the Mag-Gard or PowerPact selection tables in the Square D
Digest.
• These circuit breakers are suitable for motors with locked-rotor
indicating code letters based on applicable national codes and
standards. For other motors, consult your local Schneider
Electric field sales representative.

a. For ET1.0I and ET1.0M electronic trip units, adjust instantaneous trip
(Ii) by adjusting switch A (see Figure 107). Switch settings are
multiples of the frame rating.
b. For Micrologic electronic trip units, see the instruction bulletin
shipped with the circuit breaker.
After obtaining the motor full load current from the motor nameplate, select
an adjustable trip set-point to test start the motor. Further adjustments may
