breaker trips as a result of the trip unit reacting to an
overcurrent condition. Opening as a result of a circuit
breaker’s manual open button, shunt trip or undervoltage
release does not cause the overcurrent trip switch to oper-
ate. The overcurrent trip switch has (2a 2b) Form C con-
tacts (Table 3.6).
The status of the contacts changes when the trip indica-
tor pops out. This permits the switch to be used as an
alarm or in conjunction with a spring release to block a
subsequent remote electrical closing signal.
Motor Operator - A Motor operator is an electric motor
assembly internally mounted in the circuit breaker
(Figures 3-55 and 3-56). It charges the closing springs
electrically for remote or local operation. The motor
operator can be factory or site installed (Table 3.7).
To convert a manually operated circuit breaker to an
electrically operated circuit breaker, a UL listed motor
operator kit is available.
