SHORT CIRCUIT TEST
The SR469 specification for short circuit timing is +40ms or ±0.5% of total time. The pickup accuracy is as per the phase current inputs. Per-
form the steps below to verify the performance of the short circuit element.
1. Alter the following setpoints:
SETPOINT S2:SYSTEM SETUP\CURRENT SENSING\PHASE CT PRIMARY: 1000
SETPOINT S6:CURRENT ELEMENTS\SHORT CIRCUIT TRIP\SHORT CIRCUIT TRIP: On
SETPOINT S6:CURRENT ELEMENTS\SHORT CIRCUIT TRIP\ASSIGN TRIP RELAYS: Trip
SETPOINT S6:CURRENT ELEMENTS\SHORT CIRCUIT TRIP\SHORT CIRCUIT TRIP PICKUP: 5.0 x CT
SETPOINT S6:CURRENT ELEMENTS\SHORT CIRCUIT TRIP\INTENTIONAL S/C DELAY: 0
2. Inject current as per the table below, resetting the unit after each trip by pressing the [RESET] key, and verify timing accuracy. Pre-trip
values may be viewed by pressing the [NEXT] after each trip.
