2. Introduction
Curves allows the visualization of the time-current, energy and peak limitation characteristics of ABB low voltage
devices. Program features are the guided verifications of the protection of cables, people and discrimination.

3. Use conditions
Curves visualizes tripping and limiting characteristics according to catalogues, considering the worst working
conditions.
The algorithms for the verification of the cable protection are described in the international standards.
The algorithms for the verification of discrimination respect the guidelines provided in ABB SACE Technical
Application Papers, specifically QT1: Low voltage selectivity with ABB circuit-breakers (QT1 from now on).
QT1 is distributed in .pdf format along with Curves and it is available in the Help menu.
The indications about the adjustments of the releases are valid for general purposes. For specific combinations of
circuit-breakers and for specific installation conditions, ABB SACE may provide indications which do not respect the
verifications made in the software.

Cable
The cable control panel contains the data used in the verifications. It is possible to customize
all the default values.
The data used in the verifications are:
Iz: current carrying capacity.
K2S2: max withstandable energy during short circuit.
Ik min: min. fault current at line end.
Ik max: max. fault current at line beginning.

(Figure 8) Cable control panel

Curves User Guide page 13

Ik min calculator
The calculator in the cable control panel allows a quick assessment of the minimum short
circuit current at line end, given the upstream contribution and the cable length.
Following the formulas and hypothesis used in the calculation:

Ik min =

0.95 V

A ( Rph + Rpe + Rs + Ra) 2 + ( Xph + Xpe + Xs ) 2

Legenda:
V = Rated Voltage.
A = Phase coefficient = 1 for single-phase cables, or when PE and Neutral are not

distributed; 3 in all the other cases.


Rph = Phase Resistance at Tmax. Resistance of the phase conductor at the maximum
working temperature (70C for PVC; 90C for EPR).
Rpe = PE Resistance at Tmax. Resistance of the PE conductor (or Neutral, if the PE is
not available) at the maximum working temperature.
Xph = Phase Reactance. The reactance calculation considers conductors in flat
disposition, spaced.
Xpe = PE Reactance.
V
* 0.6
Rs = Resistance of the upstream circuit = 3 * Icc max
.
V
* 0.8
Xs = Reactance of the upstream circuit = 3 * Icc max
.
Ra = Earthing resistance of the network (only for TT systems).

2. Introduction
The thermal calculation module makes it possible to evaluate the thermal behaviour of ABB boards and if desired to
dimension the fans and air-conditioning units to be installed in the board. It can also be used on sets of boards obtained
by installing several units side by side.

3. Reference standards
The algorithms used by the software are as described in Standard IEC 60890, hereinafter the Reference Standard; if
the use of air-conditioning or fans is specified (a situation not considered in the Reference Standard), the program still
uses computation algorithms that are compatible with Standard EN 60439 on low-voltage boards.

3.1.

Range of applicability of the results


The Reference Standard specifies very clearly the applicability of the calculation algorithms:
The proposed method makes it possible to determine the overtemperatures, or the air
temperatures, inside the enclosure, but is unable to determine the temperatures of individual
equipment, devices and cables contained in it
The temperatures of the air inside the board is the same as that of the ambient air outside the
enclosure plus the overtemperatures of the air inside the board due to the power dissipated by
the devices installed (when the air-conditioning is used)
Unless otherwise specified, the temperature of ambient air outside the PTTA corresponds to
the temperature specified for PTTA units for indoor installation: 35C (average value over 24
hours). If the temperature of the ambient air outside the PTTA at the utilisation site exceeds
35 C, this higher temperatures is regarded as the temperature of the ambient air in the PTTA
The distribution of dissipated power inside the enclosure is basically even; the devices are
installed in the board so as not to hinder the circulation of the air, other than to a minimal
extent
The equipment installed is designed for DC or AC, up to and including 60 Hz, with the sum
of supply circuit currents not exceeding 3150A
The cables carrying high currents and the structural parts are arranged so as to ensure that
losses due to eddy current will be negligible
In enclosures with ventilation openings, the cross-section of the air outlet holes is at least 1.1
times as big as the cross-section of the air inlet openings
Any of the compartments of the PTTA will not contain more than three horizontal frames
When enclosures with external ventilation openings are divided into cells, the area of the
ventilation openings in each internal horizontal frame must cover at least 50% the horizontal
section of the cell.

The results of the calculation process are reliable provided that the conditions defined in the
Reference Standards are complied with. Otherwise, the algorithms employed might fail to
provide a correct interpretation of the physical reality of the temperatures inside the board.

Overtemperature calculation tool User Guide Page 4

4. Menu commands

The central part of the interface is dedicated to the definition of the properties of the board,
i.e., the input data relating to its construction characteristics; in particular, the user must
specify:
Type of installation
Regardless of the calculation method adopted, the user can choose from among the
installation modalities defined in the Reference Standard and listed below.

Separate enclosure, detached on all sides

Separate enclosure for wall-mounting

First or last enclosure, detached type

First or last enclosure, for wall-mounting

Central enclosure, detached type

Central enclosure, wall-mounting type

Covered on 2 sides and top surface, for wall mounting

Dimensions of the enclosure


Horizontal frames
(See 3.1 (Range of applicability of the results)
Moreover, in the case of natural ventilation, the user must also specify:
The area of the ventilation grids
In the case of forced ventilation or air-conditioning, when the values are not given as outputs
from the calculation, the user must specify:
Fan capacity, or
Air-conditioning power
You can enter the air-conditioning power form the keyboard or use a calculator shaped button
to select one of the values offered by ABB.

Overtemperature calculation tool User Guide Page 7

The zone dedicated to the Effective cooling area (Ae) displays some partial results of the
calculation, i.e., some parameters determined according to the Reference Standard, which
help the user understand the calculation performed; obviously, this requires a good
knowledge of the calculation method employed (this is recommended, but is totally at the
discretion of the user).
Click Next> to access the second and last page of the calculation.

