Source Errors
Source errors display in the Source Table of the ProTesT Control Panel Version 2 (see the F6150
User Guide.) A Source error is typically due to problems with the load. For example:
• Current is driven into an open circuit or high impedance.
• Power requirements of the relay under test exceed the capacity of the source.
If a source error occurs:
• The name of the affected source displays as ER and blinks in the Source Table.
• The Amplitude and Phase fields for the affected source blink in the Source Table.
• An audible alarm sounds from the speakers of the control PC.
Common source errors are defined in Table 4.5.

Table 4.5 Source Errors
Error Description Action
Transient over 1.5
seconds
Hardware disables the source. Turn off the source.
Peak current Hardware disables the source. Normally, this
error does not occur for a current source. It typ
-
ically means a voltage source is overloaded (as,
for example, when a short circuit occurs at high
amplitude.)
Reduce the current on
the F6150.
Clip Fast A current source cannot drive a load.
Clip Slow A current source cannot drive a load.
