3VA27 molded case circuit breakers & 3WL10 air circuit breakers
76 Manual, 10/2018, L1V30499596002-01
Protection functions of the ETU
Switchover to the alternative of the external,
directly measured ground-fault protection
— ●
Switchover to alternative operating values with
ground-fault current during the switch-on phase
(inrush adaptation) for tripping characteristic t=k
(fixed) possible
— ●
Default value: OFF
Setting range of the switch-on phase (inrush
adaptation)
