Short Circuit Selective Coordination for Low Voltage Circuit

Breakers
Retain for future use.
INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this data bulletin is to present short circuit selective

coordination data for various combinations of Square D low voltage circuit
breakers.
The scope of this data bulletin encompasses only breaker-to-breaker
short circuit selective coordination. Coordination between circuit breakers in
the overload region of their time-current curves, coordination with fuses and
the protection of motors, transformers and other devices, as well as
coordinated ground fault protection, is not dicussed. Conventional selective
coordination studies using time-current curves are still required to address
these issues. See the REFERENCE section, on page 5, for other data
bulletins on this subject.
This data bulletin is a companion to Enhancing Short Circuit Selective
Coordination with Low Voltage Circuit Breakers, document number
0100DB0403.

SELECTIVE COORDINATION
DATA
System designers are accustomed to determining the level of short circuit

selective coordination between combinations of low voltage circuit breakers
using trip curves. But using trip curves alone sometimes leads to the
determination of a selective coordination level that is lower than can actually
be achieved.
How Trip Curves Are Developed
Circuit breaker trip curves are typically developed by conducting interruption

tests at various levels of overload and short circuit current. The time
necessary for the circuit breaker to completely interrupt the current flow is
then measured. In the instantaneous region of the trip curve, it is often
assumed that the fault clearing time is constant, hence the curve is usually a
straight line in that region.
Current Limiting Circuit Breakers
Many modern circuit breakers are designed with blow-open contacts and /
or other features to quickly clear high fault currents, resulting in clearing
times that decrease as the current increases, unlike what the conservatively
drawn trip curves may indicate. Even circuit breakers not UL listed or
CSA certified as current limiting may exhibit current limiting characteristics.
Dynamic Characteristics of Circuit

Breakers
All circuit breakers, when they begin to open, serve to limit the prospective
flow of current, even if they are not listed or certified as current limiting. This
is an important factor to consider when two circuit breakers are connected in

series, especially if the downstream circuit breaker opens faster than the
upstream circuit breaker.
Impact on Selective Coordination
In the case of two circuit breakers connected in series, if the downstream

circuit breaker opens faster than the upstream circuit breaker, the
downstream circuit breaker may limit the flow of current below the point at
which the upstream circuit breaker will trip. The result may be a level of
selective coordination higher than might be determined by comparing the
trip curves of the two circuit breakers.
Actual Levels of Selective Coordination
The levels of selective coordination presented in this data bulletin were

determined based on the actual performance of Square D low voltage
circuit breakers. They were determined by comparing the current let-through
of the downstream breaker with the minimum instantaneous trip
characteristic of the upstream breaker, taking into account manufacturing
tolerances. Thus the maximum level of selective coordination was
determined for various pairings of upstream and downstream circuit
breakers.
SELECTIVE COORDINATION AND

SERIES RATINGS
It has been assumed by many that in all cases the upstream circuit breaker
will trip when two circuit breakers are connected in a series rated
combination. But this is not always the case.
Equipment Impedance
Sometimes the impedance of the equipment in which the circuit breakers

are installed, including the added impedance of the upstream circuit
breaker, is sufficient to limit the current to a point where the downstream
circuit breaker is able to interrupt the fault current by itself, without causing
the upstream circuit breaker to trip.
Downstream Circuit Breaker

Construction
Sometimes a circuit breaker manufacturer, for various reasons, may offer a

range of interrupting ratings for a given circuit breaker frame using a single
construction. For example, a circuit breaker frame might be available with
18 and 35 kA interrupting ratings, but both might actually be built with a
35 kA construction. In such an instance the 18 kA rated breaker might be
offered with a 35 kA series rating, which the circuit breaker would be
capable of interrupting on its own without the assistance of an upstream
breaker. Thus the pair might have a level of selective coordination higher
than anticipated.
ASSUMPTIONS
A few assumptions have been made in the compilation of this data.
Circuit Breaker Contact Position
It is assumed that all circuit breakers in the system, with the possible
exception of the branch breaker nearest to the fault, are in the closed (ON)
position when the fault occurs. Some circuit breakers, notably insulated
case and low voltage power circuit breakers, may incorporate a making
current release (MCR) trip function set slightly below the circuit breaker's
close and latch rating. The MCR trip level may be below that of the
adjustable instantaneous or instantaneous selective override trip functions.
Instantaneous Trip Setting
In order to maximize selective coordination, it is assumed that the

instantaneous trip setting on all upstream circuit breakers in the system, if
adjustable, will be set to the highest position. It is also assumed that if the
instantaneous trip function on upstream electronic trip circuit breakers can
be turned off, then it will be turned off.
Turning off the instantaneous trip function does not mean that the circuit
breaker loses its ability to protect against short circuits. Square D

electronic trip circuit breakers that have an OFF position on the

instantaneous switch are also equipped with a short time pick-up and delay
function, and may also be equipped with an instantaneous selective
override function if necessary for the proper functioning of the circuit
breaker.
The adjustment of trip settings does not affect any series rating that may be
employed as UL and CSA require series ratings tests to be conducted
with the instantaneous trip adjustment set to its highest position.
HOW TO USE THE TABLES
In order to use the data presented here, some basic information is needed.
System One-line Diagram
A one-line diagram of the system to be studied is absolutely necessary in

order to determine the level of system coordination.
System Voltage
While the system voltage, in and of itself, has no impact on selective

coordination, it does impact circuit breaker selection, which in turn impacts
coordination; thus the system voltage needs to be known.
Circuit Ampacity
The instantaneous trip characteristics of a circuit breaker may be a function

of the frame or current sensor rating rather than the current rating of the
circuit breaker. However, the current rating required to meet the ampacity of
the circuit drives the circuit breaker selection, thus it needs to be known.
(See NEC Articles 210, 215, 220, 225 and 230.)
Available Short Circuit Current
The available short circuit current at each point in the system should be
determined in order to select circuit breakers with the proper interrupting
rating and in turn to determine the level of selective coordination.
Determining Levels of Selective

