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.

1. Curve accuracy applies from –20°C to +55°C ambient. For possible continuous ampere
derating for ambient above 40°C, refer to Eaton. Temperatures above +88°C cause an
200 over-temperature protection trip.

Notes:

50 1 For field testing primary injection methods, follow NEMA AB4 guidelines.

2 Calibration response in short delay pickup range is the same for 1, 2, or 3 poles in series.
30 3 There is a memory effect that can act to shorten the long delay. The memory effect
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
20 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 elapsed since the
previous overload. Approximately five minutes is required between overloads to
completely reset the memory.
10 4 The end of the curve is determined by the interrupting rating of the circuit breaker.

There is a memory effect that can act to shorten the long delay. The memory effect comes into
TIME IN SECONDS

play if a current above the long delay pickup value exists for a time and then is cleared by the
1 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 delay reduction is inverse
6X

to the amount of time that has elapsed since the previous overload. Approximately five minutes is
required between overloads to completely reset the memory.
