Question

How does overload class 10B differ from class 10?

Answer

The difference relates to the AC53b load cycle rating of the starter. Where class 10 allows for 3 times the starters rated current for up to 23 seconds, class 10B allows for 3.5 times the starters rated current for up to 12 seconds. Motor overload protection is class 10.