(Figure 2) Second window of the tool for the calculation of overtemperatures

The first line under the menu recalls the cooling system and the calculation target selected in
the first screen.
The box Power losses enables the user to define the powers dissipated and the demand
factor, i.e., the main factors contributing to heating the board; in particular, as far as
dissipated powers are concerned, it is possible to define the contribution of the devices
installed (Devices rated power losses), the contribution due to bars and cables
(Conductors power losses) plus a generic contribution available to the user (Extra power
losses).
The calculator to the right of the demand factor opens a window with the preferential values
that can be assigned to this factor as a function of the number of main circuits present in the
board.

Overtemperature calculation tool User Guide Page 8

The software performs the calculation in real time and updates whenever an input value is
changed. This means there is no need to use a specific command to perform the calculation
and consistency between the data is always ensured; the results are displayed on screen for
the user to see and can be printed out at any time.
All the results of the calculation are grouped in the Results box.
The Power [W] box provides an overview of the powers dissipated in the board and,
depending on the cooling system adopted, the power removed by the fan or the airconditioning system.
In this manner it is easy to see how the software determines the value of Total power losses
which is then used to calculate the internal overtemperatures with the method specified in the
Reference Standard.
The overtemperatures vs. enclosure height curve (available only in the case of natural
ventilation) makes it possible to determine the temperatures at the points where the devices
are installed.
It is sufficient to know the installation height of the device to be checked, read the
overtemperature value on the abscissas and add the Ambient temperature value to obtain
the internal temperature of the board at the desired height.

(Figure 3) Graphic of overtemperatures inside the enclosure

You can either print the calculation report, or


Use the Export drawing command in the File menu, or

6. Calculation algorithms and formulas: basics


As mentioned above, if natural ventilation is used, the calculation method adopted is that of the Reference Standard. In
the presence of air-conditioning or fans (situations not envisaged by the Reference Standard), the calculation algorithms
used are still compatible with Standard EN 60439.
Some important details of the calculation process are given below.

6.1.

Determination of Ae
The determination of Ae (Effective cooling area that determines the heat exchange between
the enclosure and the external environment) is generalised to the entire ABB thermal
calculation module and is applied both in the case of natural ventilation and in the case of
forced ventilation or air-conditioning.
For further details on the calculation process see the Reference Standard.

6.2.

Forced ventilation
In the case of forced ventilation (a situation not considered by the Reference Standard), the
thermal power extracted by the fan is determined with this formula:
where:

P = Q (Te - Ti ) / fx
P = Power to be extracted [W]
Q = Fan capacity [m3/h]
fx = Thermal exchange coefficient [m3 C/Wh]
Te = Ambient temperatures [C]
Ti = Temperatures inside the enclosure [C] (Te <Ti)

The table below gives the values of fx as a function of altitude above sea level (from the
qualitative standpoint, air density decreases with increasing altitude and its capacity to
subtract heat decreases accordingly).
Altitude above sea level of installation site [m]
fx [m3 C/Wh]
0 100
3.1
100 250
3.2
250 500
3.3
500 750
3.4
750 1000
3.5
Then, the power extracted by the fan is subtracted from the power dissipated in the enclosure
and the calculation is performed according to the Reference Standard without natural
ventilation openings.
For further calculation details, see the Reference Standard.

6.3.

Air-conditioning
Air-conditioning is not taken into account in the Reference Standard; in this case, the
software uses the formulas given below.
As a rule, the use of air-conditioning shows that ambient temperature is greater than the

Overtemperature calculation tool User Guide Page 11

interior temperature of the enclosure: in this case, the contribution of the thermal power that
is transmitted through the surface of the board must be summed to the power losses due to
the devices, the cables, etc.
This contribution is obtained from the following formula:
where

Pa = Kf Ae (Te - Ti)
Pa = Power entering the enclosure through the environment [W]
Ae = Effective cooling area [m2]
Te = External temperature [C]
Ti = Interior temperature [C]
Kf = Thermal exchange coefficient (depending on the board wall material; in our case
it is Kf = 5.5 [W / m2 C])

The air-conditioning power to be installed is given by this formula:


where

Pc = Pt /Kx
Pc = Air-conditioning power to be installed [W]
Kx = Cooling efficiency of the air-conditioning
Pt = Total power loss in the board (Pa included) [W]

The Kx factor, which is a function of the ambient temperature and the temperature you want
to obtain inside the board, is given by the manufacturer of the air-conditioning system. For
ABB air-conditioners, Kx is obtained from the diagram shown below (only ambient
temperatures in the 20 - 55C range and interior temperatures in the 20 - 45C range can be
considered).
The software adds the power Pa to the power dissipated inside the board, subtracts the power
removed by the air-conditioning and then performs the calculation according to the Reference
Standard without natural ventilation openings.
For further details on the calculation process, see the Reference Standard.

Discrimination and back-up

This collection of selectivity and back-up tables for ABB circuit-breakers has been
studied to help select the appropriate circuit-breaker, fulfilling the specific selectivity
and back-up requirements according to the different types of installation.
The tables are divided on the basis of the type of intervention (back-up or selective
protection), and are grouped according to types of circuit-breakers (air, moulded-case,
and miniature), covering all the possible combinations of ABB circuit-breakers.
The technical data, updated to the latest series of miniature, moulded-case and air
circuit breakers on the market, make this publication a comprehensive and simple tool:
once again, ABB SACE makes its consolidated experience in the Low Voltage sector
available to professionals.

