Compactness with increased operational capacity
The smallest depth in the world with a 1 second Icw at 65 kA
TemPower 2 The innovative design of the TemPower 2 double break contacts system has eliminated any need for an intermediate flexible conductor in the moving contacts assembly. The result is a more compact main contact design allowing the TemPower 2 ACB to have the worlds smallest depth for a 65 kA, 1 second Icw ACB. Switchboard design benefits in two ways especially, a more space saving ACB, plus a lower temperature rise as result of fewer moving parts associated with the double break contacts assembly. The TemPower 2 ACB has more than 20 design patents registered covering its unique main contacts design. TemPower
345 mm 458 mm
The height and depth dimensions are identical in all sizes up to 3200 A, with only the width varying according to the amp rating. There are two common width or frame sizes from 800-2000 A and from 2500-3200 A. The panel cut out size is the same for all sizes of the TemPower 2 ACB, thus simplifying fitting a variety of breaker sizes into a switchboard. The 4000A TemPower 2 ACB has an increased width & depth, while the height is common with other sizes. Maximum power from minimum volume was central to the design specification. With a depth of 345 mm, the TemPower 2 is one of the smallest ACBs in the world in terms of overall dimensions and one of the smallest when it comes to depth. TemPower 2 ACBs are available with draw-out carriages, with either front or rear terminal connections. A front connected ACB is especially suitable where a switchboard has less depth available.

1 Features
Intelligent design
Increased accessibility from the front
Connection to the main circuit (for front connections)
For easy wiring access, control voltage, auxiliary and position switch terminals are all mounted at the front on the ACB body for easy access. Due to a general increase in the level of line harmonics in modern power distribution systems, the neutral phase is fully rated as standard.
Connection to the control circuit
Replacement of internal parts

(Removing the front cover enables replacement of internal parts.)
Manual operation
Breaker fixing bolt (optional)
Draw-out operation
No extra arc space required, allowing vertical stacking

No extra arc space required
Main contact replacement

Fixed and moving main contacts can easily be replaced in the field, thus prolonging the life on the circuit breaker. Changing each pole takes around 15 minutes.
The TemPower 2 ACB dissipates all arc energy within its unique DoubleBreak arc chamber. The internal energy dissipation within the ACB allows the clearance distance of the ACB to nearby earthed metal to be zero. Temperature rise constraints aside, TemPower 2 ACBs can be stacked with no arc space clearance being required. This will assist in minimising switchboard height, and generally saving costs.

1 Features
High performance and reliability
Very fast interruption by the DoubleBreak system
The uniqueDoubleBreak main contacts system ensures very fast interruption of short circuit currents with a maximum clearing time of 30 msec. The double contacts also share the arc energy, which substantially reduces main contact wear. DoubleBreak main contacts allow reverse power connection.
Simplified and stronger main circuit contact assembly

There are no clamp screws or flexible leads in the main circuit contact units. This substantially enhances the durability of the main circuit contact units and improves the ACBs reliability during its ON-OFF operations.
AGR2 overcurrent relay closing/tripping circuitry - no mechanical contacts

When advanced TemPower 2 AGR21 or 22 OCRs are used, the internal closing/tripping operation circuits employ electronic semiconductors for all switching. This ensures both longer life and increased reliability for the OCRs internal circuits.
Fully rated Neutral (4th) pole

Devices such as UPS power backup systems and variable speed motor controllers, which utilise inverters, generate a significant amount of line harmonics. Because these types of devices have become so common in recent years, the amount of harmonics generated in the average distribution network has increased significantly. One result of this is higher neutral currents. To meet this requirement the new TemPower 2 ACB has a 100 % fully rated neutral pole is standard.

1 Features
High performance and reliability
New Selectivity capabilities
Terasaki are so concerned about selectivity that all AGR overcurrent relays have LSI characteristics as standard. This provides an adjustable time delay on overload (L) and also the I2t ramp characteristic (S). As shown (see diagram) these are essential to provide selectivity when grading with other protective devices such as downstream fuses and upstream relays. The standard LSI curve provides more than five million combinations of unique time current characteristics. Unlike the previous TemPower AT series, TemPower 2 AR ACBs have an identical rated breaking capacity, rated short-time withstand current, and rated latching current. This means that if the TemPower 2 OCR has its instantaneous trip function de-activated, leaving only the long time and short time functions, full selectivity with other devices will still be achieved.

Reversed power trip function

(S-characteristic) This feature provides additional protection when paralleling generators. The AGR21/22 OCR for generator protection with the reverse power trip function, negates the need for installation and wiring in an external reverse power relay. This feature is available using an AGR2 OCR with a special generator S type characteristic only.

