Instructions for Digitrip RMS 610 Trip Unit

3.7 No Instantaneous Current Setting

For types LS and LSG Trip Units, please see Sections 1 .1 .3
DlScriminator (High initial Current Release) and 1 .1 .4 OVERRIDE
(Fixed Instantaneous), for available fast-acting high short-circuit pro-
tection .

3.8 Ground Fault Current Setting

The eight (8) Ground Fault "Pick-up" Current Settings are labeled
with the code letters "A" through "K" (except there are no "G" or "I"
settings), as illustrated in Figure 17 . In general, the specific current
settings range from 0 .25 to 1 .0 times (I
cannot exceed 1200 A . The specific Ground Current Settings for
each letter are listed in Table 4 and on the (G) Time-Current Curve
applicable for the circuit breaker (see Section 5) .
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
Auxiliary Power Module (APM) (see Section 1 .5 and Figure 11) .

3.9 Ground Fault Time Delay Setting

As illustrated in Figure 18, there are two different Ground Fault
curve shapes, i .e ., fixed time (flat) and I
selected depends on the type of selective coordination chosen . The
I
t response will provide a longer time delay in the low-end of the
2
ground fault current range than will the flat response .
Five flat ( .1, .2, .3, .4, .5 sec .) and three I
response time delay settings are available . The I
are identified by the suffix asterisk (*) that appears in the setting
viewing window . The I

In addition to the standard Ground Fault protection, the Digitrip RMS
N
otee:
610 Trip Unit also has a GROUND TIME MEMORY (GTM) function, which
serves to protect loads in the event of a sputtering arc to ground . Without
the GTM function, the Trip Unit would normally reset each time the arc sput-
tered, and begin to time-out all over again, so that a sputtering fault may not
have been detected . But with the GTM function, the Trip Unit "remembers"
the sputtering ground current for up to five (5) times the Ground Fault Time
Setting . After that time, it does reset automatically . The GTM function does
reset rather quickly; on the 0 .1 second setting, for example, it will reset in
0 .5 second .
