, Description:
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present disclosure relates to the field of circuit breaker, and more specifically relates to, an Infinity of Things (IoT) based electronics trip units (ETUs) for circuit breaker communications.

BACKGROUND
[0002] Background description includes information that may be useful in understanding the present invention. It is not an admission that any of the information provided herein is prior art or relevant to the presently claimed invention, or that any publication specifically or implicitly referenced is prior art.
[0003] Electrical switching apparatus, such as circuit breakers, provide protection for electrical systems from electrical fault conditions such as, for example, current overloads, short circuits, abnormal voltage and other fault conditions. Typically, circuit breakers include an operating mechanism which opens electrical contact assemblies to interrupt the flow of current trough the conductors of an electrical system in response to such fault conditions. A circuit breaker is an automatically operated electrical switch designed to protect an electrical circuit from damage caused by overcurrent, typically resulting from an overload or short circuit. Its basic function is to interrupt current flow after a fault is detected. Unlike a fuse, which operates once and then must be replaced, a circuit breaker can be reset (either manually or automatically) to resume normal operation.
[0004] Circuit breaker is a switching device designed to make, carry and break the circuit. A circuit breaker is an automatically operated electrical switch designed to protect an electrical circuit from damage caused by overcurrent, typically resulting from an overload or short circuit. Circuit breakers are generally installed to protect equipment from overcurrent (than its rated current) situations, for example, when a short circuit or ground fault occurs in an electrical supply conductor. Upon the occurrence of any such overcurrent condition, electrical contacts inside circuit breaker get opened, and stop supply of electrical current to equipment. Designs for circuit breakers generally include accommodations for both high quiescent currents and high withstand currents. To maintain a high withstand current rating, the contacts must be locked closed at the current withstand rating and be able to withstand the large electrodynamics repulsion forces generated by the current flow. With the increase of industry size and automation, the requirement of protection devices has also increased.
[0005] Air Circuit Breaker (ACB) is an electrical device used to provide Overcurrent and short-circuit protection for electric circuits over 800 Amps to 10K Amps. These are usually used in low voltage applications below 450V. These systems can find in Distribution Panels (below 450V). Air circuit breaker is circuit operation breaker that operates in the air as an arc extinguishing medium, at a given atmospheric pressure. There are several types of Air circuit breakers and switching gears available in the market today that is durable, high-performing, easy to install and maintain. The air circuit breakers have completely replaced oil circuit breakers. Air Circuit Breaker (ACB) is an electrical device used to provide over current and short-circuit as well voltage based protection for electric circuits. It is a combination of electronics and mechanical devices. The electronics trip unit is the part of a circuit breaker that senses the fault current and gives command to opens the circuit in the event of overload, short circuit or ground fault as well voltage based protection. The electronics trip unit is the brain of the circuit breaker which continuously monitors current and voltage of the bus bar and act instantaneously when detect any fault in the system.
[0006] In the air circuit breaker if electronics trip unit doesn’t work properly there is no any other option to clear the fault which can cause the major damage to the electrical system, hence healthiness of the electronics trip is very important in case of air circuit breakers. At On-field, Breakers are installed at different places with different system settings based CT’s current ratings and others settings also. But some breakers have same CT’s ratings. It means user needs to set same system settings. Every time users want to set other setting’s also like Unit settings, Module settings etc. Alertness required from user side, whether CT ratings get change, If it is changed then, users need to set all settings once again within time of breaker “ON-LOAD” condition. Manual settings are required more time to set all settings.
[0007] However in the conventional circuit breaker, in existing electronic trip units there is no option, copy settings are like system, unit or modules from/to many breakers. Further, in the existing circuit breaker, if user wants to change or keep the same settings of Breaker 1 as Breaker 2, there is no option for the same operation. It is done by manually one by one. If it is done by manually there is chance of human error. Also it takes much more time and it is depend upon the numbers of Breakers. At “ONLOAD” Breaker, user wants to change the settings same as other Breakers. Furthermore, in the existing circuit breaker, at same time, if fault current occurred and fault current cannot get cleared by Smart Electronics Trip unit (SETU). Due to this fatal will get occurred and also power subsystem gets damage.
[0008] Whereas there is certainly nothing wrong with existing circuit breaker, nonetheless, there still exists a need to provide an efficient, effective, reliable, and improved system utilizing an Infinity of Things (IoT) based electronics trip units (ETUs) for circuit breaker communication. Further, there is also a need to provide a system which can copy and transfer few or all settings, such as system setting, unit setting or module setting, from one breaker to another breaker based on Infinity of Things (IoT) with high speed and accurately. Further, there is a need of a system to change settings, copy and transfer with less time and error free as compared to manual operations. Furthermore there is a need of a system to assist in different configuration of breakers at any time and from any place based on cloud systems.
