<p>A circuit breaker protection system (100) includes a plurality of circuit breakers (106, 107, 108), each circuit breaker (106) of the plurality of circuit breakers (106, 107, 108) including a trip device (161) and a shunt trip device (162), and a first central processor (101) in communication with each circuit breaker (106) of the plurality of circuit breakers (106, 107, 108), the first central processor (101) being configured to perform a method of circuit breaker control. The method includes determining a status (305) for each circuit breaker (106), transmitting a trip signal (306) to each circuit breaker (106) based on a respective circuit breaker's status, establishing a priority (307) of each circuit breaker (106) in response to a respective circuit breaker's trip signal, and transmitting a shunt trip signal (404, 405) to each circuit breaker (106) based on a respective circuit breaker's priority.
