below
Check the low set IN> current where setting FunctionMode = Current and setting
BuTripMode = 1 out of 4
1. Apply the fault condition, including START of CCRBRF, with a current just
below set IN>Pickup_N.
2. Repeat the fault condition and increase the current in steps until trip appears.
3. Compare the result with the set IN>.
4. Disconnect AC and START input signals.

Checking the re-trip and back-up times

The check of the set times can be made in connection with the check of operate
values above.
Choose the applicable function and trip mode, such as FunctionMode = Current
and RetripMode = I> check.
1. Apply the fault condition, including start of CCRBRF, well above the set
current value. Measure time from START of CCRBRF.
2. Check the re-trip t1 and back-up trip times t2 and t3.
In applicable cases, the back-up trip for multi-phase start t2MPh and back-up
trip 2, t2 and t3 can also be checked. To check t2MPh, a two-phase or three-
phase start shall be applied.
3. Disconnect AC and START input signals.

Verifying the re-trip mode

Choose the mode below, which corresponds to the actual case.
In the cases below it is assumed that FunctionMode = Current is selected.
Checking the case without re-trip,
1. Set RetripMode = Retrip Off.
2. Apply the fault condition, including start of CCRBRF, well above the set
current value.
3. Verify that no re-trip, but back-up trip is achieved after set time.
4. Disconnect AC and START input signals.
