Over Current Relay
An over current relay (Figure 11) is connected to the main circuit breaker. In the event of an overload, both the circuit breaker and the over current relay may trip. If the circuit breaker can not be reset, the reset button on the over current relay must be pressed. The over current relay is located in the control box.
