PowerPact H-, J-, and L-Frame Circuit Breakers Motor Circuit Protection 2 Electronic Motor Circuit Protectors (AC Only) PowerPact H- and J-trame Electronic Motor Circuit Protectors (MCP) are instantaneous-tip circuit breakers. They are designed to offer shor circuit protection and are National Electrical Code (NEC®) compliant when installed as part of a combination controller having motor overload protection. MCP circuit breakers accept the same accessories and terminals as the equivalent thermal-magnetic circuit breakers. (See Section 3 for Accessories.) “The unique design of the PowerPact MCPs includes two rotary switches to allow quick setting adjustments based on the characteristics of the motor. “The first rotary switch allows for Full Load Ampores (FLA) adjustment across the range ofthe frame size. ‘The second rotary switch selects the type of motor protection based on Automatic 1 for Standard Efficieney or Automatic 2 for High Energy Erficient. When using the automatic settings the MCP microprocessor automatically adjusts the trp settings for both current and time to align with the star-up characteristic for the motor type, whether itis a standard or energy-efficient motor. Ths includes a dampening means to accommodate a transient moter in-rush current without nuisance tripping of the circult breaker. Rotary switch 2 also allows for traditional motor protection from 8 to 13 times the selected FLA. ‘The MCP rotary switches are detented and allow the device to be set to specific tip values within a typical accuracy range of +/-5%.

Determine the motors ful-load current by referring to the nameplate on the motor. 2. Sot the trip range by turning the FLA rotary switch tothe setting closest to the motor's fll load current.
