Where two NPS elements are being used with different settings, it is convenient to test the elements with the
highest settings first. The elements with lower settings can then be tested without disabling the lower settings.
The Thermal withstand limitations of the current inputs, stated in the Performance Specification should always be
observed throughout testing.
NPS Overcurrent can be tested using a normal 3P balanced source. Two phase current connections should be
reversed so that the applied balanced 3P current is Negative Phase Sequence.
