Overcurrent Simulation Test

During the simulation for any of the three types of test, the
Test Kit first ramps up the simulation current, starting
from less than .9 times the pickup current and continuing
until pickup is reached. At that point, the display contains
the message:
Input Current = 1.00C IN PICKUP
<Press any key to test at current shown>
... ..... ..... ..... ..... ..... ..... ..... ..... ..... ..... ....
Overcurrent simulation pickup display.
The current continues to ramp up until either one of the
function keys is pressed or 15.00C (or 15.00S for Ground
Fault) is reached. In either case, the simulated current is
held constant and a message similar to the following is
displayed:

CAUTION: When an overcurrent test with breaker trip is
performed, the pickup indicator and the trip targets are
not illuminated on the Trip Unit display, since the
breaker is not actually experiencing an overcurrent
condition. The only indication is that
on TT-type Trip Unit displays, while
on A-, B-, or C-type Trip Unit displays.
ATTENTION: Quand un test de surcharge avec

déclenchement et pickup ne sont pas allumés sur l'écran

condition de surcharge). La seule indication est le
clignotement du segment
