Greetings members.

 

Can someone point me to the “basic” standard that would be the foundation
for household circuit breaker trip curves? 120V (North America) and 230V
(Internationally) specifically. I saw on one curve the NEMA AB-2 which does
not exist on the NEMA site.

 

Typical abnormals in UL standards are done at the points listed below which
seems to indicate where the curve would need to safely reside. 

110% - 7 hours

135% - 1 hour

200% - 2 minutes.

 

Can one of you fine people refer me to where the requirement(s) would come
from? NEMA, IEC, NEC LMNOP?

 

Curt
