• OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS AND SETTINGS
Description
• The operating function of this unit is classed as a Type A for which tripping is ensured for residual true RMS sinusoidal alternating currents and residual pulsating direct currents, whether
applied suddenly or slowly rising. Additionally, this unit is protected against nuisance tripping.
Applying power (assuming no leakage current present)
• Apply power, the "positive safety output" relay will energise and contacts 6 and 8 will close after delay “td”. The "standard output" relay will remain de-energised (contacts 12 and 14 open).
• After carrying out a self test (all segments illuminate on the LED display for a short period), then indicate the I∆n setting, followed by the measured “leakage current” that may be present in the
installation. The yellow LED’s to the left of the display show whether the current is “mA” or “A”.
Viewing and changing the user settings.
Note: The unit is factory set to 30mA trip and instantaneous delay. The remote fault level output is set to 50%. Adjustment of these settings can be made if required to suit the requirements of the
installation. A seal is supplied with the unit allowing the user to secure the clear window and hence prevent any unnecessary adjustment of the settings.
• The settings can be viewed and checked by pressing the “Display” push button as shown. Carrying out adjustments to these settings requires the tamperproof cover to be lifted in order to gain
access to the two push buttons underneath.
• If during the adjustment of any settings, a push button is released, the display will revert back to indicating the measured “leakage current” after a short duration.

Fault simulation (Test mode)
• The unit can be placed into a fault condition by pressing the "Test/Reset" button on the front of the unit (or by pressing the remote “Test” button - if fitted). If the unit is already in a “no fault”
condition, i.e., not tripped, the first press will trip the unit. The output relays operate accordingly. The display shows the characters as in Fig.2

power supply. DISPLAY TEST/

Leakage currents Fig. 2


• If during normal service, the leakage current increases above the setting for the fault level output, the remote lamp will illuminate (if fitted) and the display will flash to give the user early warning
of a possible fault condition. If the fault persists and the level of leakage current exceeds the trip level setting, the unit will trip. The "positive safety output" relay will de-energise and contacts 6
and 8 will open. The "standard output" relay will energise and contacts 12 and 14 will close. The red “fault” LED will illuminate and the display will stop flashing.
• Pressing the “Test/Reset” button returns the unit back to normal operation, assuming the fault has cleared. Note that the level of current that caused the unit to trip is now stored and can be
re-called by pressing the “Display” button (see Fig.1). Note that the recorded trip current is only stored whilst power is applied and cleared if the power supply is interrupted.

• INSTALLATION DO’s and DONT’s


• Correct installation of the Earth Leakage Relay and toroid should ensure trouble free operation, in particular, if this document is followed.

1. Always ensure the Earth conductor DOES NOT pass through the E
toroid. If it is unavoidable, the Earth must be routed back through N N

12 12
2. As a rule, select a toroid that has an inside diameter which is twice that
or greater than the outsider diameter of the cable(s) to be passed
through.

3. Ensure the cable is central in the toroid.

4. Place the toroid on a straight section of cable, not near a bend

5. Keep the able and toroid away from intense magnetic fields from
nearby equipment.

6. DO NOT pass individual conductors through separate toroids, as shown


in Fig. 3. Fig. 1 Fig.2 Fig.3
