Ground fault module
The ground fault module (GFM) is used to detect current 
flowing through the grounding conductors which may present 
a hazardous condition. The module can be field added to an 
ETU745 or higher model as an upgrade but can’t be removed 
once installed. Residual sensing by phase vector summation or 
direct sensing can be selected on the module or via the setup 
of the ETU776. Ground fault modules may be ordered as 
alarm only or as alarm and trip. Alarm will provide a visual and 
communication notification. Alarm and trip model will trip the 
breaker in addition to alarm notification. 
Key lock-out
To lock the WL breaker in the “Open” position an optional key-
lock can be installed on the breaker. The key cylinder and lock-out 
assembly is mounted on the breaker and accessible via a knock-
out on the breaker front cover, after installation is complete. The 
key is removable only when the breaker is locked open. Keys can 
be ordered as keyed-alike for a Superior or Kirk key cylinder type.
If a custom key is required, order the key lock provision only.
Lock must be obtained by others. 
Operation counter
For monitoring the number of breaker operations (open and 
close) a numerical operations counter is available. This counter 
is only suitable for breakers equipped with the spring-charging 
motor option. The counter mounts to the motor assembly and 
will register manual and electrical breaker operations. Counter 
is non-resettable up to 100,000 operations. Counter ships with 
available pre-service operations for field setting 
to zero.

Breaker accessories and options
Auxiliary contacts 
Auxiliary contacts can be used to provide interlocking control 
or remote indication of the breakers main contact position (open 
or closed breaker). The Normally Open (NO) contacts are open 
when the breakers main contacts are open. The Normally Closed 
(NC) contacts are closed when the breakers main contacts are 
open. The contacts are wired individually to the secondary 
disconnects for user connectivity. See breaker wiring diagram 
for supply terminal locations.
Breaker status sensor (BSS)
BSS is an integrated circuit device that measures the internal 
breaker temperature, monitors breaker main contact position 
(open or closed), bell alarm status, shunt trip status, breaker 
ready-to-close and closing spring charged status. All status 
conditions and information is transmitted through the CubicleBus 
network as real-time data. A Com16 (Modbus), COM15 (PROFIBUS) 
or a BDA (breaker display adapter) accessory must be used to 
export the BSS CubicleBus data to external computer or monitoring 
equipment. Only one sensor per breaker is available. See breaker 
wiring diagram for supply terminal locations.
