Introduction
Standard Compliance
n UL489: MP08 to MP50 circuit breakers and their accessories are Listed under UL files E63335,
E103955 and E113555

n UL1066/ANSI: MC08 to MC50 circuit breakers are UL Listed according to UL1066 (ANSI C37-13)
under file E161835

n International Standards: the MASTERPACT circuit breaker has been designed to meet all the
major standards including:

IEC 947-2 and related standards such as VDE, BS, EN, etc.
o JEC, JIS
n UL 1008: MP12, MP20 and MP30 circuit breakers are suitable for use in transfer switch
equipment
n Marine Applications:
o Homologated by Bureau Veritas

o
High Short-time Current Rating: Up to 100 kA for 1 sec.

The exceptional short-time rating of 75,000 A in a 3000 A frame and 100,000 A in a 4000 A frame
and above allows the circuit breakers to be fully selective up to their interrupting ratings.
100% Rated
The circuit breakers are designed for continuous operation at 100% of their current rating.
Other Performances
The UL 489 and UL1066 (ANSI C37-13) standard performance tests assure that the circuit breaker
has sufficient characteristics to be used in normal conditions. However, the circuit breaker exceeds,
without additional costs, the UL standard 1,500 operations required in endurance. The heavy-duty
mechanism and the contact design provide a mechanical endurance of 10,000 operations (approx.)
without maintenance (see page 64).
Tropicalization
The standard moisture and fungus protection ensure normal operation under extreme ambient
conditions. MASTERPACT circuit breakers comply with T2 tropicalization (IEC Standard 68-2-30);
relative humidity 95% at 113F (45C) and 80% at 131F (55C) (hot, humid climate). Salt spray
resistance as per IEC 68-2-11.
Poles
The 4-pole version is an efficient solution to ground fault problems created by incorrectly grounded
standby generators and incorrect transfer switching systems. By isolating the neutral of multiple
sources coupled together, 4-pole circuit breakers prevent ground faults from returning to the source
via unintended paths. Where unintended paths exist, ground fault sensing can become inaccurate or
create nuisance tripping.

Advantages
Drawout Circuit Breaker Design
n The drawout assembly mechanism allows the circuit breaker to be racked in four positions
(connected, test, disconnected and withdrawn).

n The closing and opening push buttons, the racking handle and racking mechanism are accessible
06313005
06313004
06313003
through the front door cutout. Therefore the circuit breaker can be disconnected without opening
the door and accessing live parts. Safety shutters can be provided as an option for protection from
live parts when the circuit breaker is removed.
Connected Position
Test Position
Disconnected Position
True Two-step Stored Energy Mechanism

The closing time is less than five cycles. The circuit breaker is operated via a stored-energy
mechanism which can be manually or motor charged. Closing and opening operations can be initiated
either from the local push buttons on the circuit breaker front face or by remote control.
OCO cycle is possible without recharging.
Designed for No Maintenance...

The circuit breaker has fewer parts (by a factor of at least five) than conventional circuit breakers
while performing the same functions. This leads to greatly enhanced reliability and reduction in
maintenance. Under normal operating conditions, according to standards and controlled by tests, the
circuit breaker does not require maintenance.
But Exceeds Standards with an Easy and Reduced Maintenance
06313006
06313007
It is easy to remove the arc chutes and visually inspect the contacts and wear indicator. The operation
counter (spring-charging motor option) can also indicate when inspections and possible maintenance
should be done. After operating conditions exceeding those given by standards, it is possible to
extend the circuit breaker life by:
n Replacement of arc chutes and spring charging motor by the user.
n Replacement of main contacts by an after sale service team.
Note: See pages 6263 for additional information.

Field-installable Accessories
n As the installation develops and changes, the circuit breaker can develop and change with it.
06313009
Most accessories are field-installable, without losing the UL Listing mark, without any adjustment
and with only the aid of a screwdriver.
n The uniform design of the circuit breaker line allows these accessories to be common for the
whole line.
Front Connection of Secondary Circuits
06313010
All accessory terminals are located on a connecting block which is accessible from the front even
with the circuit breaker in the test or disconnected position. This is particularly useful for field
inspection and modification.

