A shunt-trip coil is a built-in component of a shunt-trip circuit breaker. It is a magnetic coil that can be energized externally to make the breaker trip to shut off the flow of current.
For instance, fire sprinklers are sometimes required in the top of elevator shafts in case of a fire in the shaft. If the sprinklers were to spray water on the electric controls in the elevator cab, people could be hurt or killed, either from electrocution or from the elevator malfunctioning. In these cases, a shunt-trip breaker is installed in the circuit feeding the elevator controls, and the fire alarm system sends a trip signal if it detects waterflow from the sprinkler system. This trips the breaker and removes power from the elevator cab.
Once tripped, a shunt-trip breaker requires a person to reset it manually.

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.
What will happen to a shunt motor if a shunt field coil opens while the motor is running under light load?
Motor will rotate at very high speed leading to destructionAnswer from Kinindia.com
Is shunt a bypass resistance?
It is the resistance across the cell to invoke a constant draw. This makes the cell work efficiently under ideal conditions. To do it properly new cell management systems measure the temp. and voltage output and put a load on the cell that makes it work best.
What are the factors that influence the speed of the direct-current shunt motor with increasing load?
.The magnitude of the voltage and current of both the armature and shunt field coil. To decrease the speed when the load is increasing then increase the shunt field current while decreasing the armature voltage or current. To increase the speed while the load is increasing then increase the armature current while decreasing the shunt field current. The decreasing and increasing of these currents and voltages can be done by connecting a variable resistor in series or parallel with each of the armature and/or shunt field coil.
How can the direction of rotation of a DC shunt motor be reversed?
DC shunt motor can be reversed by changing the polarity of either the armature coil or the field coil.
Difference between shunt coil and tripping coil?
a shunt coil needs external supply & tripping coil gets supply from itself.
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.
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
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').
How do you connect 480volt and coil to fire alarm system?
I can only assume that you are attempting to connect 480VAC coil from a elevator to a fire system in order to shunt the elevator. In order to do this you will need a shunt trip breaker rated for this use.
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.
What are to methods of revesing a shunt motor?
Swap round the connections to the field coil or the armature, but not both.
Can you show me shunt trip diagram?
A shunt trip diagram typically illustrates the electrical connections and components involved in a shunt trip circuit, which is used to remotely trip a circuit breaker. It includes elements like the circuit breaker, shunt trip coil, power source, and control switch. The diagram shows how the control switch activates the shunt trip coil, causing the breaker to open and interrupt the circuit. For a specific diagram, it's best to refer to technical manuals or manufacturer specifications.
