Fault current level IS is expressed as percentage of CT rating ( In = 1 A ). This relay offers
three ranges of IS i.e. 10 to 40 %, 20 to 80 % & 50 to 200 % which can be set by using DIP
switches. IS can be calculated as follows:
IS = (0.1R + R ∑ a) * In
Where, IS = Set current level (fault current level) in A
In = CT rating (1A)
a = Weight of switch in ON position
R = Constant depending on the setting range as given below.
