I2t CURVES:
2
The curves for the I t are derived from the formulae:
T
where: T = Operate Time (sec.); TDM = Multiplier Setting; I = Input Current; I
T = Reset Time in sec. (assuming energy capacity is 100% and RESET: Timed)

FLEXCURVES:
The custom FlexCurves are described in detail in the FlexCurves section of this chapter. The curve shapes for the Flex-
Curves are derived from the formulae:

where: T = Operate Time (sec.), TDM = Multiplier setting

T = Reset Time in seconds (assuming energy capacity is 100% and RESET: Timed)

DEFINITE TIME CURVE:
The Definite Time curve shape operates as soon as the pickup level is exceeded for a specified period of time. The base
definite time curve delay is in seconds. The curve multiplier of 0.00 to 600.00 makes this delay adjustable from instanta-
neous to 600.00 seconds in steps of 10 ms.

RECLOSER CURVES:
The L60 uses the FlexCurve feature to facilitate programming of 41 recloser curves. Please refer to the FlexCurve section
in this chapter for additional details.