Two channel pre-trip alarm function (S-characteristic)

This function can be used to monitor and switch on additional power backup to feed critical circuits. For example, the function can be set so that when a pre-trip alarm is activated, an emergency generator starts to ensure a constant supply. This feature is only available on some AGR21/22 OCR models with a generator S characteristic refer features table pages 40-41.
Adjustable undervoltage trip function (UVT)

Available as a fixed type, or with adjustable voltage pick up and an adjustable time delay. 3 Phase, Phase failure protection is also available. AGR11/21/22 OCRs refer features table pages 40-41.
N-phase protection function (optional)

In 3-phase, 4-wire systems that contain harmonic distortion, the 3rd harmonic may cause large currents to flow through the neutral conductor. The N-phase protection function prevents the neutral conductor from sustaining damage or burnout due to these large currents. Available in all OCRs except for generator S characteristic types.
Advanced LCD display, Overcurrent relay: type AGR-22

The AGR-22 OCR comes standard with an LCD display. It can monitor and indicate phase currents, voltages, power, energy, power factor, frequency, and more. Fault Analysis information can also be displayed. For features refer page 38.

Types of mounting & connections
Draw-out position indicators
This type of ACB consists of a breaker body and a draw-out carriage. The carriage is fixed into a switchboard, and the breaker body can be inserted or removed from the carriage via the racking in and out mechanism. There are stages or body positions in the withdrawing out process. They are: CONNECTED, TEST, ISOLATED, and WITHDRAWN. The switchboard panel door can be kept closed during the CONNECTED, TEST, and ISOLATED stages (shut-in three positions).
Draw-out ACB Connection options

Draw-out operation release button The position indicator includes a safety release button which needs to be depressed to allow ACB insertion or withdrawing from the carriage. When inserting the ACB, the racking-in action will be prevented once the ACB reaches the test position indicator. To allow further racking in, the release button must be pressed. Similarly, when withdrawing the ACB, further withdrawing will be prevented once the ACB reaches the test position. The button must then be pressed in to allow complete ACB withdrawal to fully isolated position.
Carriage connection terminals
Both the main and control circuits are connected to the main power supply for normal service.
Three types of main circuit terminal arrangements are available. They are; vertical terminals, horizontal terminals, and front connect terminals. Additionally combinations of vertical or horizontal terminal arrangements can be specified for the line and load sides. Unless otherwise specified by the user, horizontal terminals are standard on types AR208S, AR212S, AR216S and AR220S ACBs on both the line and load sides. Vertical terminals are standard on AR325S, AR332S and AR440S. Only vertical terminals are available for AR440S.
The main power circuit is isolated, however the auxiliary control circuits remain connected. This position permits operation testing without the need to open the switchboard door.
Horizontal terminals Front connections
Vertical terminals Both the main and auxiliary control circuits are fully isolated. The switchboard door does not need to be opened.
Control circuit terminals
Terminal blocks (for auxiliary switches, position switches, and control circuits) are positioned on the top of the ACB front panel and can be easily accessed from the front for wiring purposes. M4 screw terminals are supplied on all control circuit devices. 0.5 mm-thick tab terminals are available on request.
The breaker body is fully withdrawn from the draw-out cradle. The switchboard door can now be opened so the breaker body can be fully withdrawn from the draw-out cradle.
Push-tab terminals (Optional)

Main circuit safety shutters
Main circuit safety shutters automatically conceal any live main circuit contacts inside a draw-out carriage when the ACB is drawn out. Both top and bottom shutters operate independently and can be separately padlocked in the closed position after a breaker has been withdrawn or if a carriage a spare or unoccupied. Up to three padlocks (with 6 mm hasp) can be installed on each side using the padlocking option. (Padlock not supplied) When an ACB is out of its carriage, any main power circuit safety shutters fitted will automatically spring close. Once the shutters are closed it is difficult to open them by hand. However the shutters can be manually unlocked and held open by activating spring levers near the shutters. This shutter defeat feature can be used during main contact inspection or maintenance.
Control circuit safety shutter

When an ACB is withdrawn out of a carriage, a control circuit safety shutter spring shuts over the live control circuit contacts.
Breaker fixing bolts

Breaker fixing bolts are available to hold the breaker body securely within a draw-out carriage. Fixing bolts should be used if the ACB is being subjected to strong vibration, or rolling conditions typically encountered during Marine (shipping) applications.
Test jumper
The test jumper is a plug-in extension lead, which allows ON-OFF tests on all the TemPower 2 series ACBs with the breaker body drawn out from the draw-out carriage. The standard jumper cable is 5 m long.
Position padlock lever*

The ACBs position padlock lever prevents the breaker body from being accidentally drawn out. When the position padlock lever is in the pulled-out position, it can lock the breaker body in any one of the CONNECTED, TEST, or ISOLATED positions the user chooses. Up to three padlocks with a 6 mm hasp can be installed.
Lifter
A range of lifters is available from NHP to allow easy and safe transportation or installation of the ACB. A drop prevention mechanism is standard.
Mal-insertion prevention device

It is possible to physically place a TemPower 2 ACB body into any carriage designed to suit that frame size. Because of this, there is a chance that a different specification ACB may be inserted into a draw-out carriage not intended for it. By using the mal-insertion prevention device option, this possibility is eliminated. This device is capable of distinguishing between up to nine different ACB bodies.

