VCP-WXC Vacuum circuit breakers Xtra capabilities and enhanced features Features • The VCP-WXC, Eaton’s medium voltage ANSI breaker platform’s newest addition, features Xtra capability to meet today’s circuit protection needs. 15 kV, 63 kA, 1200–3000A drawout vacuum circuit breaker 62% DC Component that exceeds IEEE® requirements and is used in applications with high impedance/ resistance ratios (X/R) 175 kA peak close and latch and momentary rating exceeds IEEE preferred rating of 164 kA Demonstrated Out-of-Phase switching rating of 31.5 kA rms for industry applications such as power plants Additional vacuum interrupter very fast TRV testing up to 10 kV per microsecond Enhanced vacuum interrupter low frequency testing as low as 4 Hz for use with adjustable frequency drives Available as drawout with the option of six wheel roll-on-the-floor configuration Control circuit and wiring enhancements • Dedicated dry contact for spring-charged indication; this extra contact can be wired out to the panel for visual indication that the breaker is charged Enhanced wiring with a newly detailed wiring schematic Superior environmental capability, anti-radiation wire for special applications such as power plant use Control wiring terminated with ring terminals for reliable connections Application The VCP-WXC is ideal for large power plant and industrial applications where the highest interrupting and momentary ratings are required for distribution circuits. The VCP-WXC complements the VCP-WG generator circuit breakers for applications when very high inductance provides challenges to sys
