Explanation:
Rated short-time withstand current or rated conditional short-circuit current ≤ 10 kA r.m.s
 No test required
Rated short-time withstand current or rated conditional short-circuit current > 10 kA r.m.s

OK No test required: Ic ≤ 17kA

If prospective short-circuit-current is limited to x kA,


x kA
no test is required: Ic ≤ 17kA

> 17 kA Test required: Ic > 17kA
