DANGER!
Operations in the primary area must be performed only with plant sections
voltage-free and earthed! Perilous voltages may occur even on voltage-free
plant sections due to capacitive influence caused by other live sections.
The configuration shown in Figure 8-34 corresponds to an earth current flowing
through the line, in other words an earth fault in the forward direction.
At least one stage of the earth fault protection must be set to be directional (address
31x0 of the earth fault protection). The test current on the line must exceed the pick-
up threshold setting of this/these stages; if required, the pick-up threshold setting must
be reduced. The parameters that are changed, must be noted.

After switching the test source on and off again, the direction indication must be
checked: In the fault messages (refer also to Sub-section 7.1.1.3) at least the following
alarms must be present " EF Pickup " and " EF forward ". If the directional pick-up
alarm is missing, a connection error of the earth current connection I
wrong direction is indicated, the earth current connection I
The connection must be rectified after the test source has been switched off. The
measurement must then be repeated.
If the pick-up alarm is missing altogether, this may be due to the fact that the test cur-
rent is too small.
Attention! If parameters were changed for this test, they must be returned to their
original state after completion of the test!