Door interlock
The door interlock prevents the switchboard door from being opened unless the breaker body is in the ISOLATED position. Only when the draw-out handle is removed from the ACB when the ACB is in the ISOLATED position, is the door interlock released and the switchboard door allowed to open. When inserting the ACB back into the carriage, the switchboard door must be closed once the breaker is in the ISOLATED position. When the door interlock is supplied a special draw-out handle is also supplied. Refer page 56 for draw out handle details.

ACB Closing
Pressing the ON button on the ACB closes the ACB.

ACB Opening
Pressing the OFF button on the ACB opens the ACB. The ACB cannot be closed while the OFF button continues to be pressed.
Motor charging operation

For this type of ACB, the closing springs are charged by means of an internally mounted motor. ON/OFF operation of the ACB can be performed remotely. A manual charging mechanism is also fitted to facilitate inspection or maintenance work.
Charging the closing springs
A motor is used to charge the closing springs. When the closing springs are released to close the ACB, they are automatically recharged by the motor for the next closing operation.
ACB Closing
Turning on a remote ON switch enables the ACB to be remotely closed. Anti-pumping mechanism Even if the ON switch is kept on, the ACB closing operation is performed only once. To close the ACB again, turn off the ON switch to allow the motor to charge the springs, then activate the ON switch again. If ON and OFF signals are simultaneously given to the ACB, the ON signal is ignored.
ACB Opening

If the motor, shunt trip or UVT supply voltages are different, more than one power supply will be required. Refer to the wiring diagram on pages 76 and 77 for wiring details. For ACB operation with an AGR2 OCR either a shunt trip or UVT can be used to open or trip the ACB. If an AGR2 OCR that contains an internal UVT is used, only one power supply is required for both. If an external UVT or a shunt trip is used, more than one power supply may be required if the voltages are different. Refer wiring diagram on pages 78 and 79 for wiring details.
Step-down transformer (external)

The maximum rated control voltage applicable to the operation power supply is AC 240 V. If the only available supply voltage is higher or lower than 240 V AC, then a step-down transformer is needed. Contact NHP for details or for transformer requirements.

UVT Under voltage trip - 1 phase, fixed type
Fixed Undervoltage Trip (UVT) - for use with AGR-11 OCRs or Non-Auto ACBs (no OCRs)
The TemPower 2 fixed undervoltage trip (UVT) automatically trips the ACB when the undervoltage trip device control voltage drops below a predetermined value. Only when the control voltage is restored to a value equal to or greater than the pickup value, can the ACB be closed. 5) The fixed type UVT consists of a trip control device and a tripping mechanism. Two types of UVT are available. The AUR-1BS is an instantaneous tripping type, while the AUR-1BD type has a fixed 500 ms time delay. Remote opening of the circuit breaker by the UVT is possible by connection of a normally open push button across terminals 24 and 30 (refer wiring diagram). Pages 76-77.

