To use this chart: Read up from the ambient
temperature to the curve, and across to find a
correction factor. Multiply the breaker rating by the
correction factor to determine the compensated
rating. Calculate the overloads in terms of the
compensated rating to use the published trip curve.
Do not use these devices outside their specified
operating temperature ranges.

3-20 amp models – may trip between 101% and 134%, but
must trip at 135% of rating within one hour at +25°C.
0.25-2 amp models – may trip between 101% and 174%, but
must trip at 175% of rating within one hour at +25°C.

Agency Approvals
W28 series is UL 1077 Recognized as Supplementary Protectors, File
E69543, and CSA Accepted as Supplementary Protectors (Appliance
Component Protectors), File LR15734. W28 breakers are VDE
approved for use in office equipment (AC loads only) and provides
8mm isolation. 16 amp and 20 amp models do not have VDE
approvals at present.
Users should thoroughly review the technical data before selecting a product part
number. It is recommended that users also seek out the pertinent approvals files of
the agencies/laboratories and review them to confirm the product meets the
requirements for a given application.
