Complementary Motor protection discrimination

technical information

Contents
Using the tables
Two circuit breakers offer total discrimination when the corresponding box in the
discrimination table is shaded or contains the letter T.
When discrimination is partial for the combination, the corresponding box indicates
the maximum value of the fault current for which discrimination is provided.
For fault currents above this value, the two circuit breakers trip simultaneously.

How to use the discrimination tables

b for discrimination between a circuit breaker and a motor control and
protection assembly
If discrimination is partial, the table indicates the maximum fault current value for
which discrimination is ensured. For fault currents above this value, the 2 devices trip
simultaneously.

Discrimination between circuit breakers used for motor

protection.

Requisite conditions
The values indicated in the tables (for 220, 380, 415 and 440 V) are guaranteed
if the following conditions are respected:

D1 Application D2 Ratio between upstream and downstream settings
