b. Use the No. 4 test connection and repeat the pro-
cedure above for checking the T
15.2 Spring Restraint
a. Use test No. 1 connections except reverse the
voltage phase sequence by interchanging the
Brush connections so that Brush No. 1 is connect-
ed to 3F and Brush No. 2 is connected to 1F.
b. Adjust the voltage V
each with Brush No. 2 and Brush No. 1 respec-
tively. Position the moving-contact spring adjuster
so that the contact just floats and then return the
circuit connections to normal with Brush No. 1 to
1F and Brush No. 2 to 3F. De-energize the relay.
Spring should reset the contacts.
15.3 Contact Adjustment
The procedure for contact adjustment for the
phase-to-phase unit is identical to that described for
three-phase unit.
15.4 Impedance Check
Using the connections for Test Nos. 5, 6, and 7, set
the phase-shifter so that the current lags voltage by
θ
. The current required to trip the phase-to-phase
m
unit should be within the limits specified for each of
the voltages. Note that for the phase-to-phase unit

15.5 Indicating Contactor Switch (ICS)
Close the main relay contacts and pass-sufficient dc
current through the trip circuit to close the contacts
of the ICS. The current should not be greater than
the particular ICS tap setting being used for the
0.2–2.0 ampere ICS. The operation indicator target
should drop freely.
The contact gap should be approximately 0.047" for
the 0.2/2.0 ampere unit between the bridging moving
contact and the adjustable stationary contacts. The
bridging moving contact should touch both station-
ary contacts simultaneously.
16. COMPENSATOR CHECK
Accuracy of the mutual impedance Z
pensators is set within very close tolerances at the
factory and should not change under normal condi-
tions. The mutual impedance of the compensators
can be checked with accurate instruments by the
procedure outlined below.
