1) Effect of ambient temperature
The unit is calibrated for an ambient temperature of +23 °C. To de-
termine the rated current for a lower or higher ambient temperature,
use a correction factor from the table on the right side:
1) Example
Rated current at +23 °C 6,0 A
Ambient temperature +40 °C
Correction factor 1,08
Chosen rated current at
+40 °C ambient temperature 6 A x 1,08 = 6,5 A
* Temperature must be measured at the rear of the breaker next to
the terminals after equipment operating temperature has been
reached.
