Rating plug display.

For some special applications, a noninterchangeable
rating plug with a catalog number of TR2SX or TR4SX is

installed in the Trip Unit. The Test Kit should display the
following values for these rating plugs:

TR2SX: 150 A
TR4SX: 4000 A

These values are not the actual breaker current rating,
which can be found on the breaker nameplate.

For example, if the current sensor rating is 1600 A and a
TR2SX rating plug is installed, the Test Kit will read 150
A. However, the actual rating is 1600 A and not 150 A.
