Introduction
Low voltage distribution
systems require the general
need of continuity of supply
and safety to personnel and
equipment. The reliable and
safe distribution of electrical
power is dependent upon the
use of protective devices for
making and breaking circuits,
detecting the presence of fault
currents, and for isolating a
faulty circuit with least
disturbance to the system.
In addition, the assemblies
which house and provide
interconnection points for
protective devices play an
important role in this reliability
and safety perspective.
All these matters must be
considered when designing,
developing, operating and
maintaining a modern
electrical power system.
Electrical standards of Canada
and the USA provide two
different methods of applying
assemblies such as
panelboards, switchboards,
etc. into an electrical system:
Fully Rated
The short circuit protective
devices at all levels have a
rating that matches or
exceeds the system
available fault level.
Series Rated or Integrated
Equipment Rating (IER)
The electrical standards
permit the use of
downstream equipment
(such as moulded case
circuit breaker panelboards)
with protective devices
having lower interrupting
ratings than the available
system fault level when
protected by an upstream
fully rated device.
This "series" application of
upstream and downstream
device must comply with
CSA/UL standards which
require that any installation
supplied in this fashion
makes use of devices
which have been tested as
a series combination.
Description
The upstream protective
device may be either a
moulded case circuit breaker
or a fuse (Class R, J, T or L).
In the event of a major fault
both upstream and
downstream devices will
open. The let-through current
is limited by the simultaneous
opening of both devices to a
value which can be safely
cleared. The upstream device
thus protects the lower-rated
downstream device.
The resultant series rating
when applied to a product
assembly is known as an
Integrated Equipment Rating.
Circuit Breakers
A downstream circuit breaker
tested in combination with
an upstream circuit breaker
may be assigned a series
connected rating. These circuit
breakers can utilize either
thermal-magnetic trip units
or electronic trip units and
can be 80% or 100% rated.
When, the downstream circuit
breaker is tested in a piece of
distribution equipment, such
as a panelboard, the net result
is that the panelboard will
have an Integrated Equipment
Rating. Design of the
equipment and selection of
breakers is based on short
circuit interruption tests
specified and witnessed by
CSA/UL. Because the devices
and the equipment are tested
as a system, the manufacturer
can provide and warrant this
Intergrated Equipment Rating.
Fuses
Don't apply fuses using the
up-over-down method. This
graphical/empirical method of
sizing an upstream current
limiting fuse to protect
downstream moulded case
circuit breakers has been
recommended by some fuse
manufacturers. This selection
process is no longer
permissible as the electrical
standards will now recognize
only tested combinations.
Moreover the Up-Over-Down
method could lead to
erroneous and unsafe
conclusions because it treats
the circuit breaker as a device
with only a static interrupting
capacity characteristic.
In fact, the circuit breaker has
a number of dynamic
characteristics at play during
fault interruption ... one of the
most dominant being the
speed of contact opening.
These dynamic characteristics
vary greatly between circuit
breaker designs.
For proper application of
current limiting fuses, always
refer to recommendations
by the manufacturer of the
circuit breaker and its
assembly, which are based
on actual test data.
Circuit Protection and
Continuity
In applying Integrated
Equipment Ratings, the design
engineer should understand
that this technique does not
jeopardize circuit protection
and continuity when compared
to fully rated equipment
performance.
Integrated Equipment Ratings
generally apply to the 600
Ampere and lower feeder
level. At the feeder level
(i.e. upstream breaker), the
device is fully rated. The user
level device (i.e. downstream
breaker) is a standard
interrupting capacity device.
Whether the downstream
breaker is fully rated
(see figure 1) or IER rated
(see figure 2), co-ordination
and selectivity remain the
same. In BOTH Fully Rated
and Integrated Equipment
Rating systems, a down-
stream fault current higher
than the instantaneous trip
setting of the upstream
breaker may result in both
circuit breakers tripping. This
situation is usually acceptable
when one considers that the
vast majority of faults are
overloads or limited arcing
faults where time-current
selectivity still applies. Circuit
continuity for Integrated
Equipment Rating systems is
the same as for fully rated
systems when applied at 600
Amperes and below.