11/98
Advantages
Disconnecting through Door
The racking handle and racking mechanism are accessible through the front door cutout.
Disconnecting the circuit breaker will therefore be possible without opening the door and giving
access to live parts.
Isolation Function by Positive Indication of Contact Status

The mechanical indicator is truly representative of the status of all three main contacts.
Segregated Compartment
Once the front cover has been removed to provide access to the auxiliary compartment, the main
contacts remain fully isolated. Furthermore, interphase partitioning allows full insulation between
each pole even if the front cover has been removed.
Reinforced Insulation
06313011
Two insulation barriers separate the front of the circuit breaker from main circuits.

Thermal Memory
push to reset
Purpose
The thermal memory function allows an optimization of cables or bus bar protection in case of low
amplitude repetitive faults. Such faults can be due to repetitive motor startings, fluctuating load or
subsequent closing after a fault.
I1 I2 I3
90%
STR 58 U
50%
Traditional electronic protection has no effect when facing such repetitive faults because the
duration of each overload above the pickup setting is too short to achieve effective tripping.
Nevertheless, each overload involves a temperature rise in the installation, the cumulative effect of
which could lead to overheating of the system.

The thermal memory function remembers and integrates the thermal heating caused by each pickup
setting overrun. Before tripping, the integrated heating value will reduce the associated time delay
and, therefore, the reaction of the control unit will be closer to the real heating of the power network
system. After tripping, the memory will also reduce the time delay when closing the circuit breaker
on fault.

n Before tripping on long-time and ground-fault protection (if provided)
n After tripping on long-time protection only, adjustable min./max. position for the STR 58U trip unit
is standard
The control unit measures the internal temperature rise of the circuit breaker by thermal resistors. The
cooling time constant of the memory is not fixed, but depends on the over-temperature condition.

Zone-selective Interlocking (ZSI)

Option Z on the STR58U control unit provides
selective interlocking on short time or ground
fault. A pilot wire links several trip units in the
distribution network, as shown in the opposite
figure. In the event of a fault, the trip unit will
respond to the preset delay only if receiving a
signal from the downstream unit. If not receiving
a signal, the tripping will be instantaneous.
Therefore, the fault is cleared instantaneously
by the nearest circuit breaker: the thermal
stresses (I2t) in the network are minimized,
without any effect on the correct time-delay
coordination in the installation.
Note: #18 to #14 AWG cables, max. length 90 ft./30m.

In addition to the mechanical fault indicator, this indicator differentiates the three causes of tripping:
overload, short circuit or ground fault, if any. Three light-emitting diodes indicate separately longtime, short-time/ instantaneous and ground-fault trip. A flat push button allows resetting of the
indicator after tripping. A separate power supply is required to maintain the indication after tripping
of the circuit breaker. Two different possibilities are offered:
n Connecting a reliable 24 Vdc control voltage on F1-F2. Auxiliary power module (AD) is used for
other voltages. When the control source is considered as unreliable, a battery pack (BAT) is to
be added to an AD power module.
n From a built-in battery module. When no external control source is available, a built-in battery
module may be ordered (option PIL). This module integrates battery testing and indicator
reactivating buttons.

which operates as follows:
n Fixed when the current exceeds 90% of the current setting.
n Flashing on overload: according to time-current curves, 105% to 120% of current setting.
The pre-trip alarm switch is a static contact which closes when in the overload zone, up to the
tripping of the circuit breaker. This contact can be used for ultimate load shedding, alarm before
tripping, etc.

Sizing of the DIGIPACT Internal Bus
Sizing of the DIGIPACT internal bus depends on two factors:
n The number of devices on the bus
n The length of the bus
Number of Devices
As on any communications network, the number of devices that may be connected on the
DIGIPACT internal bus is limited. The maximum number of devices is calculated in terms of
"communication points." Each type of device represents a number of points indicated in the table
below. The total number of points for the various devices connected to a single bus must not exceed
100. If the required devices represent more than 100 points, simply add a second DIGIPACT
internal bus with a second DC150 data concentrator. The same sizing rules apply to the second bus
as well.

Length of Bus
The table below indicates the cross-sectional area of the cable that must be used depending on the
total length of the bus.

0.06 in.2 (1.5 mm2)
1310 ft. (400 m)
0.1 in.2 (2.5 mm2)
2300 ft. (700 m)
The total resistance of the two wires for the bus must be less than 12 ohms. If the bus is too long,
simply:
n Increase the cross-sectional area of the cable.
n Create two shorter buses for the installation (in this case, a second DC150 data concentrator
is required).

