For undated references the latest edition of the publication referred to applies. EN 3841-100 Aerospace series - Circuit breakers - Test methods - Part 100: General 1)
9、3 Method 3.1 General conditions The circuit breakers shall be mounted as described in clause 4 of EN 3841-100, in connection with the applicable technical specification. During the test, the current applied to the circuit breakers shall remain constant. The current may be either d.c. or a.c. with fr
10、equency indicated in the product standard and resistive load. Prior to each test, the tripped circuit breakers (with main contacts open) and their connections shall be stabilized to the specified temperature f 5 OC. The test shall only be carried out at normal airflow. 3.2 Tripping points 3.2.1 Mini
11、mum tripping point The circuit breakers shall be subjected to the current specified in the product standard. The minimum tripping time shall be in accordance with the product standard. The circuit breakers shall not trip during this period. The temperature of the terminals shall be measured througho
12、ut the test. The temperature increase of the terminals shall not exceed 75 K. For this measurement, thermocouples or other appropriate low conductivity sensors shall be used, placed on a terminal as close as possible to the housing of the circuit breaker. 3.2.2 Maximum tripping point When subjected
13、to the current specified for the maximum tripping point in the product standard, the circuit breakers shall trip within the specified time. 3.2.3 Overload tripping The circuit breakers shall be subjected to the currents specified in the product standard and the tripping time shall be measured. 1) Pu

15、cordance with the conditions specified in the technical specification. 3.2.5 The circuit breakers shall be placed in a suitable low pressure/temperature chamber and shall be connected to the applicable current source. The chamber shall be set to the test temperature indicated in the product standard
16、 held constant for a minimum of 1 h. Then the chamber shall be brought to the atmospheric pressure corresponding to the altitude specified in the product standard. Under these conditions, the circuit breakers shall be subjected to the current defined in the product standard for the minimum points at altitude and temperature. The test period shall be 1 h. Minimum tripping points at altitude 3.3 Requirements The tripping points and trip times shall meet the requirements of the product standard.