General functions
The TemPower 2 AGR-L AGR-R AGR-S over-current relay provides flexible protection functions within 3 different relay types: L = General / Industrial & transformer protection R = Standard Inverse, Very Inverse, & Extremely Inverse curve S = Generator / Marine protection type
In terms of features other than characteristic curves, AGR OCRs can be split into 3 general categories: Standard type: AGR-11 (L, R or S curve) Advanced type: AGR-21 (L, R or S curve) Advanced LCD display type: AGR-22 (L, R or S curve) AGR OCRs contain many overlapping features, meaning an OCR can be chosen for a particular application.
Protective functions
Adjustable long time-delay trip function LT RMS sensing is used to accurately read through distorted waveforms. In addition to the standard L and S-characteristics, the R-characteristic is available with five selectable characteristics in the long time delay trip region. The R-characteristic can be used to provide selectivity with other devices such as circuit breakers or fuses. (refer page 10). HOT start mode (applicable to the L-characteristic) HOT or COLD start mode is user-selectable. In response to an overload, when the OCR is the HOT start mode, the OCR operates faster than when in the COLD start setting. This OCR when switched to start in HOT mode provides extra protection, because it takes into account that the load may be already heated and the greater level of existing heat stress in the system. Adjustable short time-delay trip function ST The ST delay trip function has a "definite time delay characteristic" and "ramp characteristic". These characteristics are switch selectable on or off. This ramp characteristic provides useful adjustability when seeking to obtain selectivity between an upstream ACB and downstream circuit breakers or fuses. In OCRs with an L/R characteristic, when a fault current exceeds 10 times the rated current (In), the ramp mode will be changed to the definite time mode. (5 times rated current for "S" type OCRs)
Adjustable instantaneous trip function INST/MCR There are two modes of instantaneous tripping. They are the INST and the MCR setting. Either function can be selected by operating a switch on the OCR. The INST (instantaneous) trip function trips the ACB when a short circuit current exceeds its pickup current setting, irrespective of whether the ACB is closing or has already closed. Alternatively, the Making Current Release (MCR) trips the ACB when only if the short circuit current exceeds the pickup current setting during the closing operation. After the ACB is closed the MCR is inoperative. Note: The MCR requires separate control power. Should this fail, the MCR will be inoperative. Power must either be returned to the MCR or the OCR must be switched to the INST trip position to obtain any instantaneous trip function.
34
PTA, GF, RPT, NP
Adjustable pre-trip alarm function PTA Reverse power trip function RPT
A single channel pre-trip alarm function provides an alarm signal via the alarm contact (1N/O-contact). This signal occurs when the load current exceeding a pre-determined value lasts for a pre-determined time. The pre-trip alarm is automatically reset when the load current drops back to the pre-determined value. A 2-channel pre-trip alarm function is also available for generator S-characteristic OCRs. This function can be used to adjust load feeding by order of priority. Note; both 1 & 2 channel types require a control power source.
Ground fault trip function GF
(For AGR-21 and AGR-22 only.) The RPT function protects 3-phase generators running in parallel against reverse power. The RPT pickup current can be set at any one of seven increments from 4 % to 10 % of the generators rated power. The applicable rated voltages are AC100 120 V, AC200 - 240 V, and AC380 - 460 V. The RPT function comes usually with LED operation indication and contact output. Notes: 1: CT for RPT is not available for AR440S, 4000 A ACBs. 2. Indent item. Contact NHP for details.
N-phase protection function NP
The GF pickup current can be set between 10 % and 100 % of the CT rated primary current [ICT]. Altering ramp characteristics: The ramp and definite time characteristics are switch selectable. The GF trip function comes into operation with the definite time characteristic when the load current reaches 100 % or more of the CT rated primary current [ICT]. The GF trip function is factoryset to a definite time characteristic. When using a 3-pole ACB in a 3-phase, 4-wire system, an external neutral CT for the neutral line must be used, refer page 35. Notes: 1: The GF trip function comes with operation output contacts and indication LEDs. If only ground fault indication is required, but no ACB tripping function, please specify at the time of ordering.
This NP function is available on 4-pole ACBs and prevents the neutral conductor from suffering damage or burnout due to overcurrent. The NP trip pickup current can be set between 40 % and 100 % of the OCR rated primary current for OCRs with either L or R-characteristics. The pick-up current is factory set to a value specified at the time of ordering. Notes: 1: The NP trip function comes as standard with LED operation indication and an output contact. The NP trip pick-up CURRENT and trip TIME settings are a function of the position of the OCRs LT trip function dial. Note. The N phase protection option is not available for generator "S" type OCRs. 2: Indent item. Contact NHP for details.
35
UVT - 3 phase adjustable, HEAT, NON setting, fail-safe feature
Adjustable undervoltage trip function UVT
(For AGR-21 and AGR-22 non-communication models only.) AGR21/22 Phase failure protection is achieved by connecting and monitoring all 3 phases. The UVTs are available in 4 models that can monitor different line voltages. They are: 100/120 V AC, 200/240 V AC, 380/460 V AC, and 24 V DC The UVT function trips the ACB when the UVT control voltage drops to a value equal to 65 % of the rated value. The operating time can be set at any one of ten settings: Instantaneous trip through to a 1s delay. The ACB can be closed 2 seconds after the UVT control voltage has returned to the pick-up voltage. Notes: 1: UVT control power is shared by the reverse power trip function (if fitted). 2: The UVT has LED operation indication and a contact output. 3: It should be noted that the AGR11 OCR UVT option provides a UVT that responds to a control voltage signal obtained from any one of 3 phases, rather than by monitoring all 3 phases. As mentioned above, AGR21/22 OCRs will provide UVT detection for all 3 phases. 4: For "fixed" undervoltage trips as used on ACBs with AGR11 OCRs, or Non Auto ACBs (no OCR fitted) Refer to page 33.
NON setting and fail-safe feature

NON setting By setting certain OCR setting dials to the "NON" position the corresponding protection functions can be rendered inoperative. Those functions are: LT, ST, INST/MCR, and GF. The appropriate use of NON operation setting can be a useful means for obtaining selectivity. Fail-safe feature TemPower 2 OCRs come with fail-safe features if the OCR setting dials are improperly set to a NON operation position. If the ST and INST trip pickup current setting dials are both set to NON, the fail-safe mechanism will activate the INST trip function to trip the ACB when a fault current equal to or more than 16 times the rated current [In] flows through the ACB. If the ST and MCR trip pickup current setting dials are both set to NON, the fail safe mechanism will activate the ST delay trip function to trip the ACB when a fault current equal to or more than 10 times (5 times for generator protection) the rated current [In] flows through the ACB.

