Time-Overcurrent Curves
The following information describes the curve timing for the curve and time
dial settings made for the time-overcurrent elements (see Table 4.16 and
Table 4.17). The U.S. and IEC time-overcurrent relay curves are shown in
Figure 4.25 through Figure 4.34. Curves U1, U2, and U3 (Figure 4.25 through
Figure 4.27) conform to IEEE C37.112-1996 IEEE Standard Inverse-Time
Characteristic Equations for Overcurrent Relays.
