To test the tripping time or the tripping current of a Eathr Leakage 

Circuit Breaker, make sure to connect the earth wire.
This instrument represents the quickest and easiest way for 

servicing, repairing and electrical maintenance of 3 phase system 

with earth leakage. 
With this equipment, you can, before connecting Load to Supply:

On the supply side; Quickly verify the presence of the three Phases 

on a 3 Phases Power System. Confirm the Phase Rotation on a 

Powered 3 Phase System. Test the Tripping (disconnection) current 

and time of the protections.

5. Brief Product Description

This 3 Phases Rotation and Earth Leakage Tester has 4 test leads

which connects to the 4 mm female sockets on the tester.
These Test leads are color coded.

R(L1) = 

Red which connects to R on the tester.

S(L2) = 

White which connects to S on the tester.

T(L3) = 

Blue which connects to T on the tester.

T(L3) = 

Blue which connects to T on the tester.

Earth = 

Green which connects to Earth on the tester.

On the other side of the test leads are the probes, also color coded.

The Phase Presence Indicator

 has three neon lamps which are the 

Phase Presence indicators;
Neon Lamp for Individual Phase Presence Indication  =     R(L1)

Neon Lamp for Individual Phase Presence Indication  =     S(L2)

Neon Lamp for Individual Phase Presence Indication  =     T(L3)
Please note that any of these Neon lamp will only start to light up if 

more than 100Vac is present between any 2 phases.