Choosing the type of coordination for protection of a low voltage installation


Problems and requirements for coordinating protection devices
Selection of the system for protecting an electric installation is of paramount importance
both to ensure correct economic and functional operation of the whole installation and
to reduce any problems caused by anomalous operating conditions and actual faults
to a minimum.
This analysis deals with coordination between the different devices dedicated to
protection of zones and specific components in order to:
guarantee safety for people and the installation at all times;
identify and rapidly exclude only the zone affected by a given problem, instead of
taking indiscriminate action thereby reducing the energy available in areas unaffected
by the fault;
reduce the effects of a fault on other sound parts of the installation (voltage drops,
loss of stability in rotating machines);
reduce the stress on components and damage in the zone involved;
ensure service continuity with good quality power supply voltage;
guarantee adequate backup in the event of any malfunction of the protection device
responsible for opening the circuit;
provide maintenance personnel and the management system with the information
needed to restore the service as rapidly as possible and with minimal disturbance to
the rest of the network;
achieve a valid compromise between reliability, simplicity and cost effectiveness.
To be more precise, a valid protection system must be able to:
understand what and where an event has occurred, discriminating between situations
that are anomalous but tolerable and genuine faults within a given zone of influence,
avoiding unwarranted trips which lead to unjustified stoppage of a sound part of the
installation;
act as rapidly as possible to limit damage (destruction, accelerated ageing, etc.),
safeguarding continuity and stability of the power supply.
The solutions stem from a compromise between the following two opposing needs precise identification of the fault and rapid intervention - and are defined according to
which requirement takes priority.
For instance, when it is more important to avoid unnecessary tripping, it is generally
preferable to have an indirect protection system based on interlocks and data
transmission between different devices which measure the electrical values locally,
whereas for prompt response and limitation of the destructive effect of short-circuits, a
direct-acting system with releases integrated in the devices is needed. Generally
speaking, in low voltage systems for primary and secondary distribution, the latter
solution is preferable.

Discrimination and back-up

Restricting the field to an analysis of the problem of how to harmonize the action of the
protection devices in the event of overcurrents (overloads and short-circuits) - a problem
covering 90% of the coordination requirements of protection devices in radial low voltage
installations - it is important to remember that:
overcurrent trip selectivity means coordination of the operating characteristics of
two or more overcurrent protection devices so that, on occurrence of overcurrents
within established limits, the device supposed to operate within these limits intervenes,
whereas the others do not1;
total discrimination means overcurrent selectivity so that when there are two
overcurrent protection devices in series, the protection device on the load side provides
protection without tripping the other protection device2;
partial discrimination means overcurrent selectivity so that when there are two
overcurrent protection devices in series, the protection device on the load side provides
protection up to a given overcurrent limit without tripping the other device3. This
overcurrent threshold is called the selectivity limit current Is4;
back-up protection means coordination for protection against overcurrents of two
protection devices in series, where the protection device generally (but not necessarily)
situated on the supply side provides overcurrent protection with or without the aid of
the other protection device and avoids excessive stress on the latter5. The current
value above which protection is ensured is called the switching current IB6.

Types of coordination
Influence of the electrical parameters of the installation (rated current and shortcircuit current)
If the analysis is restricted to the behaviour of the protection devices with tripping
based on overcurrent releases, the strategy used to coordinate the protection devices
mainly depends on the rated current (In) and short-circuit current (Ik) values in the part of
installation concerned.
Generally speaking, the following types of coordination can be classified:
current type selectivity;
time type selectivity;
zone selectivity;
energy selectivity;
back-up.
Now let us examine these various solutions in detail.

Coordination tables
Discrimination and back-up

Current type selectivity


This type of discrimination is based on the observation that the closer the fault is to the
power supply of the installation, the higher the short-circuit current will be. We can
therefore pinpoint the zone where the fault has occurred can therefore be discriminated
simply by setting the protection devices to a limit value so that this does not generate
unwarranted trips due to faults in the zone of influence of the protection device
immediately to the load side (where the fault current must be lower than the current
threshold set on the protection device on the supply side).
Total discrimination can normally only be obtained in specific cases where the fault
current is not very high or where a component with high impedance is placed between
the two protection devices (e.g. a transformer, a very long cable, or a cable with reduced
cross-section, etc.) giving rise to a great difference between the short-circuit current
values.
This type of coordination is therefore mainly used in end distribution (with low rated
current and short-circuit current values and high impedance of the connection cables).
The device time-current trip curves are generally used for the study.
This solution is intrinsically rapid (instantaneous), easy to implement and inexpensive.
On the other hand:
the selectivity limit current is normally low, so discrimination is often only partial;
the threshold setting of the overcurrent protection devices rapidly exceeds the values
consistent with safety requirements, becoming incompatible with the need to reduce
damage caused by short-circuits;
it becomes impossible to provide redundant protection devices which can guarantee
elimination of the fault in the event of any of the protection devices failing to function.
Time type selectivity
This type of discrimination is an evolution of the previous one. Using this type of
coordination, in order to define the trip threshold, the current value measured is
associated with the duration of the phenomenon: a given current value will trip the
protection devices after an established time delay, which is such as to allow any
protection devices situated closer to the fault to trip, excluding the zone where the fault
occurred.
The setting strategy is therefore to progressively increase the current thresholds and
the trip time delays the closer one is to the power supply source (the setting level
correlates directly with the hierarchical level). The steps between the time delays set on
protection devices in series must take into account the sum of the times for detecting
and eliminating the fault and the overshoot time of the supply side device (the time
interval during which the protection device can trip even if the phenomenon has already
ended). As in the case of current type selectivity, the study is carried out by comparing
the time-current protection device trip curves.
This type of coordination is generally:
easy to study and implement, and inexpensive with regard to the protection system;
it allows even high limit discrimination levels to be obtained, depending on the
shorttime withstand current of the supply side device;
it allows redundant protection functions and can send valid information to the control
system;
but:
the trip times and energy levels let through by the protection devices, especially
those close to the sources, are high, with obvious problems regarding safety and
damage to the components (often oversized) even in zones unaffected by the fault;
it only allows use of current-limiting circuit-breakers at levels hierarchically lower down
the chain. The other circuit-breakers must be capable of withstanding the thermal and
electro-dynamic stresses related to the passage of the fault current for the intentional

