IAC curves
The curves for the General Electric type IAC relay family are derived from the formulae:
Eq. 5-10
where
T = operate time (in seconds)
TDM = Multiplier setting
I = Input current
I
pkp
= Pickup Current setting
A to E = constants defined in the table
t
r
= characteristic constant defined in the table
T
RESET
= reset time in seconds (assuming energy capacity is 100% and RESET is “Timed”)
Table 5-31: GE type IAC inverse time curve constants
Table 5-32: GE type IAC curve trip times
