Notes:
1000 1000
900 900 1. There is a thermal-imaging effect that can act
800 800
700 700
to shorten the long-time delay. The thermal-
600 600 imaging effect comes into play if a current
24
500
16
500 above the long-time delay pickup value exists
400 400 for a time and then is cleared by the tripping of
300 300
a downstream device or the circuit breaker
itself. A subsequent overload will cause the
200 200
circuit breaker to trip in a shorter time than
normal. The amount of time delay reduction is
150 150 inverse to the amount of time that has elapsed
since the previous overload. Approximately 20
