WE are using a 63A MCCB(SIEMENS MAKE) for one of the feeder in LV substation panel.It is supplying to a lighting & power socket DB.Settings in the MCCB is Ir = 63 * 1 , Isd = 8 times of Ir , tsd = 0.5 sec( I2 t off).
Sometimes this MCCB is tripping .But no trip in DB MCB.
Can anybody tell me reason ?
From where i can know about the MCCB settings?

do you have current injector ?

if you do, you may test the mccb by injecting 63A.

there could be many reasons for tripping
1 if the cummulative output current (all lights and sockets etc) exceeds 63 amps
2 if your had a circuit that required a large inrush current (motor or transformer etc)
3
