Digitrip 1150/1150i - G-Ground (Earth) Curves
Apply to Series NRX Type IZMX16 (NF) and IZMX40 (RF) Circuit Breakers.
This curve is for 50 Hz or 60 Hz applications.
Notes:
1. The end of the curve is determined by the interrupting rating of the circuit
breaker.
2. The curve is shown as a multiple of the Rating Plug (I
n
).
3. The Ground Fault settings have conventional 100 % ± 10 % as their pick up
points.
4. Except as noted, tolerances on current levels are ± 10 % of values shown in
chart.
5. The Ground Fault Pickup is limited to 1200 A setting for the Digitrip 1150 unit.
The Digitrip 1150i unit only has a minimum Earth Pickup setting starting
at 0.1 x I
n
.
6. Ground Slope: FLAT
Tolerance is +0 / -80 ms except
0.10 s setting band is 0.05 to 0.13
0.15 s setting band is 0.09 to 0.17
7. Ground Slope: I

t slope flattens out at 0.625 x I
n
for top of band with FLAT time minimum value
n prevailing for bottom of band.
The tolerance is +0 / -30 % for all settings except
0.10 s is +30 % -25%
0.15 s is +20 % -25%
0.20 s is +10 % -25%
Notes The total Instantaneous clearing times shown are conservative and consider the maximum response times of the trip unit, the circuit breaker open-
ing, and the interruption of the current under factors that contribute to worst case conditions, like: maximum rated voltages, single phase interrup-
tion, and minimum power factor. Faster clearing times are possible depending on the specific system conditions, the type of circuit breaker applied,
and if any arc reduction settings are employed.
