What is Selection procedure for motor protection circuit breaker?

The selection of overload protection for motors is taken from a table in the electrical code book. It is based on the full load current rating of the motor.


Cause of a circuit breaking tripping?

Tripping is caused by excessive current, which is usually the result of a fault in cable or equipment. The circuit breaker is there for safety and it trips to prevent a possible fire starting.


What is the reason for using 250 percent multipler for sizing motor circuit breakers in NEC?

When a motor starts the circuit breaker sees an almost dead short. Until the motor starts generating a back EMF , which opposes the current flow when rotation starts, the current is high. If the breaker is sized to the motors full load amperage, each time the motor is started, the breaker will trip.


What is different between feeder breaker and motor breaker?

You have to be careful with terms in the electrical field, Example: Main Feeder Circuits will feed a Transformer for distribution and each of those main circuits might feed numbeous Motor control centers. However each of those circuits could be called a main feeder for the motor control center. Confusing. We have High Voltage Transmittion tansformered down for Distribution. So normally a Feeder Breaker will feed Main circuits that will be used for distribution. Example Your home panel will have a main feeder circuit to the whole panel and distribution breakers to you home.

Why you use cartridge fuse in control circuit of motor?

It is proper "control sense" to fuse the control circuit. It does not have to be just a cartridge fuse, in many cases it is a breaker. Depending on where the control voltage is obtained from, transformer from the incoming motor feed, separate source, or line voltage, there is always a chance that a component of the control circuit could fail, circuit protection would lessen the damage to other equipment in the control circuit. The fuse should be sized as close to the control current as possible.
