DESCRIPTION

It is a small and compact unit based on latest electronic devices. It senses the current flowing through a totally electrically isolated circuit and energises the electromagnetic relay when the current crosses the set value. The current setting is done with a continuously adjustable knob over a linearly calibrated dial. It incorporates a built-in ON delay timer to avoid spurious trappings in case of transients with time adjustable from 1 to 10 seconds the help of a second knob over a calibrated dial. Two change over contacts of the delay are provided for the customer's usage. Three LED's (light emitting diodes) are provided on top of the unit to indicate voltage supply ON, relay ON status and Time ON.

External Connection



This device can be used for both 1Ø and 3Ø earth faults. For 3Ø earth fault, single CT can be used by passing all the three phase and neutral wires through the CT and in case of bus bars, matching CT's are put on each bus bar and then paralleled with each other.
