Since an overload usually occurs in a balanced way, this setting is of minor impor-
tance. If unbalanced overloads are to be expected, however, these options lead to dif-
ferent results.
Averaging should only be used if a rapid thermal equilibrium is possible in the protect-
ed object, e.g. with belted cables. If the three phases are, however, more or less ther-
mally isolated (e.g. single conductor cables or overhead lines), one of the maximum
settings should be chosen at any rate.
