When the DT characteristic is selected, it is only affected by the
Operate delay time
and
Reset delay time
settings.
The protection relay provides 16 IDMT characteristics curves, of which seven comply
with the IEEE C37.112 and six with the IEC 60255-3 standard. Two curves follow the
special characteristics of ABB praxis and are referred to as RI and RD. In addition
to this, a user programmable curve can be used if none of the standard curves are
applicable. The user can choose the DT characteristic by selecting the
Operating
curve type
values "ANSI Def. Time" or "IEC Def. Time". The functionality is identical in
both cases.
The following characteristics, which comply with the list in the IEC 61850-7-4
specification, indicate the characteristics supported by different stages.
