Siemens — General data

Overload Relays General data Overview 1) Motor currents up to 820 A can be recorded and evaluated by a current measuring module, e. g. 3RB29 06-2BG1 (0.3 ... 3 A), in combination with a 3UF18 68-3GA00 (820 A/1 A) series transformer. 2) The SIRIUS 3RN thermistor motor protection devices can be used to pro- vide additional temperature-dependent protection.
