Alarm message Description Measures Reference LED indicators
Insulation fault location
disturbed!
Interferences during insulation fault location
Possible causes:
• Low-frequency residual currents
• External magnetic fields
• Identify interference sources and eliminate them
insulation fault x mA
If an insulation fault is located, the message Insulation
fault 5 mA appears on the display. The level of the locat-
ing current gives information regarding the faulty out-
going circuit. The higher the locating current, the lower
the insulation resistance on the detected channel.
• Determine cause of the insulation fault and eliminate it.
Interference CT connec-
tion
A measuring current transformer has not been con-
nected correctly or does not work.
• Check wiring of the measuring current transformers
• Check device function
• Start new search for EDS channels
• Deactivate channel without CT

CT short circuit
Connection fault of CTs
Possible causes:
• Measuring current transformer defective
• Power supply cable short-circuited
• Replace defective measuring current transformer
• Check cables
Residual current
The set response value of the residual current has been
exceeded on one channel.
• Determine cause of the exceeded residual current and eliminate
fault.
