mately 5 seconds when a shunt is used, and 2 sec-
onds when there is no shunt.
Continuous maximum overload is approximately
1500% of full scale.
The minimum setting which D-3 Relay can accom-
modate is 5% of the full scale.
5.0 SETTINGS
For reverse-current protection a sensitivity of 2 per
cent is obtained when using a standard 50 milli-volt
shunt and setting the relay at 1 millivolt. A 10 per
cent sensitivity is obtained by setting the relay at 5
millivolts. These values of sensitivity can be doubled
by using a 100 millivolt shunt.
For overload protection the relay is set at the index
setting which, with respect to the millivolt drop of the
shunt, will operate at desired per cent of overload.

6.0 INSTALLATION

The relays should be mounted on switchboard pan-
els or their equivalent in a location free from dirt,
moisture, excessive vibration, and heat. Mount the
relay vertically by means of the four mounting holes
on the flange for semi-flush mounting or by means of
the rear mounting stud or studs for projection mount-
ing. Either a mounting stud or the mounting screws
may be utilized for grounding the relay. The electrical
