0 Ground Fault Pickup levels shown are nominal values when tested
with uternal power present such is the case in Digitrip 600, 700
lP

and 800 models. Without external power, such as is the case with
the Digitrip 500, Ground Pickup levels may exceed these values and
0 be as high as the value shown for the "E" sening of that particular 10
9 rating plug. 9
8 @ Specific rating plug required for 50 HZ or 60 HZ, applications. 8
7 C� All tabulated values are based on the use of a residual sensing
6 scheme with the same rated current sensor in all phase and neutral
ca

5
conductors.
(�1 Curves apply from -20°C to + 55°C ambient.
4 @:; With zone interlocking on ground fault utilized and no restraining
signal, the minimum time band !GDM ) will be in effect - regardless