Usage instruction
Function: Checking the current and time settings for an overcurrent tripping relay Long time delay trip Ground fault trip
Short time delay trip Instantaneous trip Pre-trip alarm
Applicable models: All models of OCRs for AR type ACBs Since an OCR can be powered from the checker, the OCR can be measured even if no control power is applied to the OCR. The connection with an OCR can be made easily using a single connector. The function, output phase, output voltage, and trip signal for the OCR during the testing are indicated on the LCD and with the LEDs. All the operations can be performed easily using pushbutton switches. Function of each switch The function of each switch is described below: Fig. 1 illustrates the front panel of the checker. The number preceding each switch corresponds to the number indicated in this figure. 1 POWER switch This switch is used to turn ON/OFF the checker. When the built-in battery is active, the switch is automatically turned OFF (auto-OFF function) after it has not been pressed for 1 minute or more. 2 SELECT FUNCTION switch LT (long time delay trip: pre-trip alarm) INST (instantaneous trip) ST (short time delay trip)
4 and 5 SIG. ADJUST UP/DOWN switches These switches are used to increase/decrease the output voltage value. A rough adjustment can be made by holding down each switch and fine tuning can be performed by pressing each switch. The output value can be adjusted during output. 6 OUTPUT switch This switch is used to turn ON/OFF the voltage output. When a voltage value is output, the voltage value indicated on the LCD changes from a blinking state to an illumination state. 4.2 Measurement procedure in the ST mode

3 Pole ACBs When using a 3-pole ACB with ground fault protection function to protect a 3-phase, 4-wire system against ground fault, an external current transformer (CT) must be installed for the neutral line. NHP can provide this neutral line CT as an option. Refer below for types and dimensions. 4 Pole ACBs 4-pole ACBs will have a similar measuring CT installed in place of the neutral line CT in an ACB when the ground fault protection option is fitted.

Auxiliary switches, On - Off Cycle counter
ON-OFF cycle counter
The ON-OFF cycle counter is a mechanical 5-digit readout that shows the number of ON-OFF cycles the ACB has performed. Counter readings serve as a guide for maintenance or inspection.
Auxiliary switches
TemPower 2 ACB auxiliary switches operate during the ACBs ON/OFF operation. Connections to the auxiliary switches are made via screw terminals. Push-on Tab terminal auxiliaries are available as an option. TemPower 2 auxiliary switches have change-over2) contacts and are available for general or low voltage/current applications. "General application" auxiliaries have silver plated contacts, while "low voltage/current" types have gold plated contacts. The auxiliaries come in various configurations from 4C to 10C (4-10 changeover contacts). Low voltage/current contacts 3) are available as 3C only, but always include either 4C or 7C general application contacts. For example: a 4C general application + 3C low voltage/current type is all contained within the same contact housing.

Ordering: depending on whether auxiliaries are required, any one of the above types can be specified when ordering.
Notes: 1) 2 ) Suited to electronic circuits. The change-over contact configuration has 3 terminals, one of which is a common terminal. A moving contact moves between the two other terminals providing either an open or closed contact. Different configurations of auxiliaries containing low voltage/current contacts are available on indent. Refer NHP .

Notes: Any contact chatter due the operation of the On/Off operation of the ACB will be less than 20 ms duration. For reliable auxiliary contact operation the voltage ratings should not be exceeded. The auxiliary switch operation sequence for a withdrawable ACB. 1. CONNECTED position - Both the main and control circuits are connected to the main power supply for normal service. 2. TEST position - The main power circuit is isolated, however the auxiliary control circuits remain connected. This position permits operation testing without the need to open the switchboard door. 3. ISOLATED position - Both the main and auxiliary control circuits are fully isolated. The switchboard door does not need to be opened. 4. WITHDRAWN position - The switchboard door can now be opened so the breaker body can be fully withdrawn from the draw-out cradle.

Key locks, key interlocks
Key lock
Two types of key locks are available, one that can lock the ACB in the closed position, and another for the open position. When an ACB is fitted with a key lock, the operator cannot operate the ACB unless using a matched key.
Key interlock
Key interlocking is a system of interlocking between ACBs, with each ACB fitted with a key lock designed to lock the ACB in the OFF (contacts open) position.
A key must be inserted to release the lock before
the ACB can be closed.

The ACB must be opened and locked in the OFF
position before the key can be removed.

