Parameters
a
and
b
can take on the following
values according to the curve selected.
• Normal inverse time curve (NI):
a
= 0.02
b
= 0.14.
• Very inverse time curve (VI):
a
= 1
b
= 13.5.
• Extremely inverse time curve (EI):
a
= 2
b
= 80.
Selection of to> trip time
The trip time of the protection is adjusted by using
the Dip Switches as shown in the figure.
By means of the Dip Switches, the value of K is set
which, when replaced in the previous relation-
ships, determines trip time to>.
The following settings are possible:
• 16 trip times (to>),
(K = 0.1...1.6 with steps of 0.1)
0.1
0.2 0.3 0.4 0.5
0.6 0.7 0.8 0.9 1.0
1.1 1.2 1.3 1.4 1.5 1.6
Definite time curve
For protection with definite time, the relationship
between trip time and overcurrent is given by the
following formula.
The following settings are possible:
• 16 threshold current values (Io>) (1)
0.100 0.150 0.200 0.250
0.350 0.400 0.450 0.500
0.600 0.650 0.700 0.750
0.850 0.900 0.950 1 x In
OFF
(1) The unit guarantees no entry in the threshold for
currents under 1.05 x Io> set and guarantees entry in
the threshold for currents higher than 1.30 x Io> set.
Selection of type of Io> curve
Four different time-current relationships can be
selected.
Fixed time curve (
b
= 2)
For protection with fixed time (DT), the trip time is
given by the following relationship.
