6.13 CT Current Measurement
The MVE supports the summation and zero sequence methods of ground current measurement.
The line current transformers supplied with the soft starter are 1000:1 ratio. The MVE also supports customer-supplied 500:1 CTs
if required. If 500:1 CTs are used, the setting of switch S1 on the power interface board must be changed.

NOTE
The soft starter will check the switch settings when control power is applied. If the switch settings are changed, control
power must be cycled for the new setting to take effect.
