3. General information

3.1. Introduction

The SACE PR010/T test unit is designed to Test, Program and Read the parameters
of the protection units mounted on ABB SACE circuit breakers (both moulded-
case and air circuit breakers). For further information about specific functions,
refer to the corresponding protection unit. All functions are executed "onboard"
by connecting the SACE PR010/T test unit to the connector present on the front
of the protection units. The unit can perform both automatic and manual tests, as
well as trip tests.
The test unit's software may be updated simply by connecting it to a PC (using the
diskette supplied by ABB SACE or the software downloaded from our ABB Internet
site). The unit can also save important test results, which may then be downloaded
to a PC following a request for a test report.
The SACE PR010/T test unit is a portable instrument operated by rechargeable
batteries and/or an external power supply.
