Limits of fault current measurement
In the event of increasing primary currents, transformer production tolerances, imbalances in
the cable routing and current loads in individual cables increasingly cause what appear to be
fault currents that are detected by the evaluation units.
An increased false tripping may occur if excessively low monitoring limit values have been
set at high primary currents. Such tolerances also mean that the measuring accuracy no
longer corresponds to the range of between -7.5 %/+7.5 %.
To avoid these types of measuring errors and false tripping, we recommend to set the limit
values to the minimum values listed in the following graphic, depending on the applicable
primary current.