Secondary Disconnects
Electrical accessories are UL Listed for field installation per UL file E113554. They are provided with
terminals and located on secondary disconnecting blocks above the circuit breaker:
n Fixed-mounted: By one or two connecting plugs (provided).
n Drawout-mounted: To terminal block A located in the front of the stationary assembly for easy
access. (This terminal block is then wired to another connection block B that operates
automatically to isolate the internal accessories when the circuit breaker is in the disconnected
position.)

Accessories
The MASTERPACT circuit breaker is equipped with a true two-step stored energy mechanism which
ensures fast opening and closing operations and complete open-close-open sequence without
recharging the mechanism. The MASTERPACT circuit breaker has manual actuators that include a
charging handle and push-to-open and push-to-close buttons. In addition, remote operation is
possible with the following field-installable accessories:
n Spring charging motor (MCH)
n Closing release (XF)
n Undervoltage trip device (MN) or shunt trip (MX) for opening
The manual operating mechanism can still be used in an emergency. The addition of the electrical
operating mechanism does not alter circuit breaker dimensions.
06313047
Spring-charging Motor (MCH)

The spring-charging motor automatically charges the stored energy mechanism (when the circuit
breaker closes) making OCO cycles possible without recharging. Opening and closing operations
are instantaneous.

06313049
Each MASTERPACT circuit breaker can be equipped with:

n One shunt trip (MX) + one undervoltage trip device (MN or MNR)
n Or two shunt trips (MX)
Shunt Trip (MX)

This release is rated for continuous duty and operates with control voltages between 85% and 110%
of its rating. However, when series connected with an "a" auxiliary switch, the shunt trip can be
operated with 55% or more of its rated voltage and can be used for ground-fault protection when
combined with a Class 1 ground-fault sensing element. The shunt trip is field-installable.

Mechanical Interlocks
n Disconnecting When Circuit Breaker Is Closed:
During any disconnecting attempt when the circuit breaker is closed, an interlocking device
ensures the tripping of the circuit breaker before the actual separation of the main disconnects.
The circuit breaker remains, however, operable in the other positions: test, disconnected and
withdrawn.
n Circuit Breaker Closing When Not Completely Connected:
The interlocking device mentioned above prevents closing of the circuit breaker if the connecting
operation is not completely achieved.
n Connecting Circuit Breaker When Door Opened:
VPEC and VPOC options prevent the compartment door from being opened when the circuit
breaker is in the connected position and from connecting the circuit breaker when the door is
open.
Electrical Interlocks
n Priority of Opening Orders (Standard):
06313066
Opening coils (undervoltage trip devices, shunt trip) and opening push button have priority over
the closing coils and closing push button.
n Mechanical Pop-out Type Indicator (Standard):
Under overcurrent or ground-fault conditions, the trip indicator located in the control unit will pop
out. It is not possible to close the circuit breaker until this trip indicator is reset. This standard
function can be disabled upon request.
n Anti-pumping Function (Standard):
In case the closing coil (XF) becomes permanently energized, the circuit breaker remains in the
open position A after it has been opened, either by manual or electrical operation. The circuit
breaker can be closed only if the closing coil is momentarily de-energized B.
Note: This anti-pumping function can be disabled by series connecting a "ready to close" (NC
contact) switch (PF) with the closing coil (XF).

CAUTION
HAZARD OF EQUIPMENT DAMAGE.
This switch contains no overcurrent protection.
It is suitable for use at its ampere rating when
protected by a MASTERPACT circuit breaker
of the same ampere rating.
Failure to observe this precaution can
cause equipment damage.
Construction
The MASTERPACT switch is identical to the MP circuit breaker, except that the switch is not
equipped with current transformers or an actual control unit. However, it does have an STR08
dummy unit.
Accessories, Dimensions and Connections

Switch accessories, dimensions and connections are identical to those of the corresponding circuit
breaker, except that the overcurrent trip switch is not available with the switch version.

