can be more severe than the heating effects and therefore a separate unbalance
protection is used.
Unbalances in other connected loads in the same busbar can also affect the motor.
A voltage unbalance typically produces 5 to 7 times higher current unbalance.
Because the thermal overload protection is based on the highest TRMS value of
the phase current, the additional heating in stator winding is automatically taken
into account. For more accurate thermal modeling, the
Negative Seq factor setting
is used for taking account of the rotor heating effect.

Setting the thermal restart level
The restart disable level can be calculated as follows:

margin
(Equation 44)
For example, the motor start-up time is 11 seconds, start-up current 6 x rated and
Time constant start is set for 800 seconds. Using the trip curve with no prior load,
the operation time at 6 x rated current is 25 seconds, one motor start-up uses 11/25
≈ 45 percent of the thermal capacity of the motor. Therefore, the restart disable
level must be set to below 100 percent - 45 percent = 55 percent, for example to 50
percent (100 percent - (45 p margin), where margin is 5 percent).
Setting the thermal alarm level
Tripping due to high overload is avoided by reducing the load of the motor on a
prior alarm.
