Section 1—General Information

Introduction

H-frame and J-frame molded case circuit breakers are designed to protect electrical systems from

damage caused by overloads and short circuits. All circuit breakers are designed to open and close a

circuit by nonautomatic means and to open the circuit automatically on a predetermined overcurrent.

Features and Benefits

The H- and J-frame modular platform provides many options for accessories, configurations, and

actuation. H- and J-frame circuit breakers (15–250 A) and motor-circuit protectors (30–250 A) are

designed to use common accessories. Some of the key features are defined below:

Common Design Envelope

Both the H-frame and J-frame circuit breakers feature common mounting holes, handle locations and

trim dimensions.

High Ampere Interrupting Ratings (AIR)

Circuit breakers are available with interrupting ratings up to:

•125 kA at 240 Vac delta

•100 kA at 480 Vac delta

•50 kA at 600 Vac delta.

PowerPact® H- and J-Frame Circuit Breakers

Section 1—General Information

05/2009

Dual-Break Rotating Contacts

All PowerPact® H-frame and J-frame circuit breakers are equipped with dual-break rotating contacts

that reduce the amount of peak current during a short circuit fault. This reduces the let-through

currents and enhances equipment protection.

Reduced Let-Through Currents

The moving contact has the shape of an elongated “S” and rotates around an

floating axis. The shape of the fixed and moving contacts are such that the

repelling forces appear as soon as the circuit reaches approximately 15 times In.

Due to the rotating movement, repulsion is rapid and the device greatly limits

short-circuit currents, whatever the interrupting level of the unit (D, G, J or L). The

fault current is extinguished before it can fully develop. Lower let-through currents

provide less peak energy, reducing the required bus bar bracing, lowering

enclosure pressure, and delivering improved series or combination ratings.

Special constructions are designed for continuous operation at 100% of their current rating.

The 100% rated circuit breakers require a larger enclosure than the standard enclosures described on

page 42.

Internal Operating Mechanism

H-frame and J-frame circuit breakers have an over-center toggle

mechanism providing quick-make, quick-break operation. The operating

mechanism is also trip-free, which allows tripping even when the circuit

breaker handle is held in the “ON” position.

Internal cross-bars provide common opening and closing of all poles with a

single operating handle.

All H-frame and J-frame circuit breakers have an integral push-to-trip

button in the cover to manually trip the circuit breaker. This should be used

as part of a regular preventive maintenance program.

Handle Position Indication

The H-frame and J-frame circuit breaker handle can assume any of three positions, ON, tripped or

OFF as shown. The center tripped position provides positive visual indication that the circuit breaker

has tripped.

The circuit breaker can be reset by first pushing the handle to the extreme “OFF” position. Power can

then be restored to the load by pushing the handle to the “ON” position.

PowerPact® H- and J-Frame Circuit Breakers

Section 1—General Information

05/2009

Trip System (Trip Units)

The H-frame and J-frame circuit breakers are equipped with a thermal-magnetic trip system designed

to open automatically under overload or short circuit. H-frame and J-frame circuit breakers contain

individual thermal (overload) and magnetic (short circuit) sensing elements in each pole.

The amperage ratings of the thermal trip elements are calibrated at 104°F (40°C) free air ambient

temperature. Per the National Electric Code® (NEC®), circuit breakers may only be applied

continuously at up to 80% of their rating.

Some models of the H- and J-frame circuit breakers are UL Listed to be applied at up to 100% of their

current rating. Because of the additional heat generated, the use of specially-designed enclosures and

90°C rated wire is required when applying circuit breakers at 100% of continuous current rating.

Markings on the circuit breaker indicate the minimum enclosure size and ventilation required. The

90°C wire must be sized according to the ampacities of the 75°C wire column in the NEC. Circuit

breakers with 100% rating can also be used in applications requiring only 80% continuous loading.

Suitable for Isolation (Positive Contact Indication)

All PowerPact H-frame and J-frame circuit breakers and switches are suitable for isolation as defined

in the IEC 60947-2 standard.

•The isolation position corresponds to the O (OFF position)

•The operating handle cannot indicate the OFF position unless the contacts are open

•Padlocks may not be installed unless the contacts are open

NOTE: Installation of a rotary handle or a motor mechanism does not alter the functionality of the

position indication system.

The isolation function is certified by tests guaranteeing the mechanical reliability of the position

indication system, the absence of leakage currents and the overvoltage withstand capacity between

upstream and downstream connections.

