L Protection Function
If the current of one or more phases exceeds the I1 threshold, the protection is activated and,
after a time determined by the value read and the parameters set, it sends the TRIP command.
To verify and simulate the trip times based on all the parameters, see:

NOTE: the Ekip M Touch Trip unit has default constraints and parameters that are
different from the other models. The details are shown after the table.
Description
Determines curve dynamic and calculation of trip time:


t=k/I in accordance with IEC 60947-2

IEC 60255-151 SI

IEC 60255-151 VI

IEC 60255-151 EI

4
t=k/I in accordance with 60255-151
Defines the value that activates protection and contributes to
calculating trip time.
The value is expressed both as an absolute value (Ampere) and
as a relative value (In), settable in a range:
0.4 In .. 1In with 0.001 In step.
Contributes to calculating trip time.
The value is expressed in seconds, which are settable in a range:
3 s .. 60 s, with 1 s step.
Activates/deactivates the thermal memory function, see page 70
for details
NOTE: the function is always ON with Ekip M Touch trip
unit and available for all the others Trip unit model with a
curve t=k/I
Enables a warning to be sent that the measured current is near
the threshold triggering the protection.
The value is expressed as a percentage of the threshold I1, which
is settable in a range: 50 % I1 .. 90 % I1, with 1 % step.
The pre-alarm threshold is deactivated in two cases:

current below pre-alarm threshold I1

current above threshold I1
Curve: cannot be changed and is specific for Ekip M Touch (see page 84)
Time t1: cannot be changed and is determined by the trip class (see page 66)
Thermal memory: always enabled, operating according to IEC 60255-8; thermal memory
reset time set by the trip class (see page 66)
Different default parameters: I1 =
The I1 threshold must be less than the I2 threshold (if the S protection is active)
The protection trip time is forced to 1 s if the calculations result in a lower theoretical value
and/or if the current detected is higher than 12 In
