n How to select a protection system ?
Depending on the type of failure, overload or short-circuit, use 2 series
of data
Overloads: use the operating zone curves of the different protection
devices. On the same row, the operating zones should not overlap
Short-circuits: use the i
2
t tables. The total i
2
t of the protection
system the furthest downstream must be less than the upstream
protection pre-arc i

n Example of good selection
n Selection between cartridge fuses (according to IEC 60269-2-1)
