ABSTRACT:
Multipole ground fault circuit interrupter apparatus with a compensation network for maintaining a constant trip level despite less than all power poles being energized. The compensation network has matched resistors respectively connected to each power pole and an additional resistor connected to the common point of the matched resistors in a branch passing through the differential current transformer core from the load side to the supply side and connected to the neutral conductor, producing a desensitizing current when less than all poles are energized.
