    AQ-F201 overcurrent and earth fault device is a member of the AQ 200 product line. However, while the hardware and the software are modular in the AQ 200 product line, AQ-F201 is provided as a fixed overcurrent and earth fault device with a factory set of I/O and functionality. This manual describes the specific application of the AQ-F201 overcurrent and earth fault device.

This means that the construction and content of the device’s hardware are fixed. The device includes the CPU module (which consists of the CPU, a number of inputs and outputs, and the power supply) as well as one current measurement module.
