430.43 Automatic Restarting.
A motor overload device that can restart a motor automatically after overload tripping shall not be installed unless approved for use with the motor it protects. A motor overload device that can restart a motor automatically after overload tripping shall not be installed if automatic restarting of the motor can result in injury to persons.
The only auto resetting motor overload application I see regularly are the OLs contained in hermetic refrigerant motor-compressors.
