Breaker Monitor
50 Percent to 100 Percent Breaker Wear
Refer to Figure 5.23. The current value changes from 12.0 kA to 1.5 kA.
1.5 kA is interrupted 3000 times (3000 close/open operations = 6000 – 3000),
pushing the breaker maintenance curve from the 50 percent wear level to the
100 percent wear level.
When the breaker maintenance curve reaches 100 percent for a particular
phase, the percentage wear remains at 100 percent (even if additional current
is interrupted), until reset by the BRE n R command (see View or Reset
Breaker Monitor Information on page 5.24). But the current and trip counts
continue to accumulate, until the BRE n R command resets these counts.
Additionally, logic outputs assert for alarm or other control applications—see
the following discussion.
