A self-powered multiple phase circuit protection device including a plurality of current transformers connected in parallel with each other and associated with one phase of a multiple phase load for providing signals representative of the current flowing in an associated phase. A first switch can be actuated to interrupt power to the multiple phase load, and a fault determining circuit is connected to the circuit transformers and to the first switch for actuating the switch during at least one predetermined condition of the current signals. A second switch can be automatically actuated to reconnect power to the multiple phase load. The fault determining circuit has a timer for delaying the actuation of the first switch, and a warning signal can be issued prior to actuation of the first switch so that the user can take corrective action.
