6.4  Functions 
Pre-assembled load feeders  
In the 3RA2 fuseless load feeder, the 3RV2  motor starter protector takes on the dual 
function of overload protection and short-circuit protection. Upstream protective devices such 
as melting fuses or limiters are superfluous, as the motor starter protector is capable of 
withstanding short circuits up to 150 kA at 400 V.  
The 3RT2 contactor is suitable for extremely complex switching tasks requiring maximum 
durability. 
Tripping class CLASS 10 is a fixed setting on all pre-assembled 3RA2 feeders. 
Self-assembled load feeders  
●  Soft start 
●  Star-delta (wye-delta) start 
●  Configuration with solid-state switching devices for high switching frequencies 
 
In the case of a configuration with overload relay, a tripping class up to CLASS 30 can be 
set. In the case of a configuration with SIMOCODE, a tripping class up to CLASS 40 can be 
set.
