OVERLOAD
PROTECTION
Figure 4.7 - Motor current setting
The motor electronic overload protection simulates the heating and
cooling of the motor, also known as thermal image. This simulation
uses as input data the True rms current. The curve with the working
time in motor overload is defined in figure 4.8.
