Question
A transformer circuit breaker is equipped with 500/5 A C.T.s connected to a induction type
over current relay. The relays have 125% plug setting and 0.4 time setting. If a 3- o fault
current of 7500 A flows from C.T. and relays follow characterstics given by below table at
(TMS = 1), then operating time of the relay will be
