Square D™ brand, Type VR medium voltage circuit breakers manufactured by Schneider Electric have been on the market for more than 30 years. Their quality, reliability, and performance are widely recognized across North America, as well as everywhere ANSI applications are required worldwide.

Standard features include:

• 3-cycle interrupting rating

• ANSI rated per C37.06, C37.09, C37.54

• UL Listed

• Spring-charged, stored-energy operating mechanism

• Permanently mounted manual charging handle

• Two “a” and “b” spare contacts

• Separate wheels that roll directly to floor level from lower cell for maintenance

The circuit breaker contacts are located where indicators are readily accessible.

The front accessible mechanism allows for ease of maintenance. The circuit breaker operates at a high speed and, because of the hermetically sealed vacuum interrupters, has a longer life cycle.

With their wide range of ratings and benefits, the Type VR circuit breakers are offered not only in Masterclad™ medium voltage switchgear, but also in semi-assembled switchgear and OEM components.

Generator Circuit Breakers When selecting a circuit breaker for a generator application, there are three different scenarios to consider.

For generator applications in which X/R < 17, all Schneider Electric VR circuit breakers can be used.

For generator applications in which 17 < X/R < 50, Schneider Electric VR 63kA generator circuit breakers can be used for system source faults. These circuit breakers have met the requirements of IEEE C37.013A.

63kA Generator Circuit Breakers

For Class M2 G2 generator applications as defined by IEC/IEEE 62271-37- 013:2015, the circuit breakers listed in the table below have successfully completed testing for:

• System source short circuit for generators rated to 100 MVA

• Generator source short circuit for generators rated to 100 MVA

• Transformers rated to 100 MVA

• Out of phase switching
