I've just been thinking..... scary isn't it..
Is there a formula anywhere to get accurate disconnection times from the bulrush charts

I have done this before with 3 input fields (in yellow), does this help? you still have to look up the disconnection time from the tables.The thing is I don't want to draw on them...
Having a formula for this would allow me to write a spread sheet formula to work out the Adiabatic with only 2 or 3 input fields
... just thinking
I must be missing a trick here, for years I have just calculated. Could someone enlighten me on how you use the described set square and the two 90 degree markers. I think I am learning a new trick here, and here am I thinking I know everything. :slap :coatThem graphs are a total PITA to read and no mistake, I find a clear plastic set square useful, some amount of estimation still needs to be used tho
The curves show the (slowest) operating time of an ocpd plotted against the current that causes it to operate.I am a little confused as to what you want to be honest, that's my ignorance. The curves describe let through currents and I have always used the PFC as the main calc along with t =0.1 and 1.45, or 3600 seconds.
So if you have a PFC of 2000 this is (2000X2000) x 0.01
I²t x 0.1
Please ignore my ignorance, just trying to get my head around what you mean.
Ze=0.35 fault current=230/0.35=632AYes, but how do you use the set square and the two 90 degree markings to work out (ballpark) figures.
From the OP I am guessing that the question is about fuse links? I always calculate the cable size according to the fuse characteristics and use the above calculation method in doing so. I have never used a set square or any other method and I am intrigued as to how it works.
