rating
plug
could
be
exchanged
for
one
with

,
is
an
encapsulated
power
supply
that
requires
a
120

input
at
either
50

.
It
provides
an
output
of

)
which
is
used
during
testing
of

Prior

,
each
Trip

must
be
set
to
the
values
specified
by
the
person
responsible
for
the
installation
.
The
number
of

that
must
be
made
is
determined
by
the
pro

tection
supplied
as
illustrated
in
Figs
.
8.1

.
Each
setting
is
made
with
a

The
selected
setting
for
each

Note
:
In
addition
to
the
standard
Ground

-
tection
,
the
Digitrip
RMS
910
Trip
Unit
also
has
a
GROUND
TIME
MEMORY
(
GTM
)
function
,
which
serves
to
protect
loads
in
the
event
of
a
sputtering
arc
to
ground
.
Without
the
GTM
function
,
the
Trip
Unit
would
normally
reset
each
time
the
arc
sput
-
tered
,
and
begin
to
time
-
out
all
over
again
,
so
that
a
sputtering
fault
may
not
have
been
detected
.
But
with
the
GTM
function
,
the
Trip
Unit
“
remembers
”
the
sputtering
ground
current
for
up
to
five
(
5
)
times
the
Ground
Fault
Time
Setting
.
After
that
time
,
it
does
reset

.
The
GTM
function
does
reset
rather
quickly
;
on

it
