A circuit breaker includes a microprocessor-based trip unit and a designator circuit including a plurality of jumper positions. Each jumper position corresponds to one digit of a four digit style number specifying which of a plurality of optional functions and features are incorporated in the specific trip unit. Each jumper position is a multitap voltage divider. Selection of one tap on each of the jumper positions causes a set of four analog voltages to be supplied to the trip unit. An analog-to-digital converter converts the analog voltages to a series of digital representations which are interpreted by the microcomputer as a style number used to command execution of a discrete set of instruction groups, with each instruction group corresponding to one of the optional functions and features.
