Fill in a testing report (see model report in the User’s Manual)
during the test.
Close the hard wire connection terminals opened during testing
and remove temporary connections. The system is ready for
commissioning.

For example :
- Max E/F 300-600A
- phase setting 1.3 x In
- E/F setting 5% of primary ratio
=> if CT ratio 2000/1 primary setting = 100A
=> Io setting = 0.05 xIn
