Extended Instantaneous Protection (EIP) allows the WL breaker to be applied at the withstand rating
of the breaker with minus 0% tolerance; that means no instantaneous override whatsoever. EIP further
enables the circuit breaker to be applied up to the full instantaneous rating of the breaker on systems
where the available fault current exceeds the withstand rating.

Ground Fault Module cannot be removed after installation.

Questions and answers
How do we field exchange an ETU745 breaker? The existing 1600 amp 120/208 volt breaker goes into alarm at about 750 amps and sometimes trips. We've hired a company to evaluate. Can this breaker be removed and replaced in the field?
Yes, the Siemens ETU745 breaker can be retrofit with a ground fault protection module, which implies that it is designed to allow field modifications such as removal and replacement.
