2. Safety instructions 2.1 General safety instructions Part of the device documentation in addition to this manual is the enclosed "Safety instructions for Bender products". 2.2 Work activities on electrical installations Only qualified personnel are permitted to carry out the work necessary to install, commission and run a device or system.
Safety instructions 2.3 Intended use The current monitoring device CMD420-DM resp. CMD421-DM monitors three-phase or also three different single-phase AC systems for undercurrent or overcurrent, undercurrent and overcurrent with window discriminator function. For current measurement, three external standard current transfor- mers are to be connected according to the wiring diagram.

Function or falls below the release value (response value plus hysteresis), the alarm LEDs go out. With the fault memory activated, the alarm relays do not change their actual state until the reset button R is pressed. 3.2.1 Window discriminator function This operating can be used to monitor the measured current for two response values overcurrent and undercurrent.

3.2.12 Transformation ratio of the current transformers The transformation ratio for the current transformers has to be set as factor n in the menu "Set". CMD420-DM requires current transformers with a transformation ratio of n = x/1A. CMD421-DM requires current transformers with a transformation ratio of n = x/5A.
