A trip apparatus for a circuit interruption device that comprises a coil operatively connectable to a circuit interruption device. The coil is configured to selectively operate the circuit interruption device to interrupt when a current flowing through the circuit interruption device exceeds a threshold. The trip apparatus also includes a current measuring device configured to selectively measure a coil current flowing through the coil to determine a measured coil current signal. In addition, the trip apparatus includes a monitoring device configured to determine the derivative of the measured coil current signal and to perform a correlation of the derivative of the measured coil current signal and a reference derivative of a reference coil current signal to determine a correlation output. The monitoring device is further configured to compare the correlation output with a reference correlation threshold to determine whether an operating condition of the coil is normal or abnormal.

A circuit breaker includes at least one moveable contact. The moveable electrode is operably connected to a Thomson coil actuator that can separate and open the contacts of the circuit breaker. A sensor senses current or voltage in the circuit breaker. When a condition exists that triggers an opening action, a controller will use select a current level to apply to the Thomson coil actuator. The selected current level will vary based on the sensed current or voltage level. The controller will cause a driver to apply the selected current level to the Thomson coil actuator, and it will cause the contacts to separate and open. If the circuit breaker is a vacuum interrupter, the vacuum interrupter may employ a multi-section bellows in which each section has unique structural characteristics as compared to the other sections, so that different sections will dominate as the Thomson coil's speed of operation varies.
