Typical operating time values: opening 45 ms, closing 75 ms, and reclosing 300 ms(18 cycles). K=1 .0, therefore E=E/K and I=KI, refer to the Consulting Application Catalog for further information. Rated and Tested also for Rapid Re-closing Capability O - 0.3s - CO. Not rated for Rapid Re-closing. At 23kV rms (Rated Max Voltage/K), Rated maximum symmetrical interrupting capability = 35kA rms (K x I). For Force Air Cooled Fixed Breaker Applications, consult Eaton.The ANSI C37.06 Standard requires 150kV BIL. If higher BIL levels are required, please refer to the “C” breakers. If you require 50 ms (3 cycle) interrupting time, please refer to the “C” breakers.The Standard Breaker is not rated for capacitor switching. If you require capacitor switching, please refer to the “C” breakers.
