6.6.4. mode
The standard defines the tripping times for RCDs at nominal current. The mode is used
to detect the tripping time at tripping current (which could also be lower than the nominal
current).
5.
Press the GO/STOP key on the instrument, the START
key on the remote switch probe or use the AutoStart
feature (see § 5.1.5). The instrument will start the
measurement.

CAUTION
If message “Measuring…” appears on the display, the instrument is
performing measurement. During this whole stage, do not disconnect the
test leads of the instrument from the mains.
6. According to standard EN61008, the test for selective RCDs requires an interval of 60
seconds between the tests. The mode is therefore unavailable for selective RCDs,
both of A and of AC type.
7. When the RCD trips and breaks the circuit, if the
tripping current and tripping time are within the limits
reported in 12.4, the instrument gives a double acoustic
signal, shows the “OK” message and displays the
screen to the side.
