IEC curves
For European applications, the relay offers three standard curves defined in IEC 255-4 and British standard BS142. These
are defined as IEC Curve A, IEC Curve B, and IEC Curve C. The IEC curves are derived by the operate and reset time
equations.
Eq. 5-6
where
T = operate time (in seconds)
TDM = Multiplier setting
I = input current
I
pickup
= Pickup Current setting
K, E = constants defined in the table
t
r
= characteristic constant defined in the table
T
RESET
= reset time in seconds (assuming energy capacity is 100% and
RESET
is “Timed”)