Molded Case Circuit Breakers

Circuit Breaker Ratings

The interrupting rating is the highest current at rated voltage the circuit breaker is designed to safely

interrupt under standard test conditions. Circuit breakers must be selected with interrupting ratings

equal to or greater than the available short-circuit current at the point where the circuit breaker is

applied to the system (unless it is a branch device in a series rated combination).

Interrupting ratings are shown on the front of the circuit breaker.

PowerPact® H- and J-Frame Circuit Breakers

Section 1—General Information

Marine Ratings

UL Marine Listed Circuit Breakers (UL489SA)

A standard for molded case circuit breakers which are intended to be installed and used aboard a boat

or vessel is included in Supplement SA SB to UL 489, “Standard for Molded Case Circuit Breakers and

Circuit Breaker Enclosures’’ (also referred to as UL product category DKTY). This UL Standard was

established in accordance with U.S. Coast Guard regulations, applicable American Boat and Yacht

Council Inc. publications, and NFPA® 302 “Standard for Motor Craft (Pleasure and Commercial)’’. In

order to be UL Listed for marine use, circuit breakers must not use aluminum or aluminum alloys for

terminal connections and must be calibrated at an ambient temperature of 40°C. Standard circuit

breakers should not be specified or used in place of marine circuit breakers.

The PowerPact H and J-frame circuit breakers are UL 489 SA and SB Marine Listed for use on vessels

over 65 ft. (19.8 m) in length and under 65 ft. [19.8 m] in length.) These breakers can be added by

ordering with the suffix “YA” which includes the required copper lugs.

UL Naval Listed Circuit Breakers (UL 489 SB)

The standard for molded case circuit breakers which are intended or use aboard non-combatant and

auxiliary naval ships is included in Supplement SB to UL 489, “Standard for Molded Case Circuit

Breakers and Circuit Breaker Enclosures’’. The PowerPact H and J-frame circuit breakers are UL 489

SB are UL Naval Listed for use on vessels over 65 ft. (19.8 m) in length and under 65 feet (19.8 m) in

length. These breakers can be added by ordering with the suffix “YA” which includes the required

copper lugs.

American Bureau of Shipping (ABS)

The PowerPact H- and J-Frame circuit breakers are certified to ABSNVR (American Bureau of

Shipping - Naval Vessel Rules), for use on Naval vessels.

400 Hz Derating

Application of thermal-magnetic circuit breakers at frequencies above 60 Hz requires that special

consideration be given to the effects of high frequency on the circuit breaker characteristics. Thermal

and magnetic operations must be treated separately.

At frequencies below 60 Hz, the thermal rerating of thermal-magnetic circuit breakers is negligible.

However, at frequencies above 60 Hz, thermal rerating is required.

One of the most common high frequency applications is at 400 Hz.

For more information, refer to Data Bulletin 0100DB0101, Determining Current Carrying Capacity in

Special Applications.

Reverse Feeding of Circuit Breakers

The standard unit-mount H- and J-frame circuit breakers have sealed trip units and may be reverse

fed. See Tables 15–18 for catalog numbers.

Circuit breakers with field-interchangeable trip units (designated by the suffix T and labeled “LINE” and

“LOAD”) cannot be reverse fed. Neither can circuit breaker frames without terminations or trip units.

See Tables 19–21.

Operating Conditions

Temperature

To meet the requirements of the UL489 Standard, molded case circuit breakers are designed, built and

calibrated for use on 50/60 Hz ac systems in a 40°C (104°F) ambient environment. The thermal-magnetic

system is affected by changes in ambient temperature and the circuit breaker may require re-rating to suit

the environment it operates within. The circuit breaker may be operated at temperatures between -25°C

(-13°F) and +70°C (158° F). For temperature rerating tables, see Table 4 and Table 6.

NOTE: A special 50°C (122° F) Rating is available for special high ambient conditions (not UL listed).

Order by adding CA suffix to catalog number.

Altitude

Circuit breakers are suitable for use at altitudes up to 13,100 ft. (4000 m). For altitudes higher than

6560 ft. (2000 m), circuit breakers must be rerated as shown.

Atmospheric Conditions

The materials used in PowerPact circuit breakers will not support the growth of fungus and mold.

PowerPact® H- and J-Frame Circuit Breakers

Section 1—General Information

05/2009

UL 489 SC Listed 500 Vdc Circuit Breakers

The UL Listed thermal-magnetic molded case circuit breakers are

specifically designed for use on ungrounded dc systems having a

maximum short-circuit voltage of 500 Vdc or a maximum floating

(unloaded) voltage of 600 Vdc. The circuit breakers are suitable for

use only with UPS (uninterruptable power supplies) and

ungrounded systems. This two-level voltage rating allows these

circuit breakers to be applied to battery sources having a short-

circuit availability of 20,000 amperes at 500 Vdc.

