The minimum operation time is always limited by the setting
parameter t
Min
. In the example of Figure 2.3.22-4 the fastest
operation time, 0.15 s, is achieved when the slope is 2 Hz/s or
more. The leftmost curve in Figure 2.3.22-3 shows the inverse
characteristics with the same settings as in Figure 2.3.22-4.
Figure 2.3.22-3 Three examples of possible inverse df/dt operation time
characteristics. The slope and operation delay settings define the knee
points on the left. A common setting for t
Min
has been used in these three
examples. This minimum delay parameter defines the knee point positions
on the right.

Figure 2.3.22-4 An example of inverse df/dt operation time. The time to trip
will be 0.3 s, although the setting is 0.6 s, because the average slope 1 Hz/s
is steeper than the setting value 0.5 Hz/s.
