To select a miniature circuit breaker, use the following procedure:
1. Determine the inrush correction factor from the following table.


Inrush Ratio Correction Table
Inrush Ratio 1:1 to 1:4 1:5 1:6 1:7 1:8
Factor 1.3 1.4 1.5 1.6 1.7
  

Note:For resistive loads use inrush correction factor of 1.0.

2. Determine the temperature correction factor from the following table.

200 °F

Factor 1.0 1.1 1.2 1.3 1.4 1.5 1.6
  

3. Determine the sealed current of the load being protected.

4. Multiply the sealed current by the two correction factors and select the closest higher ampere rating.

Example — For a solenoid with sealed current of 0.5 A, an inrush ratio of 1:8, and an ambient temperature of +110 °F (43.7 °C), (0.5 x 1.7 x 1.15 = 0.9775), select the 1.0 A miniature circuit breaker. Tripping time of the miniature circuit breaker is determined from the table below. Divide the miniature circuit breaker value by the temperature correction factor from the Ambient Temperature Correction Table above to determine the actual rated current referenced in the table below.

Note: When several breakers are rail mounted adjacent to each other, the no-trip current will be 80% of rated current at 70 °F (21.1 °C).
