2
If a ground fault causing a current above the G/F Trip Level but below the S/C Trip Level is already present
when power is applied, the system trips just as soon as possible, regardless of the G/F Trip Delay setting
(rationale: the fault may have been present much longer than the delay set time and should be cleared without
delay).
3
The accuracy of the trip point refers to the value of the real world ground fault current (assuming a purely
sinusoidal wave shape) that just causes a trip when slowly increased from zero.
4
The ground fault detection mechanism has a ‘thermal’ behaviour for greatly reduced noise sensitivity: the
quoted delays are valid for sinusoidal currents exceeding the setpoint by >10 times; for reduced current
excursions the delay increases as follows:
current = 6 x setpoint:
add 3 ms
current = 4 x setpoint:
add 8 ms
current = 2 x setpoint:
add 20 ms
current = 1.2 x setpoint: add 60 ms
For IEC 60755 ‘pulsating DC’ currents, the delay increases by a further 50 ms maximum.
