Type B MCB: Type B devices are generally suitable for domestic applications. They are designed to trip at fault currents of 3 - 5 times rated current.
Type C MCB: Type C devices are the normal choice for commercial and industrial applications These devices are designed to trip at 5 - 10 times rated current
Type D MCB: The Type D devices have more limited applications, normally in industrial use where high inrush currents may be expected. Type D devices are designed to trip at 10 - 20 times.
The ratio of full load current to short circuit current = 1/6 Xsc = j/(1/6) External reactance required = j*((1/6) - 0.06)) = j*0.106 pu Full load current = (40*1000)/(√3*15) = 1539.6 A Per unit reactance = j*0.106 = (I*Xr)/V j*0.15 = (1539.6*Xb)/((15/√3)*1000)) = 0.60 ohm
Differential Pilot Wire Protection is simply a differential protection scheme applied to feeders. Several differential schemes are applied for protection of line but Mess Price Voltage balance system and Translay Scheme are most popularly used.
1.6 inches = 1.6 inches x 1,000 mils per inch = 1,600 mils 0.25 inch = 0.25 inch x 1,000 mils per inch = 250 mils Area = 1,600 x 250 = 400,000 square mils
