Note The S8AS contains a current-restricting circuit that prevents a cur-
rent above a specific value from flowing. The current is thus restrict-
ed during the time required to cut off the output.
Note
After sampling and converting each branch output's current every 1 ms, the
S8AS processes the values in the CPU and controls the branch output cut-
offs. This method achieves high-speed, high-accuracy tripping. In addition, to
minimize the effects of excessive currents caused by short-circuits, the S8AS
is equipped with built-in current-limiting circuits. Consequently, there is a
