What are the difference between C-Curve and D-Curve for
MCB's.
Answer Posted / ankit
Based on the type of application MCB are classified as
B,C,D,K curve type.
Specifically, these curves denotes the instantenous
tripping current, if fault current crosses the designated
mark.
B : 2-5 times the rated current.
C: 5-10 " " " "
D : 10-15 " " " "
C- curves type are used for heavy currents in normal
working.(e.g. Heaters, Gyesers, Irons)
D-curves types are used for heavy inrush currents.(Motors
etc)

a)In a 3-phase 4-wire circuit, a circuit breaker is selected to protect the circuit whose highest fault level is 6.6 MVA. Determine the required minimum breaking capacity in kA. (Note: Covert 3-phase power in terms of kA to find answer.) b)Using the below, determine the required minimum making capacity in kA as a “peak value”. Rate breaking capacity (Icn) ka: Icn<= 1.5 Factor = 1.41 1.5
