• Maximum Continuous Rated (MCR) Motors: Program the FLA setting
to the full-load current rating on the printed nameplate.
• Star-Delta (Y-Δ) Applications: Follow the MCR instructions, except
divide the full-load current rating on the printed nameplate by 1.73.
Trip Class
Trip Class is the second of two parameters that affect the E300 Electronic
Overload Relay’s thermal capacity utilization algorithm. Trip class is defined as
the maximum time (in seconds) for an overload trip to occur when the motor’s
operating current is six times its rated current. The E300 Electronic Overload
Relay offers an adjustable trip class range of 5…30. Enter the application trip class
into Trip Class (Parameter 172).