Discrimination and back-up

time delay. Selective circuit-breakers, often of the open type, must be used for the
various levels (category B circuit-breakers according to the IEC 60947-2 Standard) to
guarantee a sufficiently high short-time withstand current;
the duration of the disturbance induced by the short-circuit current on the power
supply voltages in the zones unaffected by the fault can pose problems with
electromechanical (voltage below the electromagnetic release value) and electronic
devices;
the number of discrimination levels is limited by the maximum time which can be
withstood by the electrical system without loss of stability.
Zone (or logical) selectivity
This type of coordination is a further evolution of time coordination and can be direct or
indirect. Generally speaking, it is implemented by means of a dialogue between
currentmeasuring devices which, when they detect that the setting threshold has been
exceeded, enable correct identification and power supply disconnection of just the
zone affected by the fault.
It can be implemented in two ways:
the measuring devices send information to the supervision system about the fact
that the set current threshold has been exceeded and the latter decides which
protection device to trip;
when there are current values over the set threshold, each protection device sends a
blocking signal via a direct connection or a bus to the protection device higher in the
hierarchy (i.e. on the supply side in relation to the direction of the power flow) and,
before it trips, makes sure that a similar blocking signal has not arrived from the
protection device on the load side. This way, only the protection device immediately
to the supply side of the fault is tripped.
The first mode has trip times of around 0.5-5 s and is mainly used in the case of not
particularly high short-circuit currents with a power flow direction not unequivocally
defined (e.g. for lighting systems in long road and rail tunnels).
The second mode has distinctly shorter trip times: compared with time type coordination,
there is no longer any need to increase the intentional time delay progressively as you
move closer to the power supply source. The delay can be reduced to a waiting time
sufficient to rule out any presence of a block signal from the protection device on the
load side (time taken by the device to detect the anomalous situation and successfully
complete transmission of the signal).
Compared with time type coordination, zone selectivity implemented in this way:
reduces the trip times and increases the safety level. The trip times can be around a
hundred milliseconds;
reduces both the damage caused by the fault and the disturbance to the power
supply network;
reduces the thermal and dynamic stresses on the circuit-breakers;
allows a very high number of discrimination levels;
but it is more burdensome both in terms of costs and in the complexity of the installation.
This solution is therefore mainly used in systems with high rated current and shortcircuit
current values, with inescapable needs both in terms of safety and service continuity:
in particular, examples of logical discrimination are often found in primary distribution
switchgear, immediately to the load side of transformers and generators.
Another interesting application is the combined use of zone and time type selectivity, in
which the stretches of the coordination chain managed logically have protection device
trip times for short-circuits which decrease progressively moving up towards the power
supply sources. The zone selectivity function is available with:
Emax circuit-breakers equipped with PR122/P and PR123/P electronic releases
Tmax circuit-breakers equipped with PR223EF electronic releases.
For further information, please consult the specific technical catalogues.
ABB SACE

Coordination tables
Discrimination and back-up

Energy-based selectivity
Energy-based coordination is a particular type of selectivity which exploits the
currentlimiting characteristics of moulded-case circuit-breakers. It is important to
remember that a current-limiting circuit-breaker is a circuit-breaker with a trip time
short enough to prevent the short-circuit current reaching the peak value it would
otherwise reach7.
In practice, all the ABB SACE moulded-case circuit-breakers in the Isomax and Tmax
ranges have more or less accentuated current-limiting features, obtained by:
reaching a valid compromise between the capacity of the release to withstand current
values lower than the instantaneous trip thresholds and the repulsion of the main
contacts at short-circuit currents;
triggering rapid displacement of the arc inside the arcing chambers (magnetic blast)
suitably designed to generate a high arcing voltage;
placing several arcing chambers in series, with contacts optimised to carry out different
functions (main opening under short-circuit, backup opening with the principal function
of isolation and opposition to the recovery voltage, etc.).
Under short-circuit conditions, these circuit-breakers are extremely rapid (with trip times
of a few milliseconds) and open in the event of a strong asymmetric component. It is
therefore not possible to use the time-current trip curves (load side circuit-breaker) and
no trip limit curves (supply side circuit-breaker), obtained with symmetrical sine wave
forms, to study the coordination. The phenomena are mainly dynamic (and therefore
proportional to the square of the instantaneous current value) and can be described
using the specific let-through energy and no trip limit energy curves of the supply side
circuit-breaker.
What generally happens is that the energy associated with the load side circuit-breaker
trip is lower than the energy value needed to complete the opening of the supply side
circuit-breaker. To ensure a good level of reliability, avoiding any oversizing or transient
contact repulsion phenomena in the circuit-breaker on the supply side, this calculation
should be integrated with additional information, such as the current limiting curves
(peak Ip value - prospective value of the symmetrical component of the short-circuit
current) and the setting for contact repulsion.
This type of selectivity is certainly more difficult to consider than the previous ones
because it depends largely on the interaction between the two devices placed in series
(wave forms, etc.) and requires access to data often unavailable to the end user.
Manufacturers provide tables, slide rules and calculation programs in which the limit
selectivity current values Is under short-circuit conditions between different combinations
of circuit-breakers are given. These values are defined by theoretically integrating the
results of a large number of tests performed in compliance with the requirements of
appendix A of the IEC 60947-2 Standard.
The advantages of using this type of coordination include:
breaking is fast, with trip times which become shorter as the short-circuit current
increases. This consequently reduces the damage caused by the fault (thermal and
dynamic stresses), the disturbance to the power supply system, the sizing costs,
etc.;
the discrimination level is no longer limited by the value of the short-time current Icw
withstood by the devices;
a large number of hierarchically different levels can be coordinated;

