tripped and prevents the contacts from reclosing. It is the rapid speed with which the contacts are forced apart coupled with other features of MCBs, which provides the Current limiting capability and safe interruption up to 10,000A. The rapid speed at which the contacts are parted prevents the fault current from reaching its prospective value. The arc drawn between the contacts is moved by magnetic forces into the multiple plate arc chamber where the arc is split, rapidly cooled and extinguished. The total operating time of the MCB 2
C Characteristics
C characteristics MCBs are used for protection of electrical circuits in general and are most widely used because of its suitability for practically all electrical circuits, cable and line protection. They are capable of supplying the majority of inductive and
capacitive loads including most motor and fluorescent lighting loads. This characteristic allows applying loads having high peak currents without requiring the MCB to be oversized. In fact, thanks to this characteristic, it is possible to apply loads with peak currents
operating limits (for shortcircuit operations) are between 5 and 10 times the rated current (In) of MCB. For example the instantaneous mechanism of a 10A MCB will 2 ... 3 0.90 4 ... 6 0.88 >7 0.85

Tripping Characteristics : D 3
operate between 50A and 100A in an overcurrent situation. The thermal operating limits (for overload operation) are between 1.13 and 1.45 of the rated current (In) of the MCB.
Frequency Variation
MCBs may be used up to their normal voltage rating on 400Hz supplies; however the magnetic tripping characteristic must be increased by 30% (e.g. Type C MCB with magnetic characteristics between 5 and 10 times the rated current would become between 6.5 and 13 times rated current.
ensure correct sizing of the device wherein high inrush currents are prevailing. This characteristics allows to use in a high in rush current circuits without requiring the MCB to be over sized. D characteristics MCB shall take the in rush current with peak up to 10 times In, (Rated current) and can be used best advantage for handling much higher in rush circuits eg: Switching solenoids/ capacitor banks/transformers etc. Under D characteristics, the magnetic operating limits (for short circuit operations) are between 10 to 20 times the rated current of MCB. For example the instantaneous mechanism of 10A MCB will operate between 100A and 200A in an over current situation.
current, which should, where possible, provide selectivity. Selectivity means, that in the event of a fault, only the protective device in the vicinity of the fault trips. Thus, parallel current paths can continue to provide the necessary power. For MCBs with upstream fuses, the selectivity limit essentially depends on the current limits and tripping characteristics of the MCB as well as on the prearcing It value of the fuse. Therefore, MCBs with different characteristics and rated breaking capacities also have different selectivity limits. The subsequent tables show the currents up to which selectivity is provided between MCBs and upstream fuses according to DIN VDE 0636 Part 21. The values specified in kA are limit values which have been determined under unfavourable test conditions. In practice, better values can be obtained, depending on the type of the upstream fuse. In the event of a short circuit, when using the 5SX4, MCBs and fuses according to DIN VDE 0636 Part 21, Selectivity is provided up to the indicated values in kA.
DC Operation
Single pole MCBs can be used up to 60V DC and double pole up to 110V DC. However, they should not be used below 18V DC. Though the thermal operation is delayed but this is negligible. The instantaneous tripping characteristic must be increased by 40% (e.g. a Type C MCB has a magnetic tripping characteristic between 5 and 10 times the rated current. This magnetic tripping characteristic would therefore become between 7 and 14 times the rated current.
D Characteristics
D characteristics MCBs are used for protection of electrical circuits involving significant inrush currents like solenoid valves, capacitor banks, transformers, etc. The main use of D characteristics MCBs is to
themselves within close limits. This depends on the peak current of the downstream MCB and on the tripping current of the upstream MCB.
The following table specifies the short-circuit currents in kA up to which selectivity is provided between MCBs connected in series at 230V AC.

or if the specified rated breaking capacity is exceeded, an additional protective device must be connected upstream as backup protection. This
prevents excessive stressing of the MCB. Generally, a fuse is used for this purpose. The following table specifies the short-circuit currents in kA

Add-on Accessories
For applications in industry and in system and plant engineering, add-on accessories are available, such as auxiliary contacts (AC), faultsignal contacts (FC), shunt trips (ST). ST is mounted left of MCB. AC/FC are mounted on right side. These modules can be used as inputs/outputs to a PLC, building-automation system etc. for signalling and control. electrically independent contacts (separated electrical circuits); one of these contacts is normally open and the other normally closed. The mechanically stable position of the contacts does not change unless the circuit-breaker is manually actuated or is tripped due to an overload or a short circuit. The terminals are characterised by a degree of protection IP 2X; they allow connecting conductors with a maximum cross-section of 2.5 mm and are delivered with combined slotted and podzidrive head screws.
