SCHNEIDER PowerPacT J-Frame Mission Critical Circuit Breaker

PowerPacT™ J-Frame Mission Critical Circuit Breaker Installation

Applications
The PowerPacT J-Frame Mission Critical Circuit Breaker is specifically designed to provide selective coordination with QO™ and E-frame circuit breakers during a short-circuit condition.
J-frame mission critical circuit breakers are selective with QO or E-frame circuit breakers per Table 1 when the amperage of the main circuit breaker is at least two times greater than the amperage of the branch circuit breaker.

Precautions

HAZARD OF ELECTRIC SHOCK,

EXPLOSION OR ARC FLASH

•   Apply appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) and follow safe electrical work practices. See NFPA 70E or CSA Z462.

•   This equipment must only be installed and serviced by qualified electrical personnel.

•   Turn off all power supplying this equipment before working on or inside equipment.

•   Always use a properly rated voltage sensing device to confirm power is off.

•   Replace all devices, doors and covers before turning on power to this equipment.

Circuit Breaker Preparation

  1. Turn off all power supplying this equipment before working on or inside equipment.

  2. Trip the circuit breaker (Figure 1, a–c).
    Note: All internal accessories must be installed prior to installing the circuit breaker.

  3. Remove the handle extension
    (d) if it will interfere with the enclosure door closing.
    Note: The handle extension is on all circuit breakers with YE suffix.

  4. Remove accessory cover (e).

Install the internal accessories
(f) as instructed in the instruction bulletins shipped with each accessory.

Visi-Trip™
  1. The Visi-Trip LED handle aids in quickly locating a circuit breaker that requires attention. Inspect the handle position for circuit breaker trip indication. The Visi-Trip handle will flash an LED light as described in Table 2.
    Note: When performing annual maintenance in accordance with MCCB Field Testing and Maintenance Guide
    (0600IB1201), operate the push to trip button (if equipped) to verify the Visi-Trip funcitonality. Cycle the circuit breaker from tripped to OFF, and then from OFF to ON and take not eof the battery health. See Table 2.
    Wait five seconds between handle operation and push-to-trip button operation to ensure that the Visi-Trip handle is on standby mode. Tripping the circuit breaker too soon after toggling may result in the Visi-Trip handle not operating as intended.1
    TABL. 2 :
Light Pattern Indicator
Fast flash for two seconds. Battery low (20% remaining). 1 /  (20% restante).

  1. Refer to the Schneider Electric Frequently Asked Questions page https://[www.se.com](https://www.se.com)/us/en/faqs/home/ for more information.
  2. If a nuisance LED flashing occurs on ON or OFF position, it can be reset by toggling the circuit breaker. If toggling the circuit breaker is not desired, LED flashing will reset after six hours.

  2. Remove circuit breaker in reverse order of installation

Troubleshooting

If problems occur during installation, refer to the following guide. If problems persist, contact the local field office.

HAZARD OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, EXPLOSION, OR ARC FLASH
  • This equipment must be installed and serviced only by qualified electrical personnel.
  •  Troubleshooting may require energizing auxiliary devises with a test power supply. Make sure that the power supply is Off (O) before connecting or disconnecting it to the auxiliary device.
  • Qualified persons performing diagnostics or troubleshooting that require electrical conductors to be energized must comply with NFPA 70 E – Standard for Electrical Safety Requirements for Employee Workplaces and OSHA Standards – 29 CFR Part 1910 Subpart S – Electrical.

Failure to follow these instructions will result in death or serious injury.

Condition Possible Causes Solution
Circuit breaker fails to stay closed. Short circuit or overload on system.

Check system for short circuit or overload.
Circuit beaker trips, but no short circuit or overload is evident.| Voltage is below undervoltage trip setting.| Check system for low voltage.
Push-to-trip button does not trip circuit breaker.| Circuit breaker already tripped.| Move circuit breaker handle to reset then to on (I).
Circuit breaker cannot be opened manually.| Damage to current path.| Contact local field office.