The DC150 concentrator is connected using a SUBD9 male connector with a metal hood (e.g., ITT
canon, DE9P K83 + hood or DE115-500-5-RD). The DC150 concentrator is equipped with a SUBD9
female connector. For a multidrop configuration, the tap-offs can be made either via a branching off
of RS485 connector Catalog No. 50788 or standard connection boxes, taking care to respect the
necessary precautions when connecting the shieldings. The adaptation of an RS232 output on a
personal computer to accept the RS485 standard connector should be done with the RS485/RS232
converter Catalog No. 50786.

Routine Maintenance Guidelines
DANGER
HAZARD OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK, BURN
OR EXPLOSION.
Turn OFF all power supplying the equipment
before installing or removing circuit breaker.
Failure to observe these precautions will
cause death, personal injury or electrical
shock.
CAUTION
HAZARD OF EQUIPMENT DAMAGE.
Since circuit breakers contain factory-sealed
and calibrated elements. Do not break seal. In
case of malfunction, repairs must be made at
a Square D factory or by an authorized
company representative.
Failure to observe this precaution can
cause equipment damage.
Recommended Inspection Intervals

MASTERPACT circuit breakers are designed to be maintenance free (see page 64). However, all
equipment with moving parts requires periodic inspection to ensure optimum performance and
reliability. It is recommended that the circuit breakers be routinely inspected six months after
installation, followed by an annual inspection. Intervals can vary depending on particular use and
experience.
Inspection of Circuit Breaker Terminals
n Inspect terminals; if there is discoloration due to overheating, the joint should be disassembled
and the surface cleaned before reinstallation. It is essential that electrical connections are made
carefully in order to prevent overheating.
n Check for terminal tightness.
Inspection of Main Contacts
The arc chutes are easily removed to allow access to the main contacts and to the wear indicator.
The wear indicator consists of a groove located within the contacts support (see page 3). When the
circuit breaker is closed, this groove is entirely covered up by the moving contacts. Over time, the
wear of the contacts will make the groove appear. When the groove is fully visible, replace the
breaker or have an authorized service center change the contacts.
Inspection of Clusters
Totally maintenance free, they have to be replaced only after overheating due to a defective
connection or after a major fault. Inspection is advised when checking the terminal connections.
Cleaning
Remove any dust and dirt that may have accumulated on the circuit breaker surface and terminals.
Mechanical Checks
For long periods circuit breakers may not be required to operate on overload or short-circuit
conditions. Therefore it is essential to operate the circuit breaker periodically to avoid mechanical
gumming.
62
11/98
Appendix
Insulation Resistance Tests

When circuit breakers are subjected to severe operating conditions, an insulation resistance test
may be performed as indicated in NEMA standard publication No. AB4-1991. An insulation
resistance test is used to determine the quality of the insulation between phases and phase-toground. The resistance test is made at a dc voltage higher than the rated voltage to determine the
actual resistance of the insulation. The most common method employs a "megger" type instrument.
A 1000-volt instrument will provide a more reliable test because it is capable of detecting tracking on
insulated surfaces. Investigate resistance values below 1 megohm. The insulation test shall be
made:
n Between line and load terminals of individual poles with the circuit breaker contacts open
n Between adjacent poles and from poles to the metallic supporting structure with the circuit
breaker contacts closed
This test may be made with the circuit breaker in place after the line and load conductors have been
removed, or with the circuit breaker bolted to a metallic base which simulates the in-service
mounting.
Electrical Tests
These tests require equipment for pole resistance measurement and for overcurrent and
instantaneous tripping in accordance with NEMA Standard publication No. AB4. They are not within
the scope of normal field operation.

Important Notice:
All endurances given are based on normal operating conditions and conventional tests:
n Closing and opening operations at rated current
n Power factor: 0.750.80
As actual conditions differ, use these values only as inspection guidelines and periodically check
contact wear.
Under normal operating conditions of use, as determined by UL 489 or ANSI Standards (see table
C) and controlled by tests, MASTERPACT circuit breakers do not require maintenance. However,
these circuit breakers exceed, without maintenance and additional costs, the endurances required
by standards. See tables A and C. Service maintenance by a field service representative will extend
the endurance according to table B. This service can be performed on site and consists in changing
contacts, arc chutes and some other parts.
Example:
MP16 at 480 V requires no maintenance before 10,000 cycles (mechanical or electrical). Endurance
may be increased after servicing at 10,000 operations.