These circuit breakers are UL Listed for the interrupting ratings

shown only if applied with three poles connected in series (series

connection is external to circuit breaker). See diagram below.

NOTE: Due to external series connection, I-Line® circuit breakers

are not available for this application.

Electronic Motor Circuit Protectors

PowerPact H- and J-frame Electronic Motor Circuit Protectors (MCP) are instantaneous-trip circuit

breakers. They are designed to offer short circuit protection and are National Electrical Code® (NEC®)

compliant when installed as part of a combination controller having motor overload protection. MCP

circuit breakers accept the same accessories and terminals as the equivalent thermal-magnetic circuit

breakers. (See Section 6, FIgures 46 and 47 for trip curves. See Section 3 for Accessories.)

The unique design of the PowerPact MCPs include two dials to allow quick setting adjustments based

on the characteristics of the motor.

The first dial allows for Full Load Amperes (FLA) adjustment across the range of the frame size.

The second dial selects the type of motor protection based on Automatic 1 for Standard Efficiency or

Automatic 2 for High Energy Efficient. When using the automatic settings the MCP microprocessor

automatically adjusts the trip settings for both current and time to align with the start-up characteristic

for the motor type, whether it is a standard or energy-efficient motor. This includes a dampening

means to accommodate a transient motor in-rush current without nuisance tripping of the circuit

breaker. Dial 2 also allows for traditional motor protection from 8 to 13 times the selected FLA.

The MCP dials are detented and allow the device to be set to specific trip values within a typical

accuracy range of +/-5%.

Full Load Amp Settings

1. Determine the motor’s full-load current by referring to the nameplate on the motor.

2. Set the trip range by turning the FLA dial to the setting closest to the motor’s full load current.

Automatic Protection Settings

The MCP microprocessor automatically adjusts the trip settings for both current and time to align with

the start-up characteristics for the motor type selected. This includes a dampening means to

accommodate a transient motor in-rush current without nuisance tripping of the circuit breaker.

Manual Protection Settings

The manual settings may be adjusted to multiples of current based on the dial setting for motor Full

Load Amps (FLA).

PowerPact® H- and J-Frame Circuit Breakers

Section 1—General Information

05/2009

Automatic Molded Case Switches

H-frame and J-frame circuit breakers are also available in automatic molded case switch construction.

Automatic switches are similar in construction to circuit breakers, except that the switches open

instantaneously at a factory-set non-adjustable trip point calibrated to protect only the molded case

switch itself.

Because of their molded case construction, they are more compact than conventional disconnect

switches and accept electrical accessories for added flexibility. Molded case switches are intended for

use as disconnect devices only.

UL 489 requires molded case switches to be protected by a circuit breaker or fuse of equivalent rating.

Molded case switches are labeled with their withstand ratings. The withstand rating of a switch is

defined as the maximum current at rated voltage that the molded case switch will withstand without

damage when protected by a circuit breaker or fuse with an equal or continuous current rating.

Section 2—Mounting and Connections

Unit-Mount Circuit Breakers

The standard lugs can be removed for the installation of compression-type lugs or bus connections. All

lugs are UL Listed for their proper application and marked for use with aluminum and copper (Al/Cu) or

copper only (Cu) conductors. Lugs suitable for copper and aluminum conductors are made of tin-

plated aluminum.

Mounting

H- and J-frame circuit breakers may be mounted vertically, horizontally or flat on their back without any

derating of characteristics.

Fixed-mounted H- and J-frame individually-mounted circuit breakers are supplied with two mounting

screws. These mounting screws are inserted through mounting holes molded into the circuit breaker

case and threaded into the mounting enclosure, rails or through the panel door for flush mounting.

A DIN rail mounting bracket (catalog no. S29305) is available for the H- and J-frame circuit breakers .

NOTE: DIN rail mounting is not compatible with motor operated applications.

Mechanical Lugs

Unit-mount H-frame and J-frame circuit breakers can be ordered with mechanical line and load side

lugs. The standard lugs can be removed for the installation of compression-type lugs or bus

connections. All lugs are UL Listed for their proper application and marked for use with aluminum and

copper (Al/Cu) or copper only (Cu) conductors. Lugs suitable for copper and aluminum conductors are

made of tin-plated aluminum. Lugs suitable for use with copper conductors only are made of copper.

