Note: For Testing Purposes Only: When using an
external single phase current source to test low level
ground fault current settings, it is advisable to use
the Auxil iary Power Module (APM) (See Fig. 7). Espe­
cially when the single phase current is low, without
the APM it may appear as if the trip unit does not
respond until the current is well above the set value,
leading the tester to bel ieve there is an error in the
trip un it when there is none. The reason this occurs
is that the single phase test cu rrent is not a good
simulation of the normal three phase circuit. If three
phase current had been flowing, the trip u n it would
actually have performed correctly. Use the APM for
correct trip unit performance whenever single phase
tests are made.

4.9 Ground Fault Time Delay Setting
As illustrated in Fig.
Fault curve shapes, i.e. , fixed time (flat) or 1 2 t response.
The shape selected depends on the type of selective
coordination chosen. The 1 2 t response will provide a
longer time delay in the low-end of the ground fault cur­
rent range than will the flat response.
Five flat (.1, .2, .3,
1
sec.) response time delay settings are available. The 1 2 t
response settings are identified by the suffix asterisk (*)
that appears in the setting viewing window. The 1 2 t
response is applicable to currents less than 0.625 times
the ampere rating of the installed rating plug
rents greater than 0.625 x
the flat response.