VI

IEC 60947-2 Standard, def. 2.3

ABB SACE

Coordination tables
Discrimination and back-up

different current-limiting devices (fuses, circuit-breakers, etc.) can be coordinated,


even when located in intermediate positions along the chain.
This type of coordination is used above all for secondary and final distribution, with
rated currents below 1600 A.
Back-up protection
With backup protection, discrimination is sacrificed in favour of the need to help the
load side devices which have to interrupt short-circuit currents beyond their breaking
capacity. In this case, over and above the switching current IB, simultaneous opening
of both the protection devices placed in series or, alternatively, of just the supply side
circuit-breaker (a somewhat rare case, typical of a configuration consisting of a supply
side circuit-breaker and a load side isolator).
Manufacturers provide tables derived from tests based on the previously-mentioned
appendix A of the IEC 60947-2 Standard.
These combinations can be calculated according to the instructions given in section
A.6.2 of the above standard, comparing:
the value of the Joule integral of the device protected at its breaking capacity with
that of the supply side device at the prospective current of the association (maximum
short-circuit current for which backup protection is provided);
the effects induced in the load side device (e.g. by the arcing energy, maximum peak
current and limited current) at the peak current value during operation of the protection
device against a supply side short-circuit.
Conclusions
Technically a large number of solutions can be realised regarding coordination of the
protection devices in an installation.
Selecting which type of coordination to use in the various zones of the installation is
strictly linked to installation and design parameters and stems from a series of
compromises so that the objectives required in terms of reliability and availability are
achieved keeping the costs and limiting the risks within acceptable limits.
The designers task is to choose a solution, for the various installation zones, from
among those available which offers the best balance between technical and financial
requirements according to:
functional and safety requirements (acceptable risk levels) and reliability (availability
of the installation);
the reference value of the electrical values;
the costs (protection devices, control systems, interconnection components, etc.);
the effects, the admissible duration and the cost of electrical disservices;
any future evolution of the system.
For each of the proposed solutions, there is a combination of ABB products which can
meet these requirements.

General notes on motor protection and switching

Electromechanical starter
The starter is designed to:
start motors;
ensure continuous functioning of motors;
disconnect motors from the supply line;
guarantee protection of motors against working overloads.
The starter is typically made up of a switching device (contactor) and an overload
protection device (thermal release).
The two devices must be coordinated with equipment capable of providing protection
against short-circuit (typically a circuit breaker with magnetic release only), which is not
necessarily part of the starter.
The characteristics of the starter must comply with the international Standard
IEC 60947-4-1, which defines the above as follows:
Contactor: a mechanical switching device having only one position of rest, operated
otherwise than by hand, capable of making, carrying and breaking currents under normal
circuit conditions including operating overload conditions.
Thermal release: thermal overload relay or release which operates in the case of
overload and also in case of loss of phase.
Circuit-breaker: defined by IEC 60947-2 as a mechanical switching device, capable
of making, carrying and breaking currents under normal circuit conditions and also
making, carrying for a specified time and breaking currents under specified abnormal
circuit conditions.
The main types of motor which can be operated and which determine the characteristics
of the starter are defined by the following utilization categories:

AC-3 categories may be used for occasionally inching or plugging for limited time periods such as machine
set-up; during such limited time periods the number of such operations should not exceed five per minutes
or more than ten in a 10 minutes period.

The choice of the starting method and also, if necessary, of the type of motor to be
used depends on the typical resistant torque of the load and on the short-circuit power
of the motor supplying network.
With alternating current, the most commonly used motor types are as follows:
asynchronous three-phase squirrel-cage motors (AC-3): the most widespread type
due to the fact that they are of simple construction, economical and sturdy; they
develop high torque with short acceleration times, but require elevated starting
currents;
slip-ring motors (AC-2): characterized by less demanding starting conditions, and
have quite a high starting torque, even with a supply network of low power.

Coordination tables
General notes on motor protection and switching

Starting methods
The most common starting methods for asynchronous squirrel-cage motors are detailed
below.
Direct starting (DOL)
With direct starting, the DOL (Direct On Line) starter, with the closing of line contactor
KL, the line voltage is applied to the motor terminals in a single operation. Hence a
squirrel-cage motor develops a high starting torque with a
relatively reduced acceleration time. This method is generally
used with small and medium power motors which reach full
working speed in a short time.
These advantages are, however, accompanied by a series of
MCCB
drawbacks, including, for example:
high current consumption and associated voltage drop which
may cause damages to the other parts of the system
KL
connected to the network;
violent acceleration which has negative effects on mechanical
transmission components (belts, chains and mechanical
joints), reducing working life.
TOR
Other types of starting for squirrel-cage motors are
accomplished by reducing the supply voltage of the motor:
MOTOR
this leads to a reduction in the starting current and of the motor
torque, and an increase in the acceleration time.
Star-Delta starter (Y-)
The most common reduced voltage starter is the Star-Delta starter (Y-), in which:
on starting, the stator windings are star-connected, thus achieving the reduction of
peak inrush current;
once the normal speed of the motor is nearly reached, the switchover to delta is
carried out.
After the switchover, the current and the torque
follow the progress of the curves associated with
normal service connections (delta).
As can be easily checked, starting the motor
MCCB
with star-connection gives a voltage reduction
of 3, and the current absorbed from the line is
reduced by 1/3 compared with that absorbed
with delta-connection.
K
KL
The start-up torque, proportional to the square
KY
of the voltage, is reduced by 3 times, compared
with the torque that the same motor would
TOR
supply when delta-connected.
This method is generally applied to motors with
MOTOR
power from 15 to 355 kW, but intended to start
with a low initial resistant torque.

ABB SACE

Coordination tables
General notes on motor protection and switching

Starting sequence
By pressing the start button, contactors KL and KY are closed. The timer starts to
measure the start time with the motor connected in star. Once the set time has elapsed,
the first contact of the timer opens the KY contactor and the second contact, delayed
by approximately 50-80 ms, closes the K contactor.
With this new configuration, contactors KL and K closed, the motor becomes
deltaconnected.
The thermal release TOR, inserted in the delta circuit, can detect any 3rd harmonic
currents, which may occur due to saturation of the magnetic pack and by adding to the
fundamental current, overload the motor without involving the line.
With reference to the connection diagram, the equipment used for a Star/Delta starter
must be able to carry the following currents:

where Ie is the rated current of the motor.


With reference to the previously-mentioned Standard, the starter can be classified
according to the tripping time (Trip Class) and to the coordination type implemented by
means of a protection device against short-circuit (Type 1 and Type 2).
Trip classes
The trip classes differentiate between the thermal releases according to their trip curve.
The trip classes are defined in the following table 2:

Table 2: Trip class

10
20

Trip time in seconds (Tp)


2 < Tp 10
4 < Tp 10
6 < Tp 20
9 < Tp 30

where Tp is the cold trip time of the thermal release at 7.2 times the set current value
(for example: a release in class 10 at 7.2 times the set current value must not trip within
4 s, but must trip within 10 s).
It is normal procedure to associate class 10 with a normal start-up type, and class 30
with a heavy duty start-up type.

