T Example: Parameters
Operation of the I
2
T current limit algorithm is best understood through an example. For this
example, a motor with the following characteristics is used:
Peak Current Limit – 12 A
I

T Time Limit – 1 S
Continuous Current Limit – 6 A
From this information, the I

T setpoint is:
I

T setpoint = (12 A
