A circuit breaker is a

Answer Posted / randzu

Is an automated electrical power isolator, which under
fault/heathy conditions, breaks or make circuit of the
protected load or equipment through the command of
relay "refered to as the brain of electrical protection".
The combination of Circuit Breaker, Protection/Metering
Relay, Current/Voltage Transformers and Fuses make a
switchgear. Circuit Breaker alone CANNOT be regarded as a
Switchgear, as all the above mensioned equipment work
antagonistically to bring about the end result of
electrical system

We are preparing another project which involves Waste heat recovery from a 1 MW GE Engine. The Engine in particular gives out flue gas at 487Deg C with a flow rate of 5650 kg/hour and this can be cooled to 180 Deg C. This gives a thermal output of ~ 594 KW that is available for input to VAM via heat exchanger / boiler. Additionally 581 KW will be available from engine jacket water (temperature profile 80/ 80 Deg C and a flow rate of 50m3/hr) Our estimation is that 300 TR of cooling is possible with a suitable VAM machine(s). Please advise what is the most suitable arrangement with maximum TR and min Capital expenditure. plz reply me as early as possible

In Air circuit breaker LSIG protection unit is used. Without fault in cables (2 runs 3Cx150Sq.mm Copper, 1Kv grade, XPLE armored cable IR value is more than 550Mohm @ 500V Megger) and load section Long time Overcurrent protection is triggers and trips the unit. We changed LSIG protection with new factory tested unit. Even then fault is persisting. Please suggest the possible causes