Coordination
Based on this information, determine the level of selective coordination

between pairs of circuit breakers in the system by finding them in the tables
presented in APPENDIX A on page 6, APPENDIX B on page 38 and
APPENDIX C on page 41. The intersection of the upstream and
downstream circuit breakers in the tables lists the level of selective
coordination between that pair of circuit breakers.
Example
Let's consider a 480Y / 277 Vac system with 35 kA available short circuit
current. Assume that the system consists of an NF 250 A main lugs lighting
panelboard with single pole EG 35 kAIR rated circuit breakers fed from a
JGA36250 circuit breaker with a 35 kA interrupting rating located in an
I-Line power panelboard. Determine the level of selective coordination
between the upstream JGA circuit breaker and downstream EG circuit
breakers by following these steps.
1. Find the 480 Vac table listing EG downstream circuit breakers in
APPENDIX A, Table 6: on page 20.
2. Find the column for the EG downstream circuit breaker to be studied.
3. Go down the column until the row listing the 250 A JG upstream circuit
breaker is found.
4. Read the selective coordination level at the intersection of the column
and row, namely 2.4 kA. This means that the JG upstream circuit
breaker is selectively coordinated with downstream EG circuit breakers
up to 2,400 amps.
OPTIMIZING THE SELECTIVE

COORDINATION LEVEL
The selective coordination of a circuit breaker based low voltage system can
be optimized using the techniques presented in the Enhancing Short
Circuit Selective Coordination with Low Voltage Circuit Breakers data

Data Bulletin
0100DB0501R3/06

bulletin and the data presented in APPENDIX A on page 6, and

APPENDIX C on page 41. The following is a brief summary of the
techniques more fully presented in the Enhancing Short Circuit Selective
Coordination with Low Voltage Circuit Breakers data bulletin.
Conduct A Short Circuit Study
Conducting a short circuit study may reveal that lower interrupting rated
downstream circuit breakers can be selected, possibly resulting in higher
withstand ratings.
Increase Frame Size
By increasing the frame size of the upstream circuit breaker, it may be

possible to increase the selective coordination at that level in the system.
Change Circuit Breaker Type
By changing the upstream circuit breaker from a molded case to an

insulated case circuit breaker, it may be possible to increase the selective
coordination at that level in the system.
Using the Tables
If the level of selective coordination between the two circuit breakers initially
selected is not sufficient for the application, the tables may be used to find
an alternate upstream circuit breaker selection that will yield a higher level
of selective coordination. This may involve a larger frame size or different
type of circuit breaker, as mentioned above. This may be done by going
down the tables to find possible upstream breakers that may deliver a
higher level of selective coordination.
Example
Using the same example previously stated under Determining Levels of

Selective Coordination, determine if a higher level of selective
coordination can be achieved by following these steps:
1. Move down the column for the EG downstream circuit breaker to be
studied, looking for upstream breakers that will yield a higher level of
selective coordination.
2. When the desired level of selective coordination is found, read across
the row to find the upstream breaker that will yield this level. In this case,
a PG circuit breaker will yield a level of selective coordination of 35,000
amps. This means that the upstream PG circuit breaker is fully selective
with downstream EG circuit breakers.
CONCLUSION
The actual level of selective coordination between pairs of Square D low

voltage circuit breakers needs to be considered when designing a
selectively coordinated low voltage electrical system. This may be done by
finding the pair of circuit breakers in the tables presented in this data bulletin
and reading the actual level of selective coordination.
If the level of selective coordination is not sufficient for the application, an
alternate upstream circuit breaker yielding a higher level of selective
coordination may be found by reading down the table. The alternate may be
an electronic trip circuit breaker whose instantaneous trip function can be
turned OFF, a larger frame size circuit breaker or a different type of circuit
breaker.
A short circuit study to determine the level of short circuit current available at
various points in the system may allow the selection of circuit breakers with
a lower interrupting rating and a higher instantaneous trip level.
The data bulletin Enhancing Short Circuit Selective Coordination with
Low Voltage Circuit Breakers, document number 0100DB0403, should be
consulted for a further explanation of optimizing techniques for enhancing
the level of short circuit selective coordination.

Finally, do not neglect to properly adjust circuit breakers in the field as all
Square D low voltage circuit breakers are shipped from the factory with all
but the ampere-rating switch in the lowest position.

Table 1:
The data in the following tables for UL 489 Listed molded and insulated
case circuit breakers also applies to CSA C22.2 #5-02 and ANCE NMX
J-266 Certified circuit breakers. All data is at 60 Hz. The data does not apply
to circuit breakers that are Certified to IEC 60947-2 only or at frequencies
other than 60 Hz.
Fully rated and series rated pairs of circuit breakers where there is a
reasonable expectation of selective coordination are shown. Pairings of the
same frame size or where the upstream circuit breaker might be a current
limiting circuit breaker are not shown as such pairings would not be
expected to selectively coordinate.
Gray shaded cells in the tables indicate series rated combinations. It should
be noted that series ratings vary by equipment type, thus published
information regarding the specific type of Square D equipment being
studied should be consulted for the actual series ratings available in that
equipment.
Based on laboratory testing, Square D certifies the following levels of
selective coordination based upon the construction of the specific circuit
breakers referenced as of the date of publication of this document.
