5.10 Using a Test Plan for a Timing Test
A test plan for a specific breaker can be used when performing a timing test (please see section
6.0 for instructions on how to perform timing tests). If a test plan is used, the Pass/Fail indicator
will be displayed based on the settings in the test plan. To use a test plan with a timing test:
1. Close any open test records or test plans.
2. Click on the Test-Plan menu and select Use Test Plan… The following window will be
displayed:
3. If the test plan you would like to use is not listed in the current directory, click on the
“Path” button at the top of the window and browse to the directory containing the file.
Once you have located the test plan file to use, click on the file name to select it and
then click on the “OK” button. The test plan will be loaded and displayed on the screen.
4. Start a circuit breaker timing test per the instructions in section 6.0. When the test is
completed, the test results will be compared with the settings in the test plan. The
Pass/Fail indicator will be displayed based on the results of the comparison.
NOTE
Once a test plan is used, it will stay active for the rest of the session, even if
the actual test plan file is closed. If you no longer want to use the test plan
with a test, close and restart the VCBA software.
