Individual oversize copies of curves listedabove printed on onion-skin paper areavailable in limited quantity from:
Cutler-HammerWestinghouse &Cutler-Hammer ProductsFive Parkway CenterPittsburgh, PA 15220
When ordering onion-skin curves, use num-ber at bottom of page where curve appears,i.e., SC-4340-80. Requests for full sets ofcurves will not be honored.
Voltages shown in curve headings aremaximum at which the breaker may beapplied. Interrupting capacity of individualbreaker is tabulated on each curve.

When adjustable rating plugs are used, short delay pickup settingstrack the selected position of the adjustable rating plug. Forexample, with an adjustable 250 amp rating plug set at 50% andthe short delay pickup set at 4X, the short delay pickup is250 X 50% X 4 - 500 amps.
The threshold point changes with the ampere value of the ratingplug.

Catalog Type PB Circuit Breakers, 1000 Amperes, 2 and 3 Poles,600 Volts Ac Max.
Application and coordination curves based on 40°C ambientcold start, connected with four (4) feet of 75°C rated wiresize and tested in open air with current in all poles.
For single pole tests use dummy fuses or bypass the Tri-Pacfuses; otherwise, results may not agree with curve.
