10、 - Circuit breakers - Test methods - Patt 700: General 1) 3 Method 3.1 General conditions The circuit breakers shall be mounted as specified in EN 3841-100, in connection with the applicable technical specification and the product standard. The adjustment of the test current shall be carried out wit
11、h ohmic resistors and ironless inductors. NOTE reached. If iron-core inductors are used, saturation shall not occur until the peak of the test current has been The resistors and inductors shall be connected in series. The inductance of the current source shall be taken into account when determining
12、the time constant and the power factor. 3.2 Test circuit According to figure 1 with d.c. and a.c., single-pole. According to figure 2 with a.c., three-pole. 1) Published as AECMA Prestandard at the date of publication of this standard Copyright Association Europeene des Constructeurs de Materiel Aer

The circuit breakers may be operated either manually or by means of a
15、mechanical device simulating the manual operation as much as possible. The test shall be carried out with 2 operating cycles per minute (electrical tests) or 6 or 7 operating cycles per minute (mechanical tests) at an actuating speed of 12 mm/s, with a duty cycle of 20 %. 3.4 Service life without lo
16、ad The number of operating cycles shall be specified in the product standard. Verification tests in accordance with technical specification and product standard. 3.5 Service life at rated current The number of operating cycles and the applicable load values shall be specified in the product standard
17、. The load of the signal contacts related to the load of the main contacts shall also be indicated in the product standard. Verification tests in accordance with technical specification and product standard. 3.6 The number of operating cycles shall be specified in the product standard. Verification
18、tests in accordance with technical specification and product standard. Service life at low current 3.7 3.7.1 General The number of operating cycles and the applicable load values shall be specified in the product standard. Service life with overload tripping 3.7.2 Operations 3.7.2.1 Break operation
19、(CO) The circuit breakers shall be switched on without current. Then the overload shall be switched an to the circuit breakers by means of the main switch (SI) and maintained until the circuit breakers trip. 3.7.2.2 Make operation (OCO) The main switch (SI) shall be closed and the circuit breakers s
20、hall be switched on. Then the actuator button shall be released at normal operating speed. Switch off is by overload tripping. 3.7.2.3 Operating conditions When multi-pole circuit breakers are tested for single-pole overload tripping, the remaining poles shall carry 0.9 In. The number of operating c
21、ycles and the switching sequence shall be indicated in the product standard. 3.7.3 Verification tests in accordance with technical specification and product standard 3.8 Test combinations The product standard may specify test combinations according to 3.4, 3.5, 3.6 and 3.7 in a defined sequence.
