The LSI designation means it provides long-time (L), short-time (S), and instantaneous (I) protection — covering overload, short-circuit with time delay for selectivity, and high-fault clearing. The FF suffix indicates fixed front terminals, a common configuration for panelboard or switchboard mounting where the breaker bolts directly to busbars.
The EKIP DIP LSI trip unit is field-adjustable via DIP switches for the L, S, and I thresholds, which lets the commissioning engineer set selectivity curves without swapping trip units. For a 800 A frame, the XT6S typically handles fault currents up to 65 kA at 480 VAC — check the specific interrupting rating on the nameplate for your system voltage.
