Note: For Testing Purposes Only: When using an
external single phase current source to test low level
ground fault current settings, it is advisable to use
the Auxiliary Power Module (APM) (See Fig. 7). Espe
cially when the single phase current is low, without
the APM it may appear as if the trip unit does not
respond until the current is well above the set value,
leading the tester to believe there is an error in the
trip unit when there is none. The reason this occurs
is that the single phase test current is not a good
simulation of the normal three phase circuit. If three
phase current had been flowing, the trip unit would
actually have performed correctly. Use the APM for
correct trip unit performance whenever single phase
tests are made.

4.9 Ground Fault Time Delay Setting
As illustrated in Fig. 4.7, there are two different Ground
Fault curve shapes, i.e., fixed time (flat) or 12t response.
The shape selected depends on the type of selective
coordination chosen. The 12t response will provide a
longer time delay in the low-end of the ground fault cur
rent range than will the flat response.
Five flat (.1 , .2, .3, .4, .5 sec.) and three 12t (.1 *, .3*, .5*
sec.) response time delay settings are available. The 12t
response settings are identified by the suffix asterisk (*)
that appears in the setting viewing window. The 12t
response is applicable to currents less than 0.625 times
the ampere rating of the installed rating plug
(In)-
For cur-
rents greater than 0.625 x
In
the 12t response reverts to
the flat response.
