test.  The  value of  the  simulated  test  current  is  1 .0  per unit of 
the  rating  plug value. 

5.4  Mode  of  Conducting  Tests 

5.4.1  Control  Power 

Insta l l  the  Auxiliary Power Module (Cat.  No. PRTAAPM) to 
insure control power is available for testing. 

5.4.2  By  Not  Tripping  the  Breaker 

1 .  Should the circuit breaker be in  the cell "Con nected" position 

and carrying load current, make sure that the circuit breaker 
is carrying no more than 40% of the plug  ampere rating On ). 

2. Place the test selector switch i n  one of the six "No Trip" test 

settings,  i .e.,  1 ,  2, 3, 

8, 

1 0,  or  GF. 

3.  Depress the "Test"  pushbutton  and  release  it - the test  is 

i nitiated when the  pushbutton  is released. 

4.  Should  any of the various  protection  setti ngs  be  less  than 

the selected  "No Trip"  test value,  then  the  LED  related  to 

that function  wi l l  turn  on  signifying  successful  completion 

of the test action.  Note :  For  long  delay  tests  there wil l  be 

some  period  of  time  between  start  of  test  and  LED  turn 
"ON". 

5.  Reset  the trip  unit  by  depressing  and  releasing  the  "Tri p 

Reset"  pushbutton .  All LEOs turned "ON" by the  "No Tri p" 

test action should turn "OFF".

Note: 

The "Trip Reset" pushbutton may be depressed 

at  any  time.  However, should a  test i n i tiated  via  the 
integral test panel be in progress, it would be aborted. 

A  test  i n i tiated  via  the  i n tegral  test  panel  may  be 

aborted  at any time by depressing  the "Tri p  Reset" 
pushbutton. 

5.4.3  By Tripping  the  Breaker 

1 .  Make sure  that the  circuit breaker is carrying no more than 

40% of the plug  a mpere rati ng  O n). 

2.  Place the test selector switch  i n  one of the two  "Trip" test 

setti ngs,  i .e., 6T or  G FT. 

3.  Depress  the "Test"  pushbutton  and  release  it - the test  is 

initiated  when the push button  is released. 

4.  Should any of the various protection setti ngs  be  less than 

the  selected  "Tri p"  test value,  the  ci rcuit  breaker  wi l l   trip 
and the LED related to that function will turn "ON" fol lowi ng

5.  Reset the  trip  unit  by  depressing  and  releasing  the "Trip 

Reset"  pushbutton.  All  LEOs  turned  "ON"  resulting  from 
the "Trip" test action  should turn  "OFF".
