Typical Contactor Drop-out Time Settings
The contactor drop-out time settings shown in the following table are
typical minimum values used when the power fuses are provided as part of
a complete MV controller from Rockwell Automation. The
recommendations are based on Ferraz-Shawmut power fuses. Other fuse
types may require alternate drop-out time settings.
The IntelliVAC module DIP switches are set up to provide the minimum
drop-out times shown (refer to Chapter 4).

Fuse not suitable for use with contactor.
Note: The drop-out time is chosen to be equal to or greater than
the intersection of the rated contactor interrupting current and
the fuse melt time curve (except where noted * ).
