Frequency sensitivity of
the short-circuit
releases
The characteristics of the short-circuit releases apply to frequencies of 50/
60 Hz. For lower frequencies, such as 16
2
/
3
Hz, for higher frequencies up to
400 Hz, and for direct current, appropriate correction factors have to be
taken into account.
The following characteristic curve illustrates the frequency sensitivity of the
short-circuit releases:
