THERMAL OVERLOAD PROTECTION
THERMAL
PROTECTION 1(2)
The thermal overload protection element corresponds to the IEC 255-8 standard and is used to detect thermal overload
conditions in protected power system elements. Choosing an appropriate time constant element can be used to protect dif-
ferent elements of the power system. The cold curve characteristic is applied when the estimated
I
p
current is less than
10% of the base current. If
I
p
current is greater or equal than 10% than the base current, then the hot curve characteristic is
applied.
I
p
current is estimated with a fixed time constant for both cooling and heating that reaches to the final value in two
seconds on a step change (either step up or step down) signal.
The IEC255-8 cold curve is defined as follows:
(EQ 5.32)
The IEC255-8 hot curve is defined as follows:
(EQ 5.33)
In the above equations,
•
t
op
= time to operate
•
τ
op
= thermal protection trip time constant
•
I
= measured overload RMS current
•
I
p
= measured load RMS current before overload occurs
•
k
= IEC 255-8 k-factor applied to
I
B
, defining maximum permissible current above nominal current
