Figure 48. Leakage Current Calibration on Earth Leakage Tester
Calibrate Residual Current Device (RCD) in Installation
Testers
The Product has two RCD modes for calibrating trip current and trip time of RCD
testers and multifunction installation testers with RCD testing capability.
To avoid electric shock, do not touch the L and N terminals
while calibrating testers in the RCD function. These terminals
have line voltage on them during this calibration process.
Calibrate RCD Trip Time
Trip time RCD calibrations are performed differently depending on the multiplier
setting. An example for each variation is listed below.
Calibrate Using 0.5 I Multiplier
The 0.5 I multiplier setting is used to calibrate non-trip RCDs. To perform a
calibration for the non-trip RCD function do the following:
1. Push .
2. Connect the DUT to the Product's L, PE, and N terminals as in Figure 49.
3. Push the Mode softkey. Then, using the cursor keys or rotary knob, highlight
Trip Time and select it by pushing the Select softkey or pushing in the rotary
knob.
4. On the DUT, set these parameters:
I multiplier set to 0.5xI
Nominal trip current (I
S or G type RCD not set
AC or DC sensitive testing not set
Phase polarity not set
Maximum touch voltage not set
Not all parameters can be accessed on some DUTs, however,
nominal trip current must always be set or known.