CSA/UL Standards
Moulded case circuit breakers
are designed and tested to
CSA Spec. C22.2 #5.1 and/or
U/L #489. Both these
standards include the test
requirements for verifying a
series combination rating.
The short circuit tests are
performed with the upstream
device and the downstream
circuit breaker mounted in the
smallest enclosure in which
each is to be used. Two short
circuit shots are required; one
where the fault is applied with
both devices closed, the other
by closing the downstream
breaker on the fault. After the
short circuit shots, the
downstream device must pass
a calibration check carrying
twice rated current and a
dielectric withstand test.
An intermediate interrupting
test may be required by the
testing agency if it is deemed
necessary to verify the
downstream breaker over the
entire range of fault current.
The short circuit test must
be repeated if a manufacturer
requires a series rating with
the downstream circuit
breaker mounted in a
panelboard.
The series requirements which
are now included in C22.2 #5.1
are in the CSA Canadian
Electrical Code Part I,
Rule 14-014, "Series Rated
Combinations".
Fault Calculations/Protection
of Downstream Devices
and Equipment
When applying Integrated
Equipment Ratings it is only
necessary to evaluate the
available fault current level
(in symmetrical kA) at the line
terminals of the main or
upstream device.
This is sufficient because:
The upstream/main device
(circuit breaker or fuse) is
fully rated for the available
fault level.
The upstream device and
downstream assembly have
a test-proven Integrated
Equipment Rating to meet
or exceed the available fault
level.
The let-through current
and energy below the
downstream breaker is at
or below the level of
let-through for the
downstream device at its
rated fault capacity. In this
manner downstream cables
and loads are protected
as normal.
Selection
To develop a series connected
protective system, it is
suggested that the design
engineer, after completing
preliminary steps:
Define available fault current
at the line terminals of the
upstream breaker.
Select an upstream breaker
with an interrupting rating
equal to or greater than the
available fault current.
Verify the Integrated
Equipment Ratings of the
selected equipment by
referring to the tables in this
brochure. Tables show the
maximum main or upstream
fuse or breaker frame
ampere rating. The IER
combination applies from
the minimum to the
maximum fuse or breaker
frame rating.
Confirm, during
commissioning, that the
correct breakers have been
installed by checking the
nameplates appearing on
the equipment.
Motor Loads
In most applications,
panelboards feed non-motor
or low inductance loads, and
therefore, there is no
requirement to consider motor
contribution when selecting
series combinations using the
IER charts. However, if the
downstream panelboard feeds
motors through its branch
circuit breakers then due
consideration should be given
to the motor fault contribution.
CEC Part 1, Appendix B, Notes
on rules; 14-014 states that
"Where motors are connected
in the system between the
series connected devices, any
significant motor contribution
to the fault current should be
considered. It is generally
agreed that the contribution of
asynchronous motors to the
short circuit current may be
neglected if the sum of the
rated currents on motors
connected directly to the point
between-the series connected
devices is 1% or less of the
interrupting rating of the
downstream circuit breaker.
(See IEC Publication 60781)."
For those situations where
the total motor load is above
this level, fully rated circuit
breakers should be considered.

Panelboard Marking
Downstream panelboards
containing branch circuit
breakers which are being
applied on the basis of a series
rating must be clearly marked
to indicate the
following: (Figure #3)
Short circuit rating
Upstream breaker type
Branch breaker type
Apply and replace breakers
prudently since the interrupting
capability of an Integrated
Equipment Rating panelboard
is based on specific upstream
and downstream devices as
marked on the panelboard
label. It is absolutely essential
that any additional or
replacement breakers be of
the same type and rating as
indicated on the label.
Other Applications of Series
Ratings (IER)
Series ratings can also be
applied under the following:
Any fully rated breaker can
be applied upstream,
downstream or in the middle
of any of the series ratings
stated in tables.
Any series rating stated
in the tables may have
additional series rated
branch breakers of the
exact same type further
downstream in that rating.
Combining series ratings are
allowed under certain
conditions. Main and branch
ratings may be combined if:
Breakers A, B, and C are in
series respectively from
main to branch. Breakers A
and B series rate together
Breakers A and C series rate
at the same fault level (or
higher). Then it is allowable
to use A, B and C together
at the A-B series rating.
It is improper to combine
series ratings under the
following condition:
Breakers A, B, and C are in
series respectively from
main to branch. Breakers A
and B series rate together.
Breakers B and C series rate
at the Breaker B interrupting
rating leve1. It is not
allowable to use A, B and C
together at the A-B series
rating. However combining
multiple overcurrent devices
as in this example, can be
accomplished if all devices
in the series combination
have been tested together.
Summary
The utilization of this
technique will result in a
number of benefits without
sacrificing either safety
or reliability:
Reduction of Panelboard
initial cost and size, since
downstream breakers are
rated only for the
prospective short circuit
fault current at their point
of application.
Requirement of fault
calculations for downstream
product selection is
eliminated.
Downstream circuit
breakers are readily
available, volume produced
and standard interrupting
type.

Application and Worked
Example
Figure 3 shows a typical
schematic that demonstrates
the use of Integrated
Equipment Ratings. The main
Service Switchboard includes
a 1600 amp incoming moulded
case circuit breaker which
feeds a power panelboard
in a distribution section of the
board. It is assumed that the
fault current of 40 kA is
available at the power
panelboard bus since the
main 1600 amp circuit breaker
provides little or no current
limitation.
The diagram also indicates that
a 400 amp branch breaker in
the distribution section feeds a
downstream Lighting and
Distribution Panel.
Using the IER Charts
The selection of this
downstream lighting and
distribution panelboard using
Integrated Equipment Ratings
is achieved as follows:
Step 1
Look at the given
information. (Figure 4)
System Operating Voltage:
600Y/347V
Fault Level Available: 40kA
Upstream Breaker Amps:
400A
Downstream Breakers
Amps: 2 and 3 pole
15-150A, 1 pole 15-30A
Step 2
Determine the type of
panelboard.
System operating voltage is
600Y/347. There are two
types of panelboards that
operate at this voltage:
Pow-R-Line 2a and 3a.
Since some branches are
greater than 100A,
the Pow-R-Line 3a must
be used.
Step 3
Select and use the IER chart
corresponding to the
panelboard chosen. (Figure 5)
First, go to the left most
column and select the
Voltage Level- for this
example: 600Y /347V (A).
Next, select the Fault Level
associated with that voltage
from the Fault Level Available
column. Use the next highest
value if the exact level is not
shown - for example:
40kA - go to 42kA (B).
Now, select the Main or
Upstream Breaker Type
Amperage. Proceed
horizontally to the column
with the required ampere
rating of upstream device -
400A (C).

Finally, proceed vertically
down from this amperage
(C), and horizontally across
from the fault level (B).
Where these intersect, (D),
read the required upstream
device, - KDC.
Note: If no main or upstream
breaker or fuse is shown,
then go to a higher fault level
that shows a device
protecting the particular
branch breakers. If one is not
shown, then a good
combination does not exist.
The upstream device selected
is a KDC3400 breaker with
standard rated FDB 14kA
branch breaker.
