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. USA: 1-800-522-6752 Canada: 1-905-470-4425 Mexico: 01-800-733-8926 C.
