Logarithmic interpolation
The permitted number of operations for currents in between
the defined points are logarithmically interpolated using

C = permitted operations
I = interrupted current
a = constant according Equation 3.5-2
n = constant according Equation 3.5-3

Example of the logarithmic interpolation
Alarm 2 current is set to 6 kA. What is the maximum number
of operations according Table 3.5-1.
The current 6 kA lies between points 2 and 3 in the table. That
gives value for the index k. Using
k

C
k

= 1.25 kA
and the Equation 3.5-2 and Equation 3.5-3, the relay calculates
