How is a shunt coil installed?
'Shunt' is an archaic term, meaning 'in parallel with'. So a 'shunt coil' is connected 'in parallel' with... With what, of course, depends upon what sort of device you are talking about. For example the field coil of a d.c. shunt-connected motor has its field winding connected in parallel ('shunt') with the supply.
What are the functions of shunt trip coil in ACB?
shunt trip coil used to trip the breaker automatically or manually.
How do you install shunt trip breaker?
A shunt trip breaker is installed like any other molded case breaker. The only difference is that it has an internal tripping coil that is usually connected to a C.T. The breaker is usually mounted in a MCC cabinet The top of the breaker is bolted to the MCC bus bars and the bottom of the breaker is connected to the load. The load conductors pass through the C.T.'s.

The breaker is usually mounted in a MCC cabinet The top of the breaker is bolted to the MCC bus bars and the bottom of the breaker is connected to the load. The load conductors pass through the C.T.'s which induces a current into the circuit to trip the tripping coil in the breaker.
Why shunt resistance used in ammeter and why is it connected in parallel?
An ammeter's coil requires very little current for full-scale deflection (fsd). So, to measure a current above its fsd value, most of that current must be allowed to bypass the coil. This is achieved by placing a very low value shunt resistance in parallel with the coil ('shunt' is an archaic word for 'parallel').
Why use shunt release in circuit breaker?
A secondary shunt releases (extra trip coil) is used forelectrical tripping of the circuit breaker by protectiverelays or manual control devices when more than onetrip coil is required.

How do you reset a shunt trip breaker?
A shunt trip breaker is reset the same way as an ordinary breaker, move the handle to the full off position and then to the full on position. First check the tripping circuit, sometimes a latch relay is used to hold the breaker shunt trip coil in the trip position. If this is the case then reset the latch relay first.
In what two ways can the rotation of a shunt connected dc motor be reversed?
DC shunt motor can be reversed by changing the polarity of either the armature coil or the field coil.
What voltage feeds the coil on a shunt trip breaker?
220V

What is the difference between helical spring and coil spring?
is helical coil and coil spring are the same

Does a shunt trip breaker work from a dry set of contacts?
Yes, but you need a power source, for the shunt trip coil voltage, in the circuit.
