Zusammenfassung:A protection apparatus for a circuit breaker disposed in a circuit to be protected uses a solenoid configured to operate the circuit breaker on command, an undervoltage release (UVR) sensing apparatus configured to produce an UVR signal in response to a line voltage of the circuit to be protected falling below a predetermined level, and a shunt trip (ST) sensing apparatus configured to produce a ST signal when it senses a ST command. A controller operably connected to the UVR sensing apparatus, the ST sensing apparatus, and the solenoid, is configured to receive the UVR and ST signals when produced and controls the solenoid to open the breaker in response to receipt by the controller of either of the UVR and ST signals.
