The
Electronic

is
a
microprocessor
controlled
multi

overcurrent
protective
device
for
application
with
Siemens
state
-
of
-
the
-
art
family
of
Type
SB
Systems
Breakers
.
The
adjustment
flexibility
provided
by
the
Elec

Trip
Unit
allows
the
user
to
easily
accommodate
load
changes
and
other
protective
requirements
while
still
assuring
optimum
coordination
.
In
addition
to
the
adjust
-
ment
protection
functions
,
the
trip
unit
is
designed
to
use
field
interchangeable
rating
plugs
.
These
rating
plugs
allow
the
ampere

of
the
circuit
breaker
to
be
chang

ed
to
meet
specific
applications
.
For
ease
of
installation
and
interchangeability
in
the
field
,
the
trip
unit
has
been
designed
as
a
plug
-
in
unit
to
mount
directly
into
a
Type
SB
Breaker
frame
.
Current
sensors
within
the
Type
SB
Breaker
provide
signal
currents
and
operating
power
for
the
trip
unit
.
Therefore
,
when
the
circuit
breaker
is
closed
,
the
trip
unit
requires
no
external
connections
or
control
power
to
perform
its
protection
functions

Principles
of
Operation
The
microprocessor
reads
the
temporarily
stored
digital
voltages
and
compares
their
values
with
the
set
of
perma
-
nently
stored
values
that
correspond
to
the
user
-
selected
adjustment
settings
.
When
an
overcurrent
condition
is
detected
,
the
microprocessor
’
s
software
begins
to
process
the
appropriate
protection
function
.
During
the
processing
of
the
protection
function
,
the
microprocessor
continues
to
monitor
the
incoming
current
level
data
.
If
the
overcurrent
condition
continues
until
the
processing
is
completed
and
the
appropriate
delay
time
has
elapsed
,
a
tripping
com
-
mand
is
issued
by
the
microprocessor
.
The
tripping
command
from
the
microprocessor
causes
a
signal
to
be
sent
from
the
Electronic
Trip
Unit
to
the
low
energy
high
speed
magnetic
latch
in
the
circuit
breaker
.
The
signal
in
the
trip
unit
counteracts
the
permanent
magnet
in
the
latch
,
allowing
the
latch
to
trip
the
breaker
.
Principles
of
Operation
The
Electronic
Trip
Unit
uses
a
microprocessor
to
execute
the
numerous
numeric
and
logic
functions
programmed
in
the
unit
.
The
adjustments
on
the
trip
unit
face
allow
the
user
to
select
what
numerical
values
are
to
be
used
by
the
microprocessor
in
performing
its
protection
function
.
(
The
numerical
values
are
stored
in
the
processor
’
s
permanent
memory
.
)
Current
data
is
derived
from
current
sensors
mounted
in
the
Siemens
Type
SB
Breaker
.
These
sensors
are
current
transformers
.
As
passive
devices
,
they
provide
high
reli
-
ability
with
minimum
signal
error
while
providing
power
for
the
trip
unit
.
The
current
signals
from
the
transformers
are
converted
to
digital
voltages
in
the
trip
unit
.
These
digital
voltages
are
stored
in
temporary
memory
.
The
digital
signals
are
used
by
the
microprocessor
in
detecting
and
processing
overcurrent
conditions
.
