    The document discusses types of low voltage circuit breakers (LVCB) used in electrical installations, including miniature circuit breakers (MCB), residual current circuit breakers (RCCB), and earth leakage circuit breakers (ELCB). It covers ratings for LVCB, describing frame-size rating and how a circuit breaker is assigned a rating corresponding to the highest current-level setting tripping unit that can be fitted. The document is presented by Dr. Karim Hassan Youssef from Alexandria University's Faculty of Engineering.

    LVCB Rating

    • Frame‐size rating
    • A circuit breaker which can be fitted with overcurrent
    tripping units of different current level‐setting ranges, is
    assigned a rating which corresponds to the highest current‐
    level‐setting tripping unit that can be fitted.
    • Example
    • A Compact NSX630N circuit breaker can be equipped with 3
    electronic trip units from 250 A to 630 A. The size of the
    circuit breaker is 630 A.
