Definition of Circuit Breaker Timing
The timing of a breaker is the time measurement of themechanical operations in order to verify its integrity andgood working order.
Mechanical operation means all operation or cycle ofoperation the breaker is intended to do without beingconnected to the power grid.

Importance, Need of Test
Why it is necessary to know CB operating time ?
Operating timings are monitored to indicate any problems in operatingmechanisms, alignments of main/arcing contacts and also differencebetween two breaks of the same breaker pole. If these timings are not withinorder, it may lead to over stressing of one particular interrupting chamber.
It is a necessary to time each breaker, in order to have its functional
signature. Incorrect operation can have unfortunate consequences on theequipment or the substation personnel. Also, the out of service losses ofrevenue and the repair costs.
Timing tests are done first in the factory during the routine tests and afterinstallation, during the commissioning tests.
They have to be done periodically in order to validate the good working orderand reliability of the breaker.
Timing tests are also a powerful tool for troubleshooting faulty breakers.

Description
In order to measure the operation times of a breaker, we need a devicecapable of detecting the instant of contacts state changing starting from thepoint the order was launched.
This device sends electric signals via cables connected to each contact, inthe case of several contacts in series each signal has its own source toeliminate interference.
The signal has two possible states. The first is when the contact is closed,the second when the contact is open. All is recorded for consultation andanalysis.
These special devices are called timing machines or circuit breakeranalyzers. They are designed to generate all the needed signals andincorporate a data acquisition system.

6. Breaker operation SEQUENCE selector switch.
Their are two main operations on breaker is Close & Trip.In most of the cases it has to execute on demand a combination ofthe basic operations, called cycles.The most popular are the following:
1. Trip Free, (C-O): simulates a trip on short circuit after a CLOSE.
The breaker must open instantly.
2. Reclose, (O-C): Simulates a fast close after short circuit trip toreestablish the current.
3. Reclose-open, (O-0.3s-C-O): Simulates a RECLOSE on shortcircuit. The breaker should clear the fault successfully.
4. (C-O)-15 sec-(C-O)-15-sec-(C-O) : Simulates a multiple close aftershort circuit trips in purpose of reestablishing the current, hopingthat the short circuit is disappeared. This cycle is mostly used in theMedium voltage applications.

10. Timing channel input terminals.
From these terminals we made connection between CB Main contact& TM-1600.
These channel also known as verification circuit .Each verificationcircuit includes a voltage source that injects current oncontact making; a detection circuit, to detect the currentand determine if the contact is closed.

Precaution before starting test
PRECUATIONa) Ensure that SFT/PTW is taken as per norms.
b) There should not be any joints in testing cables.
c) Test leads should not touch any live part.
d) Never connect the test set to energized equipment.
e) The ground cable must be connected first and removed at last.
f) High voltage plugs should be free from moisture during installation and
operation.
g) Circuit Breaker Analyzer body should be earthed ( if separate earth is provided).
h) It should be ensured that whole testing equipment along with testing procedures areavailable at testing site. Testing must be carried out in presence of testing personnelonly.
i) Surface/terminals should be cleaned where the connections for testing are to be made.
j) Clean earth point with sand paper/wire brush where earth terminal is to be
provided.
k) Ensure that all the poles trip simultaneously through single close/trip command.

Procedure of test
1.Check that :The poles or the cubicles are correctly secured to the ground.
The electrical connections between the circuit breaker and control cubicle are made inaccordance with the electric circuit diagrams.
When the measurements are performed on energised substation, disconnect thealarms or commands can be transmitted to the control.
2. Wire up the time recorder according to FIG.
3.Energise the time recorder after having checked that it is properly connected to earth.4. Adjust the time delays of the switching operations, no time delay is necessary for theoperations C, O and CO. For the switching cycle O-(t)-CO, delay the C with the value(t) specified in the Inspection Results File (contractual cycle).
For example : t = 0.3 s (300ms) normally
5.Perform the switching cycle desired.
6.Place the print selector onto program 1.
7.Press the READY button, the red lamp lights up, turn the START knob before thelamp goes out.
8.The report will be automatically issued after the switching operation.

Analysis of test report
Analysis of the time recorder report
Time of the circuit breaker contacts on closure = Time when the pole comesinto contact - time of appearance of the voltage at the terminals of themaking coil.
Time of the circuit breaker contacts on opening = Time of the pole contactscoming out - time of appearance of the voltage at the terminals of thetripping coil.
Short-circuit time = Time of the pole contacts coming out - time of entry intothe contacts.
Time of the auxiliary contacts type a or type b on closure = Time for the Csa or b switching over on closure - time of appearance of the voltage at theterminals of the making coil.
Time of the auxiliary contacts type a or type b on opening = Time for theCs a or b switching over on opening - time of appearance of the voltage atthe terminals of the tripping coil.
