MICROLOGIC Trip Units

Making Circuit Breakers Smarter

The brains behind the new Square D line of low voltage MASTERPACT Power Circuit Breakers and POWER-ZONE 4 Switchgear is a new family of MICROLOGIC Trip Units. These interchangeable, microprocessorcontrolled, plug-in devices provide the next generation of protection, measurement and control functions, delivering not only greater electrical system safety but also improved system integration and coordination.

A Wide Range of Trip Unit Options

The upgraded MICROLOGIC Trip Unit family includes four models, with varying levels of functionality. The simplest units provide basic overcurrent protection including long-time and instantaneous adjustments for overloads and short circuits. More advanced units offer more sophisticated functions such as short-time and groundfault protection also allowing for zone selective interlocking with down-stream circuit breakers. They also incorporate a variety of communications options and POWERLOGIC Power Metering and monitoring capabilities right inside the circuit breaker. With the more advanced trip units, you can use a network to communicate with breakers, gather power information and energy usage patterns, monitor events and remotely control breakers for increased efficiency and savings. The breakers become part of an integrated, coordinated electrical system.

Upgrading Is Easy The new MICROLOGIC trip units make adding functionality, literally, a snap. They plug directly into MASTERPACT NW Power Circuit Breakers and can be installed quickly and easily on site (Refer to installation instructions for more details on installation). We also made the units completely interchangeable for added flexibility, to reduce your spare parts inventory and to protect against breaker obsolescence.
