Footnotes:
1
Optional 50 ms (three cycles) with 48 Vdc, 125 Vdc or 250 Vdc trip voltage.
2
TRV values are in accord with IEEE C37.06-2009. TRV peak value u
c
is roughly equal to historic E
2
value in ANSI C37.06-2000.
Value t
3
, time to voltage u
c
, is approximately 1/1.138 times the T
2
value in ANSI C37.06-2000.
3
First value is full-wave impulse withstand circuit breaker open or closed. Second value is chopped-wave impulse withstand, applicable only
with circuit breaker closed.
4
First value is for standard 50 ms/3-cycle interrupting time. Second value is for optional 83 ms/5-cycle interrupting time (see note 1).