The other ACB that is not locked OFF can now be
closed. By utilising the ACB lock OFF key lock feature, and by providing users with a limited number of keys, this method by default provides an effective and reliable interlock system. Using the same keys also allows interlocking between an ACB and other devices (such as a switchboard door).
Key types
NHP can fit the following lock types to TemPower 2 ACBs: > L & F / Fortress > Ronis > Castell Unless specified otherwise, NHP will supply ACBs fitted with the Fortress type H31 lock device. A key is included. Multiple numbers of keys can be supplied, or even no keys on request. NHP can also supply locks keyed to specific codes on request. Note: Key locks, Off Padlocks and Key Interlocks occupy the same mounting space on an ACB. Therefore only one can be fitted at any time. Off padlock page 56.

Interlocking - Cable type, Rod type
Mechanical interlock
TemPower 2 mechanical interlocks employ either cable or rod systems to provide positive interlocking between two or three ACBs. To further enhance the system, electrical interlocking can be used. Mechanical interlock types
2 way cable interlock for 2 ACBs 3 way cable interlock for 3 ACBs 2 way vertical side mounting rod interlock for 2 ACBs 3 way vertical, available as either a rod or cable type for 3 ACBs
CABLE Interlocking horizontal, vertical or diagonal
Cable interlocking is the most flexible means of interlocking ACBs in terms of combinations and mounting flexibility. Cable Interlocking is possible between any 3 or 4 pole frame size or combination of different frame sizes within the TemPower 2 range. This is achieved through the use of cable as the form of interlock. ACBs can be mounted diagonally, horizontally or vertically. Cable interlocking can be used to obtain a variety of switching combinations between 2 or 3 ACBs. The simplest is between two ACBs using 2 cables. Either ACB "X" or "Y" can be closed. (Type C) In the case of 3 ACBs, called "X", "Y" and "Z", by using 4 cables, interlocking can be obtained between X and Y, Y and Z, but not X and Z. (Type A) By using 6 cables, interlocking can be obtained between "X", "Y" or "Z" in any combination. (Type B) Distance between ACBs & Cable length Cable lengths, or the distance the ACBs are apart can be specified by customer order. Special pre-specified lengths can range from 1 m up to 7 m. Otherwise NHP will supply a kit consisting of two 3 meter cable lengths that can be cut to the required length by the user. Multiple cable quantities can be ordered for A & B interlocking. Bend radius The bend radius it the minimum diameter bend allowed that maintains functionality. If the bend is less than 150 mm, the cable can jam against the outer protective sleeve. The cable consists of a solid stainless steel wire inside a protective sleeve.
Vertical ROD interlocking
Rod interlocking is possible between any 3 or 4 pole frame size or combination of different frame sizes within the TemPower 2 range. Rod interlocking is for mounting ACBs vertically above one another only. The minimum pitch can be 550 mm, the maximum 1200 mm. For any two ACBs that require an exact pitch distance, please specify when ordering. Rod interlocking can be used to obtain interlocking between 2 or 3 ACBs. The simplest is between two ACBs. Either ACB "A" or "B" can be closed. In the case of 3 ACBs, called "A", "B" and "C", interlocking can be obtained between A and B, C and B, but not A and C. Contact NHP for additional details.

Lifting plate, ON-OFF button cover, door flange, control circuit terminal cover, IP cover
Lifting plate
Lifting plates are detachable tools that can be used to lift a breaker body into or out of a draw-out carriage when the ACB is in the fully withdrawn position. Lifting plates available on request.
Control circuit terminal cover

A control circuit terminal cover protects the terminal blocks for auxiliary switches, position switches, and control circuits from being accidentally touched from the front, thus enhancing safety. Terminal covers are supplied as standard.
Door flange
A door flange is an aesthetically attractive frame that covers around the cutout a switchboard door or panel that the front of the ACB protrudes through. Two types of door flange are available, an IP 20 type and an IP 41 type which includes a gasket. Door flanges are an option.
Note: A door flange cannot be used with a door interlock.
ON-OFF button cover

An ON-OFF button cover prevents inadvertent or unauthorised operation of the ACBs ON or OFF button. It can be locked with up to three padlocks with 6 mm hasp. Padlocks are not supplied. Button covers are supplied fitted to ACBs as standard.
Door flange dimensions (mm) & mounting detail
IP cover
An IP cover is a heavy-duty clear plastic assembly with a hinged door that provides an IP 55 grade of protection. The IP cover door is held closed by 3 rotary latches, with each able to accept a single padlock with a 6 mm diameter hasp. The IP cover is mounted to a switchboard door or panel, which is to be opened to allow the ACB to be inserted or fully withdrawn. Once fitted, the IP cover becomes an integral part of the switchboard door or panel, and will remain in place at all times irrespective of whether the ACB is in the fully inserted in the CONNECTED, TEST or ISOLATED positions. IP covers are an option.
Note: Refer page 75 for IP cover dimensions

