Cascading and enhanced

discrimination

Complementary
technical information

With traditional circuit breakers, cascading between two devices generally results in
the look of discrimination.
With Compact circuit breakers, the discrimination characteristics in the tables remain
applicable and are in some cases even enhanced. Protection discrimination is
ensured for short-circuit currents greater than the rated breaking capacity of the
circuit breaker and even, in some cases, for its enhanced breaking capacity. In the
later case, protection discrimination is total, i.e. only the downstream device trips
for any and all possible faults at its point in the installation.
Example
Consider a combination between:
bb a Compact NSX250H with trip unit TM250D
bb a Compact NSX100F with trip unit TM25D.
The discrimination tables indicate total discrimination. Protection discrimination is
therefore ensured up to the breaking capacity of the NSX100F, i.e. 36 kA.
The cascading tables indicate an enhanced breaking capacity of 70 kA.
The enhanced discrimination tables indicate that in a cascading configuration,
discrimination is ensured up to 70 kA, i.e. for any and all possible faults at that point
in the installation.

Enhanced discrimination tables - 380/415 V

For each combination of two circuit breakers, the tables indicate the:

15 / 25

Downstream device
breaking capacity enhanced
by cascading (in kA)

Selectivity limit enhanced by cascading


(in kA)

In a table, a box containing two equal values indicates that discrimination is provided
up to the reinforced breaking capacity of the downstream device.
These tables apply only to cases with combined discrimination and cascading
between two devices. For all other cases, refer to the normal cascading and
discrimination tables.

Technical principle

DB125677.eps

Enhanced discrimination is the result of the exclusive Compact NSX Roto-active


breaking technique which operates as follows:
bb due to the short-circuit current (electrodynamic forces), the contacts in both
devices simultaneously separate. The result is major limitation of the short-circuit
current
bb the dissipated energy provokes the reflex tripping of the downstream device,
but is insufficient to trip the upstream device.

Note: respect the basic rules of discrimination, in terms of overload, short-circuit, see page 557E4300.indd/569 and 557E4305.indd/576.

It is the coordination of automatic cut-off devices for a fault that occurs at any point in
the network to be eliminated by the upstream circuit breaker, the circuit breaker that
is immediately upstream of the fault and by that circuit breaker alone!

DB403499.eps

Continuity of service

Discrimination is an essential element that must be taken into account as early as in


the design of a low voltage installation to enable continuity of the electricity service.

Production and safety

Discrimination provides much convenience for all users, but it is an essential


requirement when continuity of service is of utmost importance.
Discrimination means that only the part with the fault is disconnected. It enables:
bb continuity of supply for adjacent circuits,
bb localization of the faulty circuit.
D1 and D2 in series.

For some installations or installation parts:


bb operating theatre in clinics and hospitals,
bb marine,
bb safety equipment,
bb production site.
The requirements for continuous electricity often make it necessary to verify the
discrimination between upstream and downstream protection devices.
If there is a total lack of discrimination, it will be necessary to try to achieve partial
discrimination. Likewise, if there is a limit to the level of discrimination and this
proves satisfactory in the majority of cases, it can still be attempted to make it total.
Of course, any modification must be made while observing the following main
parameters:
bb protection of personnel,
bb are the thermal stresses I2t of the cables always taken into account?
bb are the breaking capacities of the devices higher than the prospective Isc?
Finally, when it is not possible to achieve discrimination and it is essential for the
correct operation of the installation, the installation of uninterruptible power supplies
(UPS) must be considered. Generator units, inverters, etc. are then used.
There are several types of discrimination that can be used separately or together.
For protection against overcurrent, this generally concerns current discrimination
and time discrimination.
The principle is as follows.

Discrimination (Selectivity)

DB403501.eps

Current and energy discrimination

Discrimination involves ensuring coordination between two circuit breakers in series,


so that, in the event of a fault, only one circuit breaker, located immediately upstream
of the fault, trips. A discrimination current Is is defined so that:
bb Ifault < Is: only D2 eliminates the fault, discrimination is ensured,
bb Ifault > Is: both circuit breakers may trip, discrimination is not ensured.

Slight overcurrent or overload

Under the effect of an abnormal inrush current, for example an increase in the
resistive torque of a motor, the current going through the circuit is higher than the
rated current. These currents may damage the installation (risk of an electrical fire).
Devices to protect against overcurrent can be characterized by their operating
curves as a function of prospective current Ip:
bb the operating curve is time-based when the breaking time is greater than 50 ms
(curve t = f (Ip). Discrimination is achieved if the ln upstream / In downstream
operation threshold ratio is > 1.3 and if the current offset of the magnetic curves is
observed.

