Miscellaneous provisions for making and breaking tests

The following subclauses are applicable to all making and breaking tests unless otherwise specified in the relevant clauses. Where applicable, prior to the commencement of the tests, the manufacturer shall declare the values of minimum conditions of the operating mechanism guaranteeing the rated operating sequence (for example the minimum functional pressure for operation in case of a hydraulic operating mechanism); minimum conditions of the interrupting device guaranteeing the rated operating sequence (for example the minimum functional pressure for interruption in case of a SF 6 circuitbreaker). 6.102.1 General

Circuit-breakers shall be capable of making and breaking all short-circuit currents, symmetrical and asymmetrical, up to and including the rated short-circuit breaking currents: this is demonstrated, when the circuit-breakers make and break the specified three-phase symmetrical and asymmetrical currents between 10 % (or such lower currents as specified in 6.107.2 if 6.107.1 is applicable) and 100 % of the rated short-circuit breaking current at rated voltage. In addition, circuit-breakers intended to be used in an earthed neutral system or for singlepole operation shall make and break single-phase short-circuit currents between 10 % (or such lower currents as specified in 6.107.2 if 6.107.1 is applicable) and 100 % of the rated short-circuit breaking current at phase-to-earth voltage ( U r / 3). Circuit-breakers to which any capacitive current switching rating has been assigned shall be capable of switching capacitive currents up to and including the rated capacitive switching current at a voltage level up to and including the specified one (see 6.111.7). This is demonstrated when the circuit-breakers switch the rated capacitive switching current at the specified test voltage.
