3000 Notes:

1. This curve is shown as a multiple of the PICKUP setting (Ir). The TimeDial
setting combined with SHORT PU and SHORT TIME setting (shown in heavy
lines) depict the IEEE Moderately Inverse response. The Instantaneous,
shown as a separate response, can be set to OFF.
2000
2. Curve Equation:
Trip = TimeDial *[0.0515/ ( I0.0 2-1) + 0.114], where I is a multiple of Ir.
1000
900 For current > 1.2xIr tolerance is [±15%] or [-15%, +90 ms], whichever is larger.
800 TimeDial curve goes to flat response at 14xIr with a shorter time of TimeDial
700 function or SHORT TIME function prevailing if curves overlap. The ShortTime
600 function and the TimeDial function act independently and the entire TimeDial
500 curves continue to be active even after the curves intersect.

400 3. With Zone Selective Interlocking enabled, max trip times w/o aux power are as
follows:
300
3 Phase fault
60 Hz 75ms
50 Hz 85ms
200
When only one pole is carrying current and a fault occurs, trip times increase to
90ms at 60Hz and 95ms at 50 Hz, however with Aux power these times would
be reduced by 10%

100 4. The actual pick up point (indicated by rapid flashing of Unit Status LED on the
90 product) occurs at 110% of the Ir, current, with a ±5% tolerance. The SHORT

0.80 unit, the circuit breaker opening, and the interruption of the current under
