Overcurrent protection I>, I>>, I>>> (50/51)
The three-phase overcurrent unit comprises three separately
adjustable overcurrent stages, i.e. stage I>, I>> and I>>>.
The overcurrent unit measures the fundamental frequency
component of the phase currents.
Stage I> can be configured for definite time or inverse time
operation characteristic. Stage I>> and stage I>>> have
definite time characteristic.
Figure 2.2.1-1 shows the functional block diagram of stage I>.
