t curves
The I
2
t curves are derived as follows:
Eq. 5-43
where
T = Operate time (in seconds)
TDM = Multiplier setting
I = Input current
I
pickup
= Pickup Current setting
T
RESET
= reset time in seconds (assuming energy capacity is 100% and RESET is “Timed”)
Table 5-43: I

t curve trip times
FlexCurves
FlexCurves are described in the FlexCurves section later in this chapter. The curve shapes for the FlexCurves are derived
from the formulae:
Eq. 5-44
Eq. 5-45
where
T = operate time (in seconds)
TDM = Multiplier setting
I = Input Current
I
pickup
= Pickup Current setting
T
RESET
= Reset Time in seconds (assuming energy capacity is 100% and RESET: Timed)
