Abstract From the Canadian patent

49,605, ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE, A solid state load protection system having an inverse time delay circuit. A current sensing function is utilized so as to produce an output current which is proportional to the current in an electrical circuit. Attached to the current sensing function is a load resistor which converts the current produced by the current sensing function to a voltage which is proportional to the current utilized by the load. Attached to the load resistor is an inverse time delay circuit which serves as an overcurrent and timing function. The overcurrent and timing functions monitors the level of voltage from the load resistor initiating a time-out sequence when the …
