• Provides adjustable current and time delay settings to suit different protection requirements.

• Typically features fault status indication (e.g., LED indicators).

• Features:

• Digital design for higher accuracy and reliability.

• Adjustable earth fault current setting (IΔn).

• Adjustable tripping time delay (tΔ).

• Compact design for easy installation in switchgear or other protection devices.

• Low power consumption.

• High immunity to interference.
