b e marking
EZ101PR-28
All EasyPact circuit breakers are suitable for isolation as defined in IEC standard
60947-2:
b the isolation position corresponds to the O (OFF) position
b the operating handle cannot indicate the O (OFF) position (“green colour” visible)
unless the contacts are effectively open
b padlocks may not be installed unless the contacts are open
b installation of a rotary handle does not alter the reliability of the position-indication
system.
The isolation function is certified by tests guaranteeing:
b the mechanical reliability of the position indication system
b the absence of leakage currents
b overvoltage withstand capacity between upstream and downstream connections.
Environmental protection
EasyPact circuit breakers take into account important concerns for environmental
protection. Most components are recyclable and the parts are marked as specified
in applicable standards.

Ambient temperature
b EasyPact circuit breakers has been particularly designed to hold 100 % In at 50°C
without tripping in normal condition (except for earth-leakage circuit breakers).
b EasyPact circuit breakers may be used between -25 °C and +70 °C.
b The permissible storage-temperature range for EasyPact circuit breakers in the
original packing is -35 °C to +85 °C.
Installation
DB106003
EasyPact circuit breakers are designed for easy installation in the various types of
switchboards. They may be mounted vertically, horizontally or flat on their back
without any derating of characteristics.
Installation positions.
Power supply
DB106037
EasyPact circuit breaker can be supplied from either the top or the bottom (reverse
feeding) without any reduction in performance. For earth-leakage circuit breakers,
reverse feeding is possible only up to 240 V AC.
This capability facilitates connection when installed in a switchboard.
Degree of protection
As per standards IEC 60529 (IP degree of protection) and EN 50102
Reverse feeding. (IK degree of protection against external mechanical impacts).
DB106035
Circuit breakers General characteristics (cont.) 0
Earth-leakage protection
EasyPact circuit breakers have a specific version including earth-leakage protection.
PB101851-37
This protection is fully integrated inside the breaker and does not require any
additional space.
EasyPact circuit breakers and earth-leakage circuit breakers are fully
interchangeable.
Power supply
DB112379
Reverse feeding
EasyPact earth-leakage circuit breakers can be supplied from either the top or the
bottom for voltages up to 300 V AC. For voltages over 300 V AC, only supply from
the top is possible (Line-Load indication on the cover of the breaker).
Power supply of the electronics
EasyPact earth-leakage circuit breakers are self-supplied by the distribution-system
voltage and therefore do not require any external source. They fully comply with new
IEC requirements (Annex B): they are powered from the three phases and continue
to function even if one phase is missing.
Dielectric tests
EasyPact earth-leakage circuit breakers are equipped with a disconnecting switch in
order to protect the electronics during dielectric tests.
When the disconnecting switch is activated, the circuit breaker is automatically
tripped. It is mechanically impossible to switch on the circuit breaker, until the earth-
leakage function is re-energised.
Tripping features
Tripping indications:
b EasyPact earth-leakage circuit breakers have a yellow mechanical indicator to
locally signal tripping due to an earth fault.
b EasyPact earth-leakage circuit breakers may be equipped with an earth-leakage
1 Line-Load (Ue > 300 V AC)
2 Mechanical indicator (ELCB) alarm switch (ALV) to remotely signal tripping due to an earth fault.
3 Adjustable settings IDn and time delay Resetting
4 ELCB test button EasyPact earth-leakage circuit breakers are fully reset by the operating handle.
5 Push to trip button (MCCB)
6 Dielectric tests: disconnecting switch
After resetting, tripping indicators (mechanical and ALV) come to normal position.

Operation
When the circuit breaker has been tripped by an SHT or UVR/UVRN release, it must
be reset locally:
SHT and UVR releases on EZC250. b SHT or UVR/UVRN tripping takes priority over manual closing
b in the presence of a standing trip order, closing of the contacts, even temporary, is
not possible.
Circuit breaker tripping by an SHT/UVR/UVRN release meets the requirements of
standard IEC 60947-2.

The limiting capacity of a circuit breaker is its The exceptional limiting capacity of the EasyPact range greatly reduces the forces
aptitude to limit short-circuit currents. created by fault currents in devices.
The result is a major increase in breaking performance.
DB106049
The Ics value, defined by IEC standard 60947-2, is guaranteed by tests comprising
the following operations:
b break three times consecutively a fault current equal from 25% to 100% of Icu
b check that the device continues to function normally:
v it conducts the rated current without abnormal temperature rises
v protection functions perform within the limits specified by the standard
v suitability for isolation is not impaired.
Current-limiting curves
The current-limiting capacity of a circuit breaker is expressed by two curves which
are a function of the prospective short‑circuit current (the current which would flow if
no protection devices were installed):
b the actual peak current (limited current),
b thermal stress (A2s), i.e. the energy dissipated by the short-circuit in a conductor
with a resistance of 1 W.

Installation guide Cascading 0
What is cascading?
Cascading is the use of the current limiting capacity of circuit breakers at a given
point to permit installation of lower-rated and therefore lower-cost circuit breakers
downstream.
The upstream compact circuit breakers acts as a barrier against short-circuit
currents. In this way, downstream circuit breakers with lower breaking capacities
than the prospective short-circuit (at their point of installation) operate under their
normal breaking conditions.
Since the current is limited throughout the circuit controlled by the limiting circuit
breaker, cascading applies to all switchgear downstream. It is not restricted to two
consecutive devices.
Cascading tables
Merlin Gerin cascading tables are:
b drawn up on the basis of calculations (comparison between the energy limited by
the upstream device and the maximum permissible thermal stress for the
downstream device)
b verified experimentally in accordance with IEC standard 60947-2.
For distribution systems with 220/240 V, 380/415 V and 440 V between phases, the
tables of the following pages indicate cascading possibilities between upstream
Compact/EasyPact and downstream Multi 9 and EasyPact circuit breakers.

Protection functions
Disconnection functions:
Isolate a motor circuit prior to maintenance operations.
Short-circuit protection:
Protect the starter and the cables against major overcurrents (> 10 In).
This type of protection is provided by a circuit breaker.
Control:
Start and stop the motor and, if applicable:
b gradual acceleration
DB115260
b speed control.
Overload protection:
Protect the starter and the cables against minor overcurrents (< 10 In).
Thermal relays provide protection against this type of fault. They may be:
b integrated in the short-circuit protective device
b separate.
Additional specific protection:
b limitative fault protection (while the motor is running)
b preventive fault protection (monitoring of motor insulation with motor off).
Overloads (I < 10 In)
An overload may be caused by:
b an electrical problem, for instance on the mains (loss of a phase, voltage outside
tolerances, etc.)
b a mechanical problem, for instance excessive torque due to abnormally high
demands by the process or motor damage (bearing vibrations, etc.).
A further consequence of these two origins is excessively long starting.
Impedance short-circuit (10 < I < 50 In)
Deterioration of motor-winding insulation is the primary cause.
Short-circuit (I > 50 In)
This type of fault is relatively rare. A possible cause may be a connection error during
maintenance.
Protection against insulation faults
This type of protection may be provided by:
b a residual current device (RCD)
b an insulation monitoring device (IMD).
