ABSTRACT:
A circuit interrupter includes a circuit arrangement for sampling a conditioned current value and determining operating characteristics related to the current flow through an electrical circuit. Also included is a circuit arrangement for comparing the operating characteristics to preselectable tripping parameters and circuit arrangement for initiating a trip condition when an operating characteristic exceeds a corresponding tripping parameter. Additionally, a circuit arrangement for selecting and displaying operating information in an understandable format and in an easily accessible position on the circuit interrupter is also included.