Mechanical Lugs for the H- and J-frame circuit breakers lay on top of the circuit breaker terminals and

can be installed without the use of any tools. The lugs are held in place with snap features built into the

insulative retainer and are secured with the clamp force applied to the wire binding screw.

Mechanical lugs come in both aluminum and copper versions and are sold either factory installed or as

field installable kits.

PowerPact® H- and J-Frame Circuit Breakers

Section 2—Mounting and Connections

05/2009

Rear Connections

Rear connections are easily installed on the circuit breaker terminals.

The same connection may be installed flat, vertical or at a 45° angle with all

combinations possible. The circuit breaker is mounted on a backplate.

I-Line® Circuit breakers

H- and J-frame circuit breakers are available in I-Line construction for easy installation and removal in

I-Line panelboards and switchboards.

I-Line circuit breakers use “blow-on” type line side connectors. In case of a short circuit, increased

magnetic flux causes the plug-on connectors of the circuit breaker to tighten their grasp on the

panelboard or switchboard bus bars. The I-Line connectors and circuit breaker mounting bracket are

integral parts of I-Line circuit breakers and cannot be removed or replaced. I-Line circuit breakers

come with mechanical load side lugs.

Plug-In and Drawout Circuit Breakers

H- and J-frame circuit breakers are available in a plug-in and drawout construction.

Plug-In Circuit Breaker Mounting

The plug-in base is mounted through a front panel. The plug-in configuration makes it possible to:

•Extract and/or rapidly replace the circuit breaker without having to touch connections

•Allow for addition of future circuits at a later date

When the circuit breaker is in the connected position, the primary voltage is fed through the circuit

breaker by means of multiple finger disconnects. Control voltage of internal accessories is provided

through secondary disconnects.

Parts of a Plug-In Configuration

•Disconnects: Provides both primary and

secondary disconnect to the circuit

breaker.

•Safety Trip Interlock: The safety trip

causes automatic tripping if the circuit

breaker is ON before engaging or

withdrawing it; the safety trip does not

prevent the circuit breaker operation, even

when the circuit breaker is disconnected.

•Plug-in Base: The plug-in base provides

mounting through a front panel or mounting

on rails.

Drawout Circuit Breaker Mounting

The drawout-mounted chassis is Listed under UL file E113555 and Certified under CSA file LR69561.

The chassis is made up of two side plates installed on the base and two other plates mounted on the

circuit breaker.

Chassis Functions

All functions of the plug-in base, plus:

•Disconnected position: the power circuit is disconnected, the circuit breaker is simply “withdrawn”

and may still be operated (ON (I), OFF (O), push-to-trip)

•Circuit breaker may be locked using one to three padlocks–padlock diameters 0.19–0.31 in.

• Bell alarm indicates that the circuit breaker has tripped due to an overload, short circuit or ground fault, the

operation of a shunt trip or undervoltage trip or the “push-to-trip” button

• Resets when the circuit breaker is reset

Overcurrent Trip Switch (SDE)

• Indicates that the circuit breaker has tripped due to an overload, short circuit or ground fault

• Resets when the circuit breaker is reset

The above auxiliary switches are also available in low-level versions capable of switching very low loads (e.g.,

for controlling PLCs or electronic circuits).

Installation &

Connection

• The OF, SD and SDE switches snap into cavities behind the front accessory cover of the circuit breaker

• One model serves for all indication functions depending on where it is fitted in the circuit breaker

• The SDE function of a circuit breaker equipped with a thermal-magnetic trip unit requires the SDE adapter

Standards

• The internal accessories comply with requirements of Underwriters Laboratories® Inc. (UL®)

• UL 489 and Canadian Standard Association C22.2 No. 5-02 Standards

• All internal accessories are Listed for fixed installation per UL file E103955 and Certified under CSA file LR 69561

PowerPact® H- and J-Frame Circuit Breakers

Section 3—Accessories

05/2009

Shunt Trip (MX) and Undervoltage Trip (MN) Switches

A voltage release can be used to trip the circuit breaker via a control signal.

