User must supply external time delay (typically using setting in reclosing relay) to assure the minimum reclose time interval of 0.3 s in accordance with ANSI/IEEE
C37.06.
3
For ac tripping supply, capacitor trip is used. If ac trip without capacitor trip is used, the ac supply must be from a highly reliable power source (for example, from
an uninterruptible power supply).
