Overview
DOL, Reversing and Star-delta Configurations Determining the Short Circuit Current
Rating of a complete electrical panel
Motor Sizes: can be very challenging, especially
• 1/2…300 Hp if proper considerations are not
• 0.16…400 kW made during the initial stages of the
component selection process.
Global Voltages: Rockwell Automation has developed
• 380…400V, 50 Hz global SCCR Selection Tables for IEC
• 415V, 50 Hz Motor Starters based on common
• 440V, 50 Hz global motor voltages (50/60 Hz) and
short circuit current rating fault levels.
• 460V (480 Line), 60 Hz These tables provide a One-Line Bill of
• 500V, 50 Hz Material to quickly select motor starter
• 525V, 50 Hz components over a wide range of HP
• 575V (600 Line), 60 Hz or kW ratings based on common SCCR
application requirements.
• 690V, 50 Hz
In addition, Test Summary Letters
Standard Compliance: are available that summarize the test
• UL 508 Standard and High Fault SCCR parameters used to cover the applicable SCCR Selection Table & Test Summary Letter
motor starter configuration, motor
• UL 508 Combination Motor Controllers
voltage and short circuit fault rating.
• IEC 60947-4-1 Type 1 and Type 2 These Test Summary Letters are based on
short circuit coordination compliance to IEC and UL standards, and
• UL listing and certification are in most cases covered by third party
witness by Underwriters Laboratories
and conducted in Rockwell Automation
accredited test facilities.
