Selective Coordination Productivity Through Protection Seminar Series
Agenda Selective Coordination • What is selective coordination • Mandatory Requirements • Why mandatory • How to comply with fuses • Benefits of fusible system • Cooper Bussmann solutions • Resources
LINE SIDE KRP-C-1200SP LOAD SIDE LPS-RK-600SP What is Selective Coordination • For the full range of possible overcurrents • Only closest upstream overcurrent protective device from overcurrent opens • Other upstream (larger) overcurrent protective devices do not open Fault Only this fuse opens
Selective Coordination (NEC®) Article 100 Definition Article 700 Emergency Systems Coordination (Selective) Localization of an overcurrentcondition to restrict outages to the circuit or equipment affected, accomplished by the choice of overcurrent protective devices and their ratings or settings. 700.27 Coordination. Emergency system(s) overcurrent devices shall be selectively coordinated with all supply side overcurrent protective devices (Two exceptions apply for 700.27 and 701.18) (Wording for 701.18 and 708.54 is the similar except for the type system)
Without Selective Coordination With Selective Coordination Loads Unnecessarily Blacked Out No Unnecessary Load Blackouts Selective Coordination System Prospective OPENS NOT AFFECTED Opens Fault Fault Not Affected Unnecessary Power Loss
D 100A 100A 45A 45A 0.1s 0.01s Lack of Selective Coordination • Many people mistakenly assume that a lower ampere rated fuse will always open before a larger ampere rated fuse • If fuse curves cross, larger upstream fuse and downstream fuse can both open for overcurrents on the loadside of 45A fuse (not selectively coordinated)
800 800A 200 200A 30 X 30A X 0.1 0.01 Lack of Selective Coordination • Many people mistakenly assume that a lower ampere rated circuit breaker will always open before a larger ampere rated circuit breaker • Where the circuit breakers cross, it is interpreted to not be selectively coordinated See
With Selective Coordination No Unnecessary Load Blackouts Selective Coordination System • To achieve selective coordination for electrical systems requires engineering analysis and proper overcurrent protective device selection • For most electrical systems, selective coordination is a desirable design consideration • For some electrical systems, selective coordination is mandatory (limited number of building types and then usually only few circuits) OPENS NOT AFFECTED Fault
Summary of Requirements: Selective Coordination Selective Coordination requirements • 100 Definition: Coordination Selective (2005) • 517.26 Required for Essential Electrical Systems (2005) • 620.62 Required for Circuits with multiple Elevators (1993) • 700.9(B)(5)(b) Exception. OCPDs permitted at alternate source or for equipment (2008) • 700.27 Required for Emergency Systems (2005) • 701.18 Required for Legally Required Standby Systems (2005) • 708.54 Required for Critical Operations Power Systems (COPS) (2008)
Selective Coordination Requirements Why? • Increases system reliability to deliver power • Focus on the load! Availability of power to vital loads as long as possible • Life Safety • Public safety and national security (COPS) • Increases system reliability to power vital loads even during emergencies and disasters • Facilitates restoration of power to affected loads Fault NOT AFFECTED OPENS
Selective Coordination Includes the Entire Circuit Path, Thru Both Sources Alternate Source Normal Source • From a vital load to the alternate source, the OCPDs shall be selectively coordinated ATS N E Panel
Selective Coordination Includes the Entire Circuit Path, Thru Both Sources Alternate Source • From a vital load to the alternate source, the OCPDs shall be selectively coordinated • For a vital load to the normal source main, the OCPDs shall be selectively coordinated Normal Source ATS N E “Emergency system(s) overcurrent devices shall be selectively coordinated with allsupply side overcurrent protective devices” This wording is inclusive of the the normal source path OCPDs Panel
Selective Coordination Requirements • NEC® 620.62 Elevator Circuits (since 1993) • Requires selective coordination on circuit paths when multiple elevators are on a feeder. Required since 1993 to ensure safety of human life especially during emergency egress • Purpose of this requirement? • Maximize continuity of service • Quicker restoration of power
How to Selectively Coordinate with Fuses? Let’s take a look at what it takes to selectively coordinate fuses
1200A Fuse Melting LINE SIDE KRP-C-1200SP Tm Tc AVAILABLE SHORT-CIRCUIT CURRENT LOAD SIDE LPS-RK-600SP 600A Fuse Clearing Tc Selective Coordination- Fuses 1200A fuse melting energy must be greater than 600A fuse clearing energy
Selective Coordination (SPD p112) Load Side Fuse No plotting required! Line Side Fuse LOW-PEAK® : LOW-PEAK® 2:1 Line:Load Ratio
Fuse Selectivity Ratio Example 1 Circuit Path Selectively Coordinated Loadside Fuse Low-Peak® KRP-C-800SP Lineside Fuse Low-Peak LPJ-400SP Low-Peak LPJ-100SP 800/400 = 2:1only 2:1needed Selective Coordination achieved 400/100= 4:1 only 2:1 needed Selective Coordination achieved between these two fuses Overloads or faults of any level up to 200,000A
Fuse Selectivity Ratio Example 2 • What about branch panelboard applications, such as lighting? • Use the Quik-Spec™ Coordination Panelboard Low-Peak KRP-C-800SP Low-Peak LPJ-200SP Low-Peak CUBEFuse TCF20RN Branch circuits: CCPB disconnect with CUBEFuse
Benefits of Fuse Selective Coordination It is simple with Cooper Bussmann fuses • Just follow the fuse selectivity ratios: 2:1 for Low-Peak® Fuses • No need to do complex short-circuit current studies (up to 200kA) • No need to plot time-current curves to analyze fuse selective coordination: use the selectivity ratios • In addition: • High interrupting rating • Excellent current-limitation • Excellent protection of components • Arc flash mitigation
Selective Coordination Cooper Bussmann Fuses • Recommend design: • TCF(amp)RN CUBEFuse® 1 to 60A (Branch Panel) • LPJ(amp)SP Class J 1 to 600A • LPS-RK(amp)SP Class RK1 1 to 600A LPN-RK(amp)SP • KRP-C(amp)SP Class L 601 to 6000A CUBEFuse TCF(amp)RN LPJ(amp)SP KRP-C(amp)SP LPS-RK(amp)SP
