INTRODUCTION
Minature Circuit Breakers (MCBs),
with latest technology, offer an
ideal protection to the electrical
distribution system. Whatever
be the application, these MCBs
offer perfect overload and short
circuit protection, in B, C and D
types from 6A to 63A.
SALIENT FEATURES
MCBs having breaking capacity
of 10kA, 2 positions and 20kA, 3
positions.
Current limiting design - low
let-through energy.
Silver graphite contacts for
weld-free operation.
Trip-free mechanism ensures
tripping even if operating knob
is held forcibly in ON position.
Terminals on both sides, with
pressure plates suitable for 25
sq.mm cables.
Shrouded terminal on both sides
make MCBs finger - touch proof.
Neutral advance mechanism, i.e.
neutral contact opens last and
closes before phase contact,
which always ensures zero
potential before phase potential.
Padlocking facility in ON/OFF
position.

Neutral Advance Mechanism.
Operation even in case of neutral
failure i.e. it operates even if

fault, resetting is impossible
and it trips internally, even if
held in ON position forcibly.
Operates on Core Balance
Current Trasformer principle.
Provides optimum protection.
10kA ELCBs have following
4 Back -- Index Page -- Next
provide excellent protection even at
earth resistance of 330 ohms (for
extra safe voltage 10 volts), a device
up to 100 mA sensitivity may be
chosen where earth resistance is not
likely to exceed 30 Ohms. The earth
resistance is of no consequence when
considering protection from direct
contact and as such only 30 mA
sensitivity device should be chosen for
protection against direct contact. The
value of 30 mA* has been arrived at
as the 'no alternative disconnection
current' where an overwhelming
majority of individuals are unable to
disassociate voluntarity from the live
conductor, and instant automatic
interruption of supply is necessary.
FIRES
Protection form fires due to earth
leakage is best obtained by using
ELCB+MCB of 300mA or 500mA
sensitivity. Where downstream
distribution has been done through
30mA/100mA ELCB+MCB, some
degree of time discrimination may
be necessary by selecting the fire
protection devices with a small
deliberate delay (about 250
milliseconds).
MCB (LOAD CURRENT RATING)
The rated load currents of the
ELCB+MCB combination are 6A,
10A, 16A, 20A, 25A, 32A, 40A and
63A. The bimetal trip is so
adjusted that no tripping will occur
upto 1.3 times the rated current.
BREAKING CAPACITY
The combination features a high
breaking capacity of 9 kA at 440 V. This

EFFECT OF TEMPERATURE
The calibration of the ELCB device
being in conformity with BS 4293:
1983, the sensitivity of the device
will be between 50% and 100% of
the rated sensitivity.
The sensitivity of the ELCB+MCB
combination will be within permissible
limits when used in the temperature
range of -5to 50Centigrade.
EARTH LEAKAGE
The selection of sensitivity for
protection from electrocution should
be co-ordinated to the type and
quality of system earthing. While the

is recommended to be used as
the main incoming circuit breaker
instead of conventional iron clad
main switches. Further, downstream
distribution with this combination will
also replace DP/TPN interruption
and switching devices. The high
breaking capacity of 9kA at 440
V allows safe, fuseless distribution.
Typical short circuit faults in real life
situation do not exceed 3000A for
loads of even 63A.

APPLICATIONS
The use of ELCB+MCB will ensure
total foolproof and reliable protection
from all hazards of low and medium
voltage electricity. The operation of
the device being independent of
extraneous parameters (like supply
voltage, temperature, humidity etc.)
it provides dependable protection
from all conceivable electrical faults
which may cause electrocution,
fires and result in destruction of
life and property and excessive
metering due to leakage.
It is recommended to use,
ELCB+MCB combination for:
Residential premises as
main incoming protection after

and main switch.
