Tripping values line circuit-breakers
For the operation luminaires, automatic
circuit breakers with characteristics are
recommended. case multipolar circuit
breakers, the values specified the manu-
facturer must reduced 20%. The specific
range and type, well as, the actual number
of ballasts per luminaire must taken into
account.
Please note: the values given the table
are intended reference values only and
may deviate individual cases. case metal halide lamps, the
switch-on current increased ignition
time shunting. case connection circuit
breakers with characteristics, transformers
should not loaded above rating order to
avoid false tripping