ABB SACE

Coordination tables
General notes on motor protection and switching

Coordination type
Type 1
It is acceptable that in the case of short-circuit the contactor and the thermal release
may be damaged. The starter may still not be able to function and must be inspected;
if necessary, the contactor and/or the thermal release must be replaced, and the breaker
release reset.
Type 2
In the case of short-circuit, the thermal release must not be damaged, while the welding
of the contactor contacts is allowed, as they can easily be separated (with a screwdriver,
for example), without any significant deformation.

Switch-disconnectors

Switch-disconnectors
Switch-disconnectors are mechanical switching devices, capable of closing, carrying
and interrupting currents under normal circuit conditions which can include specific
overload switching conditions and which, in the open position, satisfy the isolation
requirements specified for an isolator.
A switch-disconnector can be able to close and carry currents - for an established time
- under specific abnormal circuit conditions, such as those which occur in the case of
a short-circuit.
The Standard regarding switch-disconnectors is IEC 60947-3.
Each switch-disconnector must be protected by a coordinated device which safeguards
it against overcurrents - normally a circuit-breaker, and which is able to limit the peak
values of the short-circuit current and the specific let-through energy, to acceptable
levels for the switch-disconnector.

Back-up protection
The tables given provide the value (in kA, referring to the breaking capacity according
to the IEC 60947-2 Standard) for which the back-up protection among the combination
of selected circuit-breakers is verified. The tables cover the possible combinations
between ABB SACE Tmax and Isomax series of moulded-case circuit-breakers and
those between the above-mentioned circuit-breakers and the ABB series of miniature
circuit-breakers.
The values indicated in the tables refer to the voltage:
Vn of 230/240 V AC for coordination with miniature S9 circuit-breakers
Vn of 400/415 V AC for all the other coordinations.

Note
The following tables give the breaking capacities at 415 V AC for circuit-breakers SACE
Isomax and Tmax.

Notes for use

Selective protection
The tables given provide the value (in kA, referring to the breaking capacity according
to the IEC 60947-2 Standard) for which the selective protection is verified among the
combination of selected circuit-breakers. The tables cover the possible combinations
between ABB SACE Emax series air circuit-breakers, ABB SACE Tmax and Isomax
series of moulded-case circuit-breakers, and the ABB series of miniature circuit-breakers.
The values in the table represent the maximum value obtainable of discrimination
between supply side circuit-breaker and load side circuit-breaker referring to the voltage:
Vn of 230/240 V AC for the S9 circuit-breakers and Vn of 400/415 V AC for the supply
side circuit-breakers in the coordination between MCB with the miniature S9 circuitbreakers.
Vn of 400/415 V AC for all the other coordinations.
These values are obtained following particular specifications which, when not respected,
could give discrimination values which are in some cases much lower than what is
indicated. Some of these are generally valid and are given below, others referring
exclusively to particular types of circuit-breakers will be the subject of a note under the
relative table.

General prescriptions
Function I of the electronic releases of the supply side circuit-breakers must be
excluded (I3 in OFF);
The magnetic trip of thermomagnetic (TM) or magnetic only (M) circuit-breakers placed
on the supply side must be 10 x In and regulated to the maximum threshold;
It is of prime importance to check that the settings made by the user for the electronic
and thermomagnetic relays of circuit-breakers placed both on the load and supply
side results in time-current curves properly spaced.

Discrimination
Notes for use

Note
The letter T indicates total discrimination for the selected combination; the corresponding
value in kA is obtained by considering the lowest between the breaking capacities (Icu)
of the circuit-breaker on the load side and the circuit-breaker on the supply side.
The following tables give the breaking capacities at 415 V AC for SACE Emax, Isomax
and Tmax circuit-breakers.

Motor protection
Notes for use

ABB SACE proposes a vast range of coordination solutions for the power supply of any
motor for which protection against short-circuit and overload are of fundamental
importance.
Standard used
IEC 60947 - 4 1
Rated power of the motor
The tables are based on the current consumed by electric, three-phase squirrel cage
ABB induction motors with four poles.
The rated power of the motor is expressed in kiloWatt
Protection device
As protection device, the following tables use the moulded-case circuit-breakers (MCCB)
with the following types of releases:
MF fixed magnetic only release (for Tmax T2 circuit-breakers)
MA magnetic only release adjustable (for Tmax T2e T3 circuit-breakers)
PR221/I electronic release (for Tmax T4 and T5 circuit-breakers)
PR222MP electronic release (for Tmax T4 and T5 circuit-breakers).
The solutions proposed refer to an ambient temperature of 40 C and to fixed version
apparatus. For higher temperatures, please contact ABB SACE.

Type of starting
By normal starting, a starting time up to 2 s is intended in accordance with the trip
time of the thermal relays in class 10 A (see table 2).
By heavy duty, a starting time up to 9 s is intended in accordance with the trip time of
the thermal relays in class 30 (see table 2).
Two factors must be considered for normal star-delta starting: the speed the motor
has reached at the end of the starting period is 85% higher than the rated one; the
transition time between the star delta connection is 80 ms shorter.
Short-circuit current
The valid selection for a certain value also covers lower levels of short-circuit. For
example, by selecting 80 kA, protection which is also valid for lower values is obtained
(70, 60..kA, at the same voltage). This means a starter with higher performances at
the required breaking capacity. For more economical solutions, verifying some specific
solutions for lower short-circuit levels is recommended.

