ABSTRACT:
A digital overcurrent tripping arrangement having a nonpermanent digital memory. The arrangement further contains a resistor-capacitor stage that simulates the cooling-down process of a body. In accordance with the invention, a microprocessor uses a thermal excitation state digital value stored in the nonpermanent memory to calculate a digital normalized voltage value which is then stored in the nonpermanent digital memory. A digital comparator means within the microprocessor compares the digital normalized voltage value in the nonpermanent memory with a digital output of an analog-to-digital converter, the digital output corresponding to a voltage across the resistor-capacitor stage. If they agree, a charging switch between a current supply and the resistor-capacitor stage is opened. Upon reconnection of the main current supply after disconnection, the microprocessor stores the digital output of the analog-to-digital converter in the nonpermanent memory, the digital output corresponding to a residual voltage across the resistor-capacitor stage.