DB403503.eps

This is current discrimination

The greater the difference between the ratings of the upstream and downstream
circuit breakers, the more extensive the discrimination.

Short circuit

For example when there is contact between two phases we are faced with a full
insulation fault which risks damaging the installation.
The function that makes it possible to protect against this type of fault is magnetic
protection.
To ensure discrimination, we must maintain a ratio between the upstream and
downstream protection devices. This is energy discrimination.
bb Energy: when the intervention time is less than 50 ms and more particularly less
than the time of one half wave (10 ms) of current with limiting circuit breakers.

DB124205.eps

Time discrimination

The principle is based on the time difference (t) of the upstream magnetic curve.
To achieve this, it is necessary to have an upstream circuit breaker with time-delay
bands.
The delay introduced must make it possible to improve discrimination without
endangering the cable or busbars which would then have to withstand the
overcurrent for longer (greater thermal effects I2t and electrodynamic stresses).

Total or partial discrimination

DB403507.eps

Discrimination may be partial or total, up to the breaking capacity of the downstream


circuit breaker. For total discrimination, the characteristics of the upstream device
must be higher than those of the downstream device (higher than the breaking
capacity of the downstream circuit breaker MCCB).

Standard IEC 60947-2 on industrial circuit breakers, and in particular Appendix A,


deals with coordination between a circuit-breaker and another device to protect
against short circuits combined in the same circuit.
This protection device may be a fuse or another circuit breaker.

Discrimination between modular circuit breakers

DB403509.eps

We use two types of discrimination when these circuit breakers are combined:
bb current discrimination,
bb energy discrimination.
For discrimination to be ensured whatever the prospective fault current, 3 conditions
have to be fulfilled:
bb the upstream and downstream circuit breakers must have different ratings
(ratio > 1.3),
bb the envelope of their magnetic curves must be different,
bb the energy allowed to pass through the downstream circuit breaker when it cuts off
must still be less than the operating energy of the upstream trip.

Example

DB403510.eps

bb Let us take the example of a single phase network where we have a 32 A curve D
circuit breaker in series with a 10 A curve D circuit breaker:
vv the 32 A circuit breaker protects the 62 cables and the 10 A circuit breaker protects
the 1.52 cables. This combination allows discrimination, but up to what threshold?
vv if current discrimination is considered (t = f (Ip)) it can be seen that the tripping
curve of the downstream circuit breaker is well below the non-tripping curve of the
upstream circuit breaker,
vv furthermore, each circuit breaker is well below the maximum stress permitted by
the cables.

When considering energy discrimination, it is necessary to compare the maximum

.stresses characterized by the integrals ft relative to the development of the arc in the
DB403512.eps

downstream device and by the sensitivity of the trip unit, still in ft, of the upstream
device (curves I2t = f (Ip)).

Discrimination between Compact NSX upstream


and modular circuit breakers downstream

Compact NSX circuit breakers have been designed to ensure total discrimination
with Acti9 range.
bb Total discrimination between Compact NSX 100 A with electronic trip unit and
Acti9 circuit breaker up to 40 A.
bb Total discrimination between Compact NSX u 160 A with TMD trip unit u125 A or
electronic trip unit and Acti9 up to 63 A.

Discrimination between Compact NSX circuit


breakers
DB115814.eps

Thanks to the Roto-Active breaking principle in the Compact NSX, a combination of


Schneider Electric circuit breakers provides an exceptional level of discrimination
between protection devices.
This performance is due to the combination and optimization of 3 principles:
bb current discrimination,
bb energy discrimination,
bb time discrimination.
Protection against overloads: current discrimination
The protection is selective if the ratio between the setting thresholds is higher than 1.6 (in the
case of two distribution circuit breakers).

Protection against weak short circuits: time discrimination


Tripping of the upstream device has a slight time delay; tripping of the downstream device is
faster.
The protection is selective if the ratio between the short-circuit protection thresholds is no less
than 1.5.

Protection against high short circuits: energy discrimination


This principle combines the exceptional limiting power of the Compact NSX devices and reflex
release, sensitive to the energy dissipated by the short circuit in the device.
When a short circuit is high, if it is seen by two devices, the downstream device limits it greatly.
The energy dissipated in the upstream device is insufficient to cause it to trip: there is
discrimination whatever the value of the short circuit.
The range has been designed to ensure energy discrimination between NSX630/NSX250/
NSX100 or NSX400/NSX160.

