Universal connectors...
…a new concept
 Complete unit
=
 Unit without terminal
+
 connector kit
• Field installation
• no added price for vertical
connection
• Flexibility right on time of
the installation
Construction

Segregated functions of the Micrologic control
unit
 Principle
• Basic protection functions
are supplied by the fault
itself
• Added protection functions
are segregated and do not
interfere with the basic
protection
• Communication modules
are independent from the
control unit

Construction

Interface for the control unit :
CT and performances plug
 A main plug is connected to the
basic unit to set the characteristics
of the breaker and allow the
interchangeability of the control
unit
• The main plug is set with the CT
rating and limits the rating of the
breaker to the capacity of the
copper circuit
• The secondary plug is set with the
breaker performances N1, H1, H2,
H3, L1(DIN/DINF)
 The control unit reads the
information on this interface

Metallic filters on
Masterpact NT and NW
 Highly reduced external gas and particules
projections
• Breaking a high current produces :
– High temperature ionized gas(4000°C
to 12 000°C)
– burning particles projections.
• Installation constraints:
– Safety perimeters
– Oversized enclosures to withstand
overpressures
Innovations

Metallic filters on
Masterpact NT et NW
 High technology 3 D metallic material
• 6 different materials have been
intensively tested
• Excellent results with:
– High reduction of overpressures
inside the enclosure
– Reduction of the safety perimeters
to nearly zero (no or very few
ionized gas outside the arc chutes)

Existing
technology
Advantages Drawbacks
Iron CT Enough power to supply the
ASIC
One CT for every rating due to
high saturation
Measurement is not accurate
(1st wave, harmonics, high
current)
Rogowski toroid
Air CT
Unlimited range of
measurement
High accuracy including the first
wave, harmonics and high
currents
Very low power delivered, not
able to supply the control unit
Current sensors
 2 functions: supply the control units and give current measurement
Innovations

Current sensors
 Dual air/iron sensors
• Iron CT’s with magnetic shunt
– Power supply
– Bring the necessary energy
whatever the primary current
• Rogowski air CT’s
– Give current measurement
• Cost effective thanks to:
– Reduced size of the iron CT
– Reduced number of the sensors
(one fits all ratings from 400 to
3200A)
