Start Inhibit
The start inhibit function prevents the starting of a motor when the motor is too
hot and does not have a sufficient amount of thermal capacity available to allow a
start without being tripped offline.
Breaker Failure Protection
The breaker failure protection element monitors for timely operation of the
connected breaker. If a trip command is not successful in operating the breaker
and clearing the fault, the breaker failure element can be used to send trip signals to
upstream breakers to clear the fault.
Undercurrent Protection
The undercurrent protection element provides the ability to trip the motor due
to external conditions that can cause the load being pulled by the motor to drop
below a preset level. This element is useful when the loss of the load results in a loss
of cooling which will cause the asset to overheat.