Motor protection
Notes for use

Notes
To determine a type of coordination univocally, and therefore the apparatus needed to
carry it out, the following must be known:
motor power in kW and the type;
rated installation voltage;
rated current of the motor;
short-circuit current at the point of installation;
type of starting: DOL or Y/ - Normal or Heavy - Type 1 o Type 2.
Example for using the tables
You want to realize Y/ Normal Type 2 starting of a three-phase asynchronous
squirrelcage motor with the following data:
rated voltage
short-circuit current
rated motor power

Ur = 400 V
Ik = 50 kA
Pe = 200 kW

The following information is read from the table (stardelta 400 V 50 kA), in
correspondence with the relative line:
Ie (rated current):
349 A
protection device against short-circuit:
T5S630 PR221-I In630 circuit-breaker

Switch-disconnectors
Notes for use

The following tables give the coordination between circuit-breakers and switchdisconnectors of the following series: Tmax, Isomax, OT and OTEL.
The tables give the value of the maximum short-circuit current in kA for which protection
between the combination of circuit-breaker - switch-disconnector is verified, for voltages
up to 415 V.
The MCCB-OT-OETL tables are also valid at a voltage of 440 V. It is important to check
that the breaking capacities at 440 V (present in the technical catalogues of the circuitbreakers) are compatible with the installation data.
With regard to the switch-disconnectors of the Emax series, on the other hand, it must
be checked that the short-circuit current value at the point of installation is lower than
the value of the short-time withstand current (Icw) of the switch-disconnector and that
the peak current value is lower than the making capacity current value (Icm).
The protection against overload of the Emax switch-disconnector must also be checked.
This can be carried out by means of an Emax series circuit-breaker of the same size.
Please consult the Emax Low Voltage air circuit-breakers technical catalogue for the
characteristics of Emax switch-disconnectors.

Notes for use

Selective protection
The tables given provide the value (in kA, referring to the breaking capacity according
to the IEC 60947-2 Standard) for which the selective protection is verified among the
combination of selected circuit-breakers. The tables cover the possible combinations
between ABB SACE Tmax and Isomax series of moulded-case circuit-breakers and
the ABB series of miniature circuit-breakers.
The values in the table represent the maximum value obtainable of discrimination
between supply side circuit-breaker and load side circuit-breaker referring to the voltage:
Vn of 230/240 V AC for the S9 circuit-breakers and Vn of 400/415 V AC for the supply
side circuit-breakers in the coordination between MCB with the modular S9 circuitbreakers.
Vn of 400/415 V AC for all the other coordinations.
These values are obtained following particular specifications which, when not respected,
could give discrimination values which are in some cases much lower than what is
indicated. Some of these are generally valid and are given below, others referring
exclusively to particular types of circuit-breakers will be the subject of a note under the
relative table.

General prescriptions
Function I of the electronic releases of the supply side circuit-breakers must be
excluded (I3 in OFF);
The magnetic trip of thermomagnetic (TM) or magnetic only (M) circuit-breakers placed
on the supply side must be * 10 x In and regulated to the maximum threshold;
It is of prime importance to check that the settings made by the user for the electronic
and thermomagnetic relays of circuit-breakers placed both on the load and supply
side do not create intersections on the time-current curves.

Discrimination
Notes for use

Note
The letter T indicates total discrimination for the selected combination; the corresponding
value in kA is obtained by considering the lowest between the breaking capacities (Icu)
of the circuit-breaker on the load side and the circuit-breaker on the supply side.
The following tables give the breaking capacities at 415 V AC for SACE Isomax
and Tmax circuit-breakers.

2. Introduction
The thermal calculation module makes it possible to evaluate the thermal behaviour of ABB boards and if desired to
dimension the fans and air-conditioning units to be installed in the board. It can also be used on sets of boards obtained
by installing several units side by side.

3. Reference standards
The algorithms used by the software are as described in Standard IEC 60890, hereinafter the Reference Standard; if
the use of air-conditioning or fans is specified (a situation not considered in the Reference Standard), the program still
uses computation algorithms that are compatible with Standard EN 60439 on low-voltage boards.

3.1.

Range of applicability of the results


The Reference Standard specifies very clearly the applicability of the calculation algorithms:
The proposed method makes it possible to determine the overtemperatures, or the air
temperatures, inside the enclosure, but is unable to determine the temperatures of individual
equipment, devices and cables contained in it
The temperatures of the air inside the board is the same as that of the ambient air outside the
enclosure plus the overtemperatures of the air inside the board due to the power dissipated by
the devices installed (when the air-conditioning is used)
Unless otherwise specified, the temperature of ambient air outside the PTTA corresponds to
the temperature specified for PTTA units for indoor installation: 35C (average value over 24
hours). If the temperature of the ambient air outside the PTTA at the utilisation site exceeds
35 C, this higher temperatures is regarded as the temperature of the ambient air in the PTTA
The distribution of dissipated power inside the enclosure is basically even; the devices are
installed in the board so as not to hinder the circulation of the air, other than to a minimal
extent
The equipment installed is designed for DC or AC, up to and including 60 Hz, with the sum
of supply circuit currents not exceeding 3150A
The cables carrying high currents and the structural parts are arranged so as to ensure that
losses due to eddy current will be negligible
In enclosures with ventilation openings, the cross-section of the air outlet holes is at least 1.1
times as big as the cross-section of the air inlet openings
Any of the compartments of the PTTA will not contain more than three horizontal frames
When enclosures with external ventilation openings are divided into cells, the area of the
ventilation openings in each internal horizontal frame must cover at least 50% the horizontal
section of the cell.

The results of the calculation process are reliable provided that the conditions defined in the
Reference Standards are complied with. Otherwise, the algorithms employed might fail to
provide a correct interpretation of the physical reality of the temperatures inside the board.

The central part of the interface is dedicated to the definition of the properties of the board,
i.e., the input data relating to its construction characteristics; in particular, the user must
specify:
Type of installation
Regardless of the calculation method adopted, the user can choose from among the
installation modalities defined in the Reference Standard and listed below.

Separate enclosure, detached on all sides

Separate enclosure for wall-mounting

First or last enclosure, detached type

First or last enclosure, for wall-mounting

Central enclosure, detached type

Central enclosure, wall-mounting type

Dimensions of the enclosure


Horizontal frames
(See 3.1 (Range of applicability of the results)
Moreover, in the case of natural ventilation, the user must also specify:
The area of the ventilation grids
In the case of forced ventilation or air-conditioning, when the values are not given as outputs
from the calculation, the user must specify:
Fan capacity, or
Air-conditioning power
You can enter the air-conditioning power form the keyboard or use a calculator shaped button
to select one of the values offered by ABB.

