Note:
Time/Current characteristic curves for Series C K-frame circuit breakers--voltages shown in curve headings
are maximum at which the breaker may be applied. Interrupting capacity of individual breaker is tabulated
on each curve.
Note:
The following curves are UL489 Listed for use in North America.
The following circuit breakers are derived from Eaton, Westinghouse, or Cutler-Hammer history.
Time Current Curves are engineering reference documents for application and coordination purposes only.
For field testing molded case circuit breakers, refer to NEMA AB 4 guidelines.

series.
3 There is a memory effect that can act to shorten the long delay. The memory effect
50 comes into play if a current above the long delay pickup value exists for a time and
then is cleared by the tripping of a downstream device or the circuit breaker itself.
A subsequent overload will cause the circuit breaker to trip in shorter time than
normal. The amount of time reduction is inverse to the amount of time that has
30 elapsed since the previous overload. Approximately five minutes is required
between overloads to completely reset the memory.
20 4 The end of the curve is determined by the interrupting rating of the circuit breaker.
See above tabulation.
