Auxiliaries
All the auxiliaries designed for the
Masterpact AC circuit breakers may be used
on the DC versions, with the exception of the
position switches, indicating the connected
(CE), disconnected (CD) and test (CT)
positions.
Auxiliary connections are made via one or
two manually disconnectable plugs that
remain accessible from the front.
Accessories
Standard Masterpact DC range equipment
includes an arc-chute cover (CC) and, on
drawout versions, safety shutters (VO).
Interphase barriers (EIP) are not available
for the DC range.

continuity of service
Masterpact circuit breakers are designed
with continuity of service in mind. The
result is:
c total time discrimination on the N1 and H1
circuit breakers and maximum discrimination
on H2 circuit breakers;
c factory pre-setting of Masterpact circuit
breakers which never require any periodic
maintenance;
c high electrical endurance: 10 000 cycles at
1600 A and 30 cycles at 50 kA, without
maintenance;
c preventive indications: load-shedding
indication switch, long-time threshold
overrun alarm, etc.;
c easy access to the main contacts fitted
with mechanical wear indicators. An optional
function on the STR68 control unit is the
remote indication of contact wear, thus
making possible continuous monitoring of
circuit breakers during their service life.

operating safety
The insulating casing of Masterpact
circuit breakers provides for:
c user safety:
v double insulation on the front face
(class II),
v auxiliary circuits in a compartment
insulated from the power circuits;
c switchboard safety when the circuit
breaker is in the open position:
v each pole is effectively isolated in its own
housing,
v limitation of external disturbances.
Positive contact indication
The position indicator cannot indicate
open unless the poles are effectively
separated by the required distance.
The circuit breakers automatically open
during racking in and out.
reliability
c Masterpact circuit breakers comprise ten
times fewer parts than traditional devices.
They are easier to produce and more
reliable.
c the Masterpact circuit-breaker factory is
certified ISO 9002;
c the design of Masterpact circuit breakers
is modular with delayed differentiation
(highest possible number of common parts
on all models). The result is shorter delivery
times and enhanced reliability.
