Combined overcurrent and earth-fault SPAJ 321 C
relay 1MRS 750425-MBG
Application The combined overcurrent and earth-fault tions requiring phase overcurrent protection
relay SPAJ 321 C is used for short-circuit and/or residual earth-fault protection. The
protection, time overcurrent protection and relay is especially used in applications based
residual earth-fault protection for radial over- on the use of inverse time relays both for the
head and cable feeders in solidly earthed or overcurrent protection and the earth-fault pro-
low-resistance earthed networks. The relay tection.
may also be used in a variety of other applica-
