Displayed results:
Uc........Contact voltage.
Rl.........Fault loop resistance.
5.5.2 Trip-out time (RCDt)
Trip-out time measurement verifies the sensitivity of the RCD at different residual
currents.
Trip-out time measurement procedure
Select the
RCD
function using the function selector switch.
Set sub-function
RCDt.
Set test
parameters
(if necessary).
Connect
test cable to the instrument.
Connect
test leads to the item to be tested (see
figure 5.18
).
Press the
TEST
key to perform the measurement.
