I is the measured overload RMS current at index n
n
E is the accumulated energy at index n
n
E is the accumulated energy at index n – 1
n – 1
The thermal overload protection element removes the
emergency, the thermal memory and
All calculations are performed per phase. If the accumulated energy reaches value 1 in any phase, the thermal overload
protection element operates and only resets when energy is less than 0.05 in all three phases.
