The IEC extremely inverse curve becomes

definite time at currents greater than 20 x
setting. The IEC standard, very and long time
inverse curves become definite time at
currents greater than 30 x setting.

For all IEC/UK curves, the reset characteristic

is definite time only.

For all IEEE/US curves, the reset characteristic

can be selected as either inverse curve or
definite time.

The inverse reset characteristics are

dependent upon the selected IEEE/US IDMT

All inverse reset curves conform to the
