— Formula circuit breakers for power distribution Thermal-magnetic trip unit
The thermal-magnetic trip units TMF, with fixed thermal and magnetic threshold, are generally used in power distribution plants. They allow protection against overloads due to the thermal device and protection against short circuit due to the magnetic device:
• Thermal protection (L): fixed threshold I1= 1x1In, with long inverse time trip curve • Magnetic protection (I): fixed threshold I3= 10xIn, with instantaneous trip curve
