Step 8:
(Optional.) Repeat steps 1 through 7 with CT Circuit 2 as the source for protection systems
equipped with two sets of CTs. In step 3, replace D1 with F1, D2 with F2, etc.
Pickup Verification (IG Mode)
Step 1:
Use BESTCOMSPlus to send the operational settings in Table 213 to the BE1-11g. Reset all
targets.

Step 2:
Use BESTCOMSPlus to configure the BESTlogicPlus programmable logic shown in Figure 319.
•
Blocking is disabled.
•
OUT1 closes for 51-1 Trip.
•
OUT2 closes for 51-1 Pickup.
•
Fault recording is enabled.
Step 3:
Use BESTCOMSPlus to open the Protection, Current, Inverse Overcurrent (51-1) screen and
send the low range test settings (minimum pickup setting) to the BE1-11g for your sensing input
type in Table 214.
Step 4:
Prepare to monitor the 51-1 function operation. Operation can be verified by monitoring OUT2
(see Figure 319).
Step 5:
Connect a current source to terminals D7 and D8 (IG).
Step 6:
Slowly increase the ground current until OUT2 closes and record the pickup. Verify that there is
a 51-1-IND GND target on the front-panel display. Slowly decrease the applied current until
OUT2 opens and record the dropout.
Step 7:
Repeat step 6 for the middle and high range pickup settings for your sensing input type. Record
the results.
Step 8:
(Optional.) Repeat steps 1 through 7 for settings group 1, 2, and 3.
Step 9:
(Optional.) Repeat steps 1 through 8 for 51-2, 51-3, 51-4, 51-5, 51-6, and 51-7.