Overtemperature calculation tool User Guide Page 7

The zone dedicated to the Effective cooling area (Ae) displays some partial results of the
calculation, i.e., some parameters determined according to the Reference Standard, which
help the user understand the calculation performed; obviously, this requires a good
knowledge of the calculation method employed (this is recommended, but is totally at the
discretion of the user).
Click Next> to access the second and last page of the calculation.

(Figure 2) Second window of the tool for the calculation of overtemperatures

The first line under the menu recalls the cooling system and the calculation target selected in
the first screen.
The box Power losses enables the user to define the powers dissipated and the demand
factor, i.e., the main factors contributing to heating the board; in particular, as far as
dissipated powers are concerned, it is possible to define the contribution of the devices
installed (Devices rated power losses), the contribution due to bars and cables
(Conductors power losses) plus a generic contribution available to the user (Extra power
losses).
The calculator to the right of the demand factor opens a window with the preferential values
that can be assigned to this factor as a function of the number of main circuits present in the
board.

Overtemperature calculation tool User Guide Page 8

The software performs the calculation in real time and updates whenever an input value is
changed. This means there is no need to use a specific command to perform the calculation
and consistency between the data is always ensured; the results are displayed on screen for
the user to see and can be printed out at any time.
All the results of the calculation are grouped in the Results box.
The Power [W] box provides an overview of the powers dissipated in the board and,
depending on the cooling system adopted, the power removed by the fan or the airconditioning system.
In this manner it is easy to see how the software determines the value of Total power losses
which is then used to calculate the internal overtemperatures with the method specified in the
Reference Standard.
The overtemperatures vs. enclosure height curve (available only in the case of natural
ventilation) makes it possible to determine the temperatures at the points where the devices
are installed.
It is sufficient to know the installation height of the device to be checked, read the
overtemperature value on the abscissas and add the Ambient temperature value to obtain
the internal temperature of the board at the desired height.

You can either print the calculation report, or


Use the Export drawing command in the File menu, or
Move the mouse pointer over the graphic, right click and select Export drawing: now
you can paste the graphic in any other application!

6. Calculation algorithms and formulas: basics


As mentioned above, if natural ventilation is used, the calculation method adopted is that of the Reference Standard. In
the presence of air-conditioning or fans (situations not envisaged by the Reference Standard), the calculation algorithms
used are still compatible with Standard EN 60439.
Some important details of the calculation process are given below.

6.1.

Determination of Ae
The determination of Ae (Effective cooling area that determines the heat exchange between
the enclosure and the external environment) is generalised to the entire ABB thermal
calculation module and is applied both in the case of natural ventilation and in the case of
forced ventilation or air-conditioning.
For further details on the calculation process see the Reference Standard.

6.2.

Forced ventilation
In the case of forced ventilation (a situation not considered by the Reference Standard), the
thermal power extracted by the fan is determined with this formula:
where:

P = Q (Te - Ti ) / fx
P = Power to be extracted [W]
Q = Fan capacity [m3/h]
fx = Thermal exchange coefficient [m3 C/Wh]
Te = Ambient temperatures [C]
Ti = Temperatures inside the enclosure [C] (Te <Ti)

The table below gives the values of fx as a function of altitude above sea level (from the
qualitative standpoint, air density decreases with increasing altitude and its capacity to
subtract heat decreases accordingly).
Altitude above sea level of installation site [m]
fx [m3 C/Wh]
0 100
3.1
100 250
3.2
250 500
3.3
500 750
3.4
750 1000
3.5
Then, the power extracted by the fan is subtracted from the power dissipated in the enclosure
and the calculation is performed according to the Reference Standard without natural
ventilation openings.
For further calculation details, see the Reference Standard.

6.3.

Air-conditioning
Air-conditioning is not taken into account in the Reference Standard; in this case, the
software uses the formulas given below.
As a rule, the use of air-conditioning shows that ambient temperature is greater than the

Overtemperature calculation tool User Guide Page 11

interior temperature of the enclosure: in this case, the contribution of the thermal power that
is transmitted through the surface of the board must be summed to the power losses due to
the devices, the cables, etc.
This contribution is obtained from the following formula:
where

Pa = Kf Ae (Te - Ti)
Pa = Power entering the enclosure through the environment [W]
Ae = Effective cooling area [m2]
Te = External temperature [C]
Ti = Interior temperature [C]
Kf = Thermal exchange coefficient (depending on the board wall material; in our case
it is Kf = 5.5 [W / m2 C])

The air-conditioning power to be installed is given by this formula:


where

Pc = Pt /Kx
Pc = Air-conditioning power to be installed [W]
Kx = Cooling efficiency of the air-conditioning
Pt = Total power loss in the board (Pa included) [W]

The Kx factor, which is a function of the ambient temperature and the temperature you want
to obtain inside the board, is given by the manufacturer of the air-conditioning system. For
ABB air-conditioners, Kx is obtained from the diagram shown below (only ambient
temperatures in the 20 - 55C range and interior temperatures in the 20 - 45C range can be
considered).
The software adds the power Pa to the power dissipated inside the board, subtracts the power
removed by the air-conditioning and then performs the calculation according to the Reference
Standard without natural ventilation openings.
For further details on the calculation process, see the Reference Standard.

7. Printouts
The thermal calculation module offers ad hoc report forms as a function of the Cooling system adopted; printed
reports contain all the parameters needed for the thermal dimensioning calculation: both the input data (dimensions of
the board, installation modalities) and the results (temperatures, power losses).
The items Customer, Plant, Project/Quotation, Board, Designer and Date that appear in the heading of the printed
documents can be added to the calculation report through the main menu Data command.
If they are not associated with a numerical value, the items Total power losses, Losable power and Losable power
still available (residual) will not be taken into account.
