Except as noted, tolerances on pick-up levels are

 

±

10% of values 

shown in chart.

For testing purposes only; when using an external single phase cur-

rent source to check low level ground fault settings, it is advisable to 

use the auxiliary power module (APM) or 510, 610, 810, 910 trip 

unit.

Rating plug is for 50 hz and 60 hz.

All tabulated values are based on the use of a residual sensing 

scheme with the same rated current sensor in all phase and neutral 

conductor.

Digitrip OPTIM has same ground ampere trip range for each plug 

value shown. The many settings are read out directly in amperes on 

the remote device or locally on the OPTIMizer.

THE PROVISION FOR ZONE INTERLOCKING IS 

S TAN DARD ON ALL R-FRAME BREAKERS 

EQUIPPED WITH DIGITRIP RMS 510, 610, 810, 910 

AND DIGITRIP OPTIM 750 AND 1050 AND HAVING 

EITHER A SHORT TIME OR GROUND FAULT FUNC-

TION. APPROPRIATE JUMPERS MUST BE ADDED 

ON THE BREAKER IF ZONE INTERLOCKING IS NOT 

DESIRED OR WHEN THE CIRCUIT BREAKER IS 

REMOVED FROM THE CELL FOR TESTING. (REFER 

TO INSTRUCTION LEAFLET 29C709, SHEETS 24, 25, 

AND 26 FOR CONNECTION DIAGRAMS.)

6.0 TESTING

6.1 Functional Field Testing

A functional level test of a major portion of the Digitrip

'

electronic circuitry and breaker

'

s mechanical trip assem-

bly can be verified using the trip unit

'

s test receptacle. 

The testing can verify the desired trip settings by per-

forming long delay, short delay and ground fault func-

tional tests. Listed below are the Digitrip model and 
associated test kit/auxiliary power module requirements.

6.2 Performance Testing for Ground Fault Trip Units

6.2.1 Code Requirements

The National Electrical Code under Article 230-95-C 

requires that any ground-fault protection system be per-

formance tested when first installed. The test shall be 

conducted in accordance with approved instructions pro-

vided with the equipment. A written record of this test 

shall be made and shall be available to the authority hav-

ing inspection jurisdiction.

6.2.2 Standards Requirements

As a follow-up to the basic performance requirements 

stipulated by the N.E.C. as stated above, UL Standard 

No. 1053 requires that certain minimum instruction must 

accompany each ground fault protection system. These 

following statements plus a copy of the test record form 

illustrated in Fig. 8 are shipped with each Digitrip RMS 

Trip Unit.
