Step 2. Apply 2.0 A at 50 or 60 Hz, as appropriate for the style, to Input 1. The REST. TRIP LED should

be illuminated.

Step 3. Increase the second-harmonic current until the REST. TRIP LED extinguishes, indicating that

the inhibit point has been reached. Note the magnitude of the second-harmonic component at

the inhibit point.

NOTE

With two current sources in parallel, apply the fundamental frequency and then

add the required harmonic..

Step 4. To calculate the second-harmonic inhibit percentage, divide the second-harmonic current

measured in Step 3 by the current applied in Step 2. (Divide the harmonic current by the

fundamental current.) Factory setting is 12.0 ±3% for single-phase units and 18.0 ±3% for

three-phase units.

Step 5. Three-Phase Units Only: Repeat Steps 1 through 4 for phase B (terminals 12 & 13) and

phase C (terminals 14 & 13).

Fifth-Harmonic Restraint Verification

Step 1. Set the INPUT 1 (tap) switches to the 2.0 A position. Connect the relay as appropriate (refer to

Figures 5-1 through 5-4; except set both current sources to 0° for fifth-harmonic restraint

verification) using terminals 11 & 13 (Input 1 for both single-phase and three-phase).

Step 2. Apply 2.0 A at 50 or 60 Hz, as appropriate for the style, to Input 1. The REST. TRIP LED should

be illuminated.

Step 3. Increase the fifth-harmonic current until the REST. TRIP LED extinguishes indicating that the

inhibit point has been reached. Note the magnitude of the fifth-harmonic component at the

inhibit point.

Step 4. To calculate the fifth-harmonic inhibit percentage, divide the current measured in Step 3 by the

current applied in Step 2. (Divide the harmonic current by the fundamental current.) Factory

setting is 35.0 ±3% for both single-phase and three-phase units.

Step 5. Three-Phase Units Only: Repeat Steps 1 through 4 for phase B (terminals 12 & 13) and

phase C (terminals 14 & 13).
