Schneider EasyPact TVS Thermal Overload Relay LRE08

Schneider EasyPact TVS Thermal Overload Relay LRE08 — Compact 2.5–4 A Motor Protection

The Schneider EasyPact TVS Thermal Overload Relay LRE08 is a compact and reliable three-phase motor protection device from Schneider Electric’s EasyPact TVS range. Designed to safeguard smaller three-phase motors from prolonged overload, phase loss, and unbalanced load conditions, this relay provides dependable motor protection and enhances electrical safety in industrial, commercial, and control panel applications across India. EasyPact TVS thermal overload relays are engineered to conform to IEC thermal motor protection standards, ensuring trustworthy performance.

🔌 What Is the LRE08 Thermal Overload Relay?

The LRE08 is a three-pole differential thermal overload relay with an adjustable current setting range of 2.5 – 4 A, making it ideal for protecting small three-phase motors used in light industrial equipment, pumps, and fans. It continuously monitors current in all three phases and disconnects power when sustained overload or abnormal phase conditions occur, helping to prevent motor overheating and reduce downtime. Built to meet IEC 60947-4-1 Class 10A tripping standards, this relay balances tolerance for normal start-up current surges with accurate overload response.

Compatible with EasyPact TVS contactors, the LRE08 supports direct mounting to simplify wiring and save control panel space — ideal for compact motor starter assemblies.
