Circuit Breaker Enclosures

Resolution:
NOTE: This information will generally apply to ALL the Molded Case Circuit Breaker Enclosures(The F-frame, B-Frame, H-frame, the J-frame, the L-frame, the M-frame and P-Frame). But for the video a J250S was used.



The wiring diagram on the circuit breaker enclosures will be located on, one of the inside sidewalls of the enclosure. All the necessary information for the enclosure will be on the wiring diagram and will contain the following;
1) Catalog and series number of the enclosure
2) What type of Circuit breakers that can be used
3) Any accessory that can be used in the enclosure, like the solid neutral and equipment ground kit
4) The UL listed catalog number Prefixes for the breakers that can be used in the enclosure
5) Maximum wire sizes for the enclosure(NOTE: Sometimes the breaker can accept larger wire, BUT the enclosure wire bending space will be limited to what the wiring diagram shows)
6) The Wiring schematics
7) The Short Circuit Current Rating information for each breaker at each voltage level
8) The Date code. The date code will be an ink stamp, generally located on the inside back wall of the enclosure. The Date Code will be a 5 or 6 digit code and will read as follows; first two digits = year, the 2nd two digits = week of the year, the 5th digit = the day of the week and the last digit(if used) = the shift. For example, 183241 is year - 2018, week of year -32, day of week - 4 and shift - 1. (Aug. 9th, 2018)

Issue: 
What would cause an EPF2 fault on the ATV61 drive with an Ethernet IP card?

Product Line:

Environment:
All

Cause:
Using an Allen Bradley PLC trying to access assemblies 103 and 104, and the drive has not been set up per case 2 example as recommended in the Ethernet IP VW3A3316 manual.

Resolution:
Case 2 programming example is as follows:

• Menu 1.6
• Ref 1= Communications card
• Profile= Separate controls
• CMD switching= C312
• CMD channel 1= Communication card
• CMD channel 2= Terminal control
• Ref 2 Switching= C313
• Ref 2 Channel= AI1 or AI2

We get asked this a lot – and rightly so. We all want to be as efficient with our energy and reduce our energy bills. Easy ways you can make immediate savings are:

1. Installing LED lights – they use less energy, last longer and lower your environmental impact.
2. Stop paying for standby power – even when your devices are on ‘standby mode’ they’re using power. If you’re not using them, turn them off.
3. Check your devices’ eco settings – and turn them on! They’ll save power for you.

If you’re looking for a long-term solution, check out our Wiser Energy Management options or speak with your electrician about the best options for you. Installing Wiser Energy management solutions allows you to use the Wiser by SE app and keep track of your usage, maximise your solar, and save on bills.
