MINIMUM TRIPPING TIME-CURRENT CHARACTERISTIC CURVES


TRIPSAVER™ DROPOUT RECLOSER

BASIS—The minimum tripping time-current characteristic curves shown TOLERANCES—Curves are plotted to minimum test points; maximum Since TripSaver time-current characteristics are electron-
above are applicable over the entire TripSaver Dropout Recloser operating variations expressed in current values are plus 10%. ically derived, they are not subject to change due to aging, transient
temperature range of -40°C to +40°C. No adjustments need be made to overcurrents, or fault currents.
these curves for ambient temperatures within this temperature range. APPLICATION—The maximum continuous current-carrying capability of
S&C TripSaver Dropout Recloser is 50 or 100 amperes RMS, depending SYSTEM FREQUENCY—50 Hz.