Applications

Shunt trip (MX)

• Trips the circuit breaker when the control voltage rises above 70% of its rated voltage

• Impulse type 20 ms or maintained control signals

• AC shunt trips are suitable for ground fault protection when combined with a Class I ground fault

sensing element

Undervoltage trip (MN)

• Trips the circuit breaker when the control voltage drops below a tripping threshold

• Drops out between 35% and 70% of the rated voltage

• Circuit breaker closing is possible only if the voltage exceeds 85% of the rated voltage

• Permanent type

• If an undervoltage condition exists, operation of the closing mechanism of the circuit breaker will not

permit the main contacts to touch, even momentarily. This is commonly called “Kiss Free”

Installation and

Connection

• Accessories are common to H- and J-frame circuit breakers and snap into cavities under the front

accessory cover of the circuit breaker

• Each terminal may be connected by one #18–#14 AWG (1.0–2.5 mm2) stranded copper wire

Operation

• The circuit breaker must be reset locally after being tripped by shunt trip or undervoltage trip (MN or MX)

• MN or MX tripping has priority over manual (or motor operator) closing; in the presence of a standing trip

order such an action does not result in any closing, even temporarily, of the main contacts

• Endurance: 50% of the rated mechanical endurance of the circuit breaker for circuit breakers

Earth Leakage Module (ELM) for PowerPact H- and J-Frame MCCBs

The Earth Leakage Module (ELM) is an add-on module which, when connected to a PowerPact H- or

J-frame MCCB, provides low-level ground-fault sensing and ground-fault relay functions.

Because these ELMs are highly sensitive (30 mA to 3 A), they provide much greater protection than

GFMs (20 Amps to 200 Amps sensitivity). The ELMs provide greater protection of control circuits and

other sensitive equipment. The associated circuit breaker must have a 48 Vdc shunt trip), which may

be field-installed (kit S29392) or factory-installed (suffix –SP) in the H- or J-Frame circuit breaker.

The add-on Earth Leakage Module (ELM) features:

•Adjustable ground-fault pickup levels as low as 30 mA

•Adjustable ground-fault time delays from instantaneous to 500 msec

(time delay can be applied to any setting)

•Integral ground fault push-to-test feature

•Ground-fault indicator; pop-up button for local status and contacts for remote indication (to be used

only with the tripping option)

•All ELMs are supplied for I-Line® mounting and are easily convertible to unit-mount by removing

the I-Line mounting feet

•Three poles; 240 to 600 Vac maximum: 3-phase, 3-wire (no neutral) and 1-phase, 2-wire

applications

•Line-power obtained through internal bus to provide power for electronics, shunt trip, and integral

test feature.

•A shunt trip is required in the circuit breaker; it may be field-installed or factory-installed in the

PowerPact H and J circuit breakers.

•UL 1053 – Ground-fault Sensing and Relaying Equipment

Interlocking Systems

Interlocking of Circuit Breakers With Toggle Control

The toggle interlock system can receive one or two padlocks with diameters of 0.19–0.31 in. (5–8 mm).

Both interlocked circuit breakers should be fixed version or plug-in version. Two sliding interlocking

bars can be used to interlock three circuit breakers installed side-by-side, in which case one circuit

breaker is in the ON (I) position and the two others in the OFF (O) position. (Kit S29354. Not available

for 2P HD and HG devices.)

Interlocking Two Circuit Breakers with Rotary Handles

The rotary handles are padlocked with the devices in the OFF (I) position. The interlock mechanism

inhibits the two devices from being closed (ON/I) at the same time, but allows for both devices to be

open (OFF/O) simultaneously. (Kit S29369. Not available for 2P HD and HG devices.)

Standard Motor Operator Wiring (Factory Wiring Configuration)

A circuit breaker may be configured for remote operations. Remotely operated circuit breakers are

factory wired for the power supply to the motor being switched by the overcurrent trip switch. This

prevents the circuit breaker from being remotely reset after an overload fault as a precaution against

closing on a fault.

Remote Reset Wiring Without Overcurrent Trip Switch Protection

To configure circuit breaker for remote operation without overcurrent switch protection, follow the

wiring diagram below.

POWERPACT H/J FRAME MOTOR CIRCUIT PROTECTOR

WITH MANUAL SETTINGS

CHARACTERISTIC TRIP CURVE NO. 045-1

The time-current curve information represents the typical response and is to

be used for application and coordination purposes only.

Curves apply from -30C to +60C ambient temperature.

Notes:

• The MCP is an instantaneous only breaker that detects the peaks of the

current. In order to trip within the specified time-current levels, consecutive

peaks of the current must exceed the selected setting’s threshold.

• Total clearing times shown include the response times of the trip unit, the

circuit breaker opening, and the extinction of the current.

• The time-current curve represents single-phase to three-phase fault currents.
