Calibrate Residual Current Device (RCD) in PATs (Portable
Appliance Tester)
The Product has a special function to calibrate trip current and trip time of RCD
function in PAT testers. The Product uses a different connection for trip current
and time calibration in PATs compared to calibrating the same function in
Installation testers.
XWWarning
To avoid electric shock, do not touch the L and N terminals
while calibrating testers in the RCD function. These terminals
have line voltage on them during this calibration process.
Cable adapters are needed for RCD in PAT calibration. To perform an RCD trip
current calibration:
1. Push RCD function.
2. Connect the DUT to the Product L, PE, N terminals and ZGND SENSE. See
Figure 50 and Figure 51.
