ABSTRACT:
Air core current transformers respectively linked with the phase conductors of a power distribution circuit develop secondary voltage signals proportional to the rates of change of the phase currents. A full-wave rectifying network provides a rectified output voltage signal corresponding to the highest magnitude secondary voltage signal. A comparator issues a circuit breaker trip initiating signal when the output voltage signal achieves a pre-selected threshold voltage.
