Figure 17. First operate time 
measurement for 0,8 A. 

Select the quantity that you want to change (I1 in this case), rotate the knob to change its value and press the 
knob to inject that current level after the pre-fault (Figure 18): 

 

Figure 18. Select the quantity you want 
to change by tapping on it, change it 
with the knob. Press the knob to inject 
it. 

To stop the sequence of tests, tap 

 (Figure 19); the list of the tests will be shown. 

Notice the test values below 4A (threshold for I>>) for testing the non-trip of the I>> threshold (par. 4.1.3)
In this case, tests slightly above 4A have been done, but the test results were well in line with the expected 
values, so there was no need to run tests with currents above 1,3 x 4 A = 5,2 A. Also it can be noticed that the 
I>> threshold was measured at roughly 3,9 A of injection. This represents a 10% error on current measurement 
and is reasonable (see par. 5.2.5) considering the analog circuitry between the SVERKER 900 and the analog 
inputs of the protection relay (S1-S2 terminals). See details in par. 5.2.5. 

 

Figure 19. The sequence of tests is 
finished and the list of the tests is 
shown by SVERKER 900 

To graphically view the test results, tap on