OFF padlock, interpole barrier, Internally stored drawout handle
OFF padlock
This optional feature permits the ACB to be padlocked in the OFF position. A maximum of three padlocks with 6 mm hasp can be fitted. Padlocking is possible only when the ACBs ON-OFF indicator shows OFF. When the ACB is padlocked in the OFF position, both the ACBs manual and electrical closing operations become inoperative, though charging of the closing spring by manually operating the charging lever or by the motor is still possible. The OFF padlock is installed in the same position on the front of the breakers that is occupied by a Fortress or Castell lock, and does not replace the "position padlock" which is standard on TemPower 2 ACBs irrespective.
Interpole barrier
The rear connection inter-pole barrier set prevents a possible short-circuit due to foreign objects entering between the poles of the main circuit terminals or between the line and load ends, thus enhancing operational reliability of the ACB. This barrier cannot be fitted to ACBs that are supplied with front connections or a reverse power trip function. Interpole barriers are optional.
Internally stored draw-out handle

This handle consists of 3 attached pivoted metal sections, meaning the handle is flexible. The handle is normally stored inserted inside the ACB. While normally supplied with the door interlocking feature, the handle can be supplied as an option on request. This handle can be a replacement for the standard fixed handle supplied with all ACB bodies.

Earthing ACBs
An ACB used as a mains earthing device
An earthing ACB is primarily a safety device for personnel performing electrical maintenance. When live main switchboards or associated downstream distribution systems require maintenance or modification, it is a critical requirement that safe working conditions exist for people, and that electrical equipment is protected. Application During a typical maintenance period, the switchboard section being worked on will be isolated, or perhaps the whole switchboard. There is always a risk that an unauthorised person may switch the power supply back ON, which could have lethal results. Even though it is possible to lock switching devices OFF to ensure that voltage is not applied to the circuit section being maintained, absolute safety can be maximised only if that particular section is SOLIDLY EARTHED during the maintenance period. A safe and relatively economical way to apply system earthing during routine maintenance is via a dedicated ACB that acts as an earthing path. The ACB would have a short circuit rating equal to the system potential fault level. An earthing ACB effectively replaces the use of not so reliable safety devices such as cables with Alligator clips etc being used to connect busbar and other live parts to earth during maintenance. To further clarify the point, an earthing ACB does not switch the main power off. Power is already switched off further upstream. An earthing ACB simply acts as a solid, reliable, path for a potential earth fault current. Terasaki have designed a range of TemPower 2 ACBs for system earthing applications. Either the incoming cables or busbars to the switchboard can be grounded (figure 2) or the main busbars on the load side of the ACBs only (figure 1).

Earthing ACBs
The modified TemPower 2 ACB - Earthing device (continued)
NHP can supply a completely modified dedicated earthing ACB, parts and advice for on-site conversion. The modified ACB is always a withdrawable type with modifications to the carriage and the ACB. The switchboard itself requires a permanent special earth connection to the earthing ACB carriage. The modified earthing ACB includes either a line or load phase shorting bar, and an earth terminal. The ACB carriage is fitted with a dedicated earth terminal, which has a cluster connection similar the main phase connections. If the ACB has an OCR, shunt trip or UVT, then they must be disabled while the breaker is acting as an earthing device. However in most applications NHP will supply a breaker which is "Non Auto". That is, there is no OCR, and because these are earthing breakers, no shunt or UVTs. The standard ACB "position indicator" is also modified to give the ACB two mechanically operated position indicators, called "ISOLATED" and "EARTH CONNECT".
Obtaining the ACB from NHP or converting on site

NHP can supply a completely modified dedicated earthing ACB or if an existing breaker that is on site requires converting, some parts and instructions can be supplied. Though the conversion of an existing standard breaker can be performed on site, it is probably more economical and practical to have a modified ACB on standby for regular use as an earthing device. This is because making and then undoing the modification will take a number of hours, possibly using up valuable shutdown time. The carriage however is not such an issue, because once modified for earthing applications it can be used with either a standard ACB or the modified earthing ACB.
Using the earthing ACB