Discrimination between Masterpact or Compact NS


u 630 A upstream and Compact NSX downstream

Thanks to their high-performance control units and a very innovative design,


Masterpact and Compact NS u 630 A devices offer, as standard, a very high level of
discrimination with downstream Compact NSX up to 630 A
Respect the basic rules of discrimination for overload and short-circuit, or check that
curves do not overlap with Ecodial software.

Additional conditions according to the trip units

Short time trip pickup current (Isd)


The tables show the limit of discrimination assuming the short time trip pickup
current Isd = 10 x Ir.
In many cases, when discrimination is total, a different adjustment may be used
provided that the ratio between the magnetic thresholds indicated above is
observed.
When the limit of discrimination indicated in the table is 10 x Ir, the limit of
discrimination is in fact the upstream magnetic threshold Isd.
Instantaneous trip pickup current (Ii)
The tables show the limit of discrimination assuming the instantaneous trip pickup
current set to its maximum value and when it is inhibited (category B circuit breaker
only).
bb When the limit of discrimination indicated in the table is 15 x In of the upstream
device, the limit of discrimination is in fact the instantaneous trip pickup current of the
upstream device.
bb When the upstream device is a type B circuit breaker and the downstream device
is type A, the instantaneous trip pickup current of the upstream device may be set to
below 15 x In as long as it remains higher than the reflex release threshold of the
downstream device.
bb When a Micrologic 5.x is used downstream of a Micrologic 2.x, the downstream
Tsd should be set to band 0 and Ii = Isd.

DB117227.eps

Short time tripping delay (Tsd)


When the upstream and downstream circuit breakers are fitted with a Micrologic 5.x,
6.x, 7.x: trip unit, the minimum non-tripping time of the upstream device must be
greater than the maximum tripping time of the downstream device.

Tsd D1 > Tsd D2 (One band)


I2t Off / On

The tables show the limit of discrimination assuming function I2t OFF. If this is not the
case, the user must verify that the curves do not overlap.
Ground Fault Protection (GFP) (Ig, Tg)
When the upstream and downstream circuit breakers are fitted with a Micrologic 6.x
trip unit, the user must verify current and time discrimination:

current discrimination

The setting of the tripping threshold of the upstream GFP is greater than that of the
downstream GFP. Because of the tolerances on the settings, a difference of 30 %
between the upstream threshold and the downstream threshold is sufficient.

time discrimination

The intentional time-delay setting for the upstream GFP is higher than the opening
time of the downstream protection device. Furthermore, it is essential that the
intentional time-delay applied to the upstream protection device observes the
maximum insulation fault elimination time defined by NEC 230.95 (i.e. 1 s for
3000A).

Ig D1 u 1.3 Ig D2 Tg D1 > Tg D2 (One band)


*GFP : Ground Fault Protection.
DB125678.eps

Residual current devices


Discrimination of residual current devices (RCD) is also necessary to ensure good
continuity of service for the final user. Consequently, any pair of upstream/
downstream residual current devices on the distribution network must meet the
following conditions:
bb the sensitivity of the upstream residual current device must be at least equal to
three times the sensitivity of the downstream residual current device (In D1 u 3 x
In D2),
bb the upstream residual current device must be:
vv of the selective (S) type (or setting) if the downstream residual current device is an
instantaneous type,
vv of the delayed (R) type (or setting) if the downstream residual current device is a
selective type.
The minimum non-tripping time of the upstream device will therefore be greater than
the maximum tripping time of the downstream device for all current values (t (D1) >
t (D2)).

Example: solution diagram

Upstream we have a NG125N 80 A 2P curve C


and downstream an iC60N 16 A 2P curve C.
The network is 230 V between phase and
neutral.
By referring to the light green table on the
discrimination page for NG125N curve C with
iC60 downstream, we find 1800 amps.

Specifications

We want to achieve continuity of service in the event of a fault downstream of the


NG125N 80 A. This circuit has an Isc of 1 kA under a voltage of 230 V.
By referring to the table for 230 V, 1P+N network, we find that for an upstream
NG125N we can have total discrimination up to 16 A if we use an iC60N 1P+N (up to
25 A with an iC60N 2P).

If the downstream product is replaced by an


iDPN N 16 A 1P+N curve C, you will use the dark

Discrimination between circuit breakers

In the following tables we show the level of discrimination between two LV circuits
that are protected by modular circuit breakers.
This discrimination will be either:
bb total: represented by a T (up to the breaking capacity of the downstream device),
bb partial: discrimination limit current (Is) indicated. Below this value discrimination is
ensured, above this value the upstream device is also involved in breaking,
bb zero: no discrimination ensured.
