Electronic overload relay EF19 and EF45
Electronic overload relays offer reliable
protection in case of overload and
phase-failure. They are the alternative to
thermal overload relays. Motor starters
are combinations of overload relays and
contactors.

Application / internal function
The self-supplied electronic overload relays are three pole electronic/mechanical devices. The motor current flows through
build-in current transformers and an evaluation circuit will recognize an overload (over current). This will lead to a release
of the relay and a change of the contacts switching position (95-96 / 97-98). The contact 95-96 is used to control the load
contactor. The electronic overload relay is self-supplied, which mean no extra external supply is needed.
The overload relays have a setting scale in Amperes, which allows the direct adjusting of the relay without any additional
calculation. In compliance with international and national standards, the setting current is the rated current of the motor and
not the tripping current (no tripping at 1.05 x I, tripping at 1.2 x I; I = setting current). The relays are constructed in a way
that they protect themselves in the event of an overload. The overload relay has to be protected against short-circuit. The
appropriate short-circuit protective devices are shown in the following tables.
To prevent thermal overloads in heavy duty applications, the correct cable sizes have to be selected.
