Plug-in Circuit Breaker Installation

CAUTION During circuit breaker installation, carefully align the breaker alarm terminals with the alarm terminal board to avoid breaker terminal damage.

1)Remove the circuit breaker cover panel and the plastic cover(s) from the desired location(s).

2)Install the circuit breaker(s) by snapping the top terminal onto the upper bus bar and rotating the unit down until the second terminal snaps onto the breaker termination post as shown in Figure 3.6-3The breaker alarm terminals are designed to make contact with the alarm terminal board as the breaker is snapped into place.

3)Reattach the circuit breaker cover panel.

NOTE: Circuit breaker alarm contacts close when the circuit breaker is tripped but not when it is turned OFF.

Load Cable Size Considerations

The DC load cable(s) should be sized sufficiently large to limit the voltage drop from the MX28B DC power plant to the loads per system design requirements. The cable(s) must also carry the full load current during battery operation. During battery operation the voltage will be lower and for constant power loads, therefore the current will typically be higher. If assistance is required to determine the necessary cables for the application, contact your sales representative or APC.
