Thermal magnetic overcurrent protection:

Three levels of short circuit protection, categorized by B, C and D curves
B-curve magnetic trip point: 3 to 5 times the rated current, typically used for esistive loads such as conductors or heaters.
C-curve magnetic trip point: 5 to 10 times the rated current, typically used for small transformers, pilot devices, etc.
D-curve magnetic trip point: 10 to 20 times the rated current, typically used for transformers or very high inductive loads.
