(step 0.01); duration of restraint 2 to 250 cycles, or ∞; relay can
detect an evolving internal fault and release this restraint.
Time delay before trip 0.00 to 60.00 s (step 0.01 s), or ∞
Time delay before reset 0.00 to 60.00 s (step 0.01 s)
Events that can control signal contacts or trip contacts Change in operational status; pickup, dropout, trip, and reset
events, start of time delay before trip; start and end of restraint.
All events are logged, as are the differential and restraint current
levels at the time of a trip.

Effect of Environmental Influences on Times and Tolerances
Supply power voltage ≤ 1% if between 80% and 115% of nominal voltage
Ambient temperature ≤ 0.5% / 10 K if between 0°C and 40°C (32°F and 104°F)
System frequency ≤ 1% if between 80% and 120% of nominal frequency