When the ACB body that has the earthing modifications is inserted into the earthing chassis, it must be racked into the "EARTH CONNECT" position. Switching the ACB "ON" will then apply a solid earth to the system. Figs 1 and 2 (previous page) show an ACB with incoming cables earthed and the switchboard busbars earthed respectively. It is vital that the ACB cannot be tripped by unauthorized personnel during the maintenance period. In field converted ACBs where an OCR and shunt may be fitted, in order to prevent the a trip occurring under any circumstances, the fitting of an earthing device will automatically make the OCR and shunt trip inoperative. This is achieved by shorting out the OCR current transformer terminals and open circuiting the shunt trip. There is also a padlockable shutter over the mechanical trip button. It is also not safe to include an under voltage trip (UVT) on an earthing ACB, as the loss of control supply would cause the ACB to trip. It is always possible that an unauthorized person may switch "ON" an alternate feed into the section receiving maintenance. In such cases it is necessary for the earthed ACB to remain solidly closed during the duration of the earth fault short circuit. This is so that the other supply ACB will trip via its own OCR. It is for this reason the ACB and associated earthing connections must have a short-time rating equal to the system fault level. TemPower 2 earthing device short time ratings are available on request from NHP . Following the completion of maintenance work, the earthing ACB can be removed. The same ACB can be left for further use, or have the earthing modifications removed. A standard ACB can be inserted into the same carriage for normal service.

Operation environments
Standard environment
The standard environment for ACBs is as follows: Ambient temperature -5 C to +40 C The average temperature for 24 hours must not exceed 35 C 45 % to 85 % Below 2000 m Excessive water vapor, oil vapor, smoke, dust, or corrosive gases must not occur. Sudden changes in temperature, condensation levels, or icing-up will affect the operation of the ACB.

Relative humidity Altitude Atmosphere
Switchboard heating and cooling systems

COSMOTEC / STEGO Standard AR ACBs can operate without special treatment up to a relative humidity of 85 %. For moisture conditions above this, other options such as dehumidifiers, heating systems, fans and air conditioners, can be used to control the environment within a switchboard. Controlling the ambient temperature within the whole switchboard may often be a preferable solution compared to special moisture proofing or cold climate treatment of individual components such as circuit breakers. For a wide range of cabinet cooling and heating systems, the NHP COSMOTEC & STEGO product range could be considered. COSMOTEC & STEGO products are supported and stocked by NHP .

Busbar connection supports
Busbar connection supports
The busbars to the ACB should be firmly supported near the ACB terminal. Fault current flow through the busbars develops a large electromatic force between the busbars, and the support must be strong enough to withstand such forces. The ACB terminals should not be relied upon as a busbar support.

Derating table - when the temperature inside a switchboard is unknown

In such an installation, reduction of the rated current of the ACB (derating) is necessary since ventilation is usually poor and because of the existence of other heat generating devices such as busbars. The degree to which ACB derating is necessary depends upon the size and arrangement of busbars and ACB connections, the size of the switchboard compartment where the ACB is mounted, the switchboard enclosure size, the degree of the enclosure ventilation, as well as other environmental factors. The following tables can be used as a general guide to rating ACBs in an enclosure. It is possible however that varying conditions or the addition of other heat producing devices or even obstructions within the enclosure may require additional derating or an increased level at ventilation. As a guide for ACB derating, the rated current data is shown here for typical switchboard compartments, and the data is based on the temperature rise limits specified below. Standard Ambient temperature Contacts Terminals IEC 40 C 90 C 70 C The following tables indicate the rated currents for ACBs when the enclosure internal temperature is unknown, but the external temperature is known. This data is based on the results of temperature tests carried out by installing AR ACBs into an enclosure 2300H x 700W x 1000D. The following is a typical example: ACB type: AR216S (1600 A) with horizontal terminals ACB position: Top, when 3 ACBs are installed vertically Ventilation area: 2400 cm2 for both the ACB and busbar zone (cut-out or vent size) Zone ventilation: Referring to the diagrams below, in this case the ventilation can be front or rear Front and rear ventilation Outside temperature: 50 C Result: The derating required for the AR ACB is 50 A, which reduces the breaker to a 1500 A capability. By way of example, this derating is substantially less than that which would have been required for the equivalent previous Terasaki series AT ACB (1330 A)

About TemPower 2 AR ACB ordering:
TemPower 2 ACBs are locally assembled by NHP and can be supplied with many variations and options to suit specific end user applications. The list below represents typical specifications to be considered at the time of ordering: 1. ACB type and current rating 2. Number of poles 3. Main circuit and control circuit voltage and frequency 4. Operating temperatures 5. Type of mounting. For example: Draw-out type ACB 6. Terminal arrangements. For example rear connect vertical or horizontal main terminals. Front connect terminals are also an option. 7. Type of charging. Manual lever (standard) or motor operated. If a motor is chosen then the operating voltage has to be specified. 8. The OCR (Over-current relay or "release"). The OCR type needs to be chosen depending on the requirements of the installation. NHP / Terasaki have as standard "LSI" OCRs in all ACBs. Basic AGR11L OCRs are available with or without ground fault. For feature details covering basic OCRs and more advanced OCRs with features such as communications ability, LCD displays plus other options, please refer to page 34-42. 9. Electrical tripping devices: Other options such as Shunt trips, Under voltage releases, or capacitor trips need to be considered. 10.
