Broken wire detection
t
As mentioned above, all terminals of the measuring circuit are constantly
monitored for wire breaks - not only at Power-On or a manual or occasional
automatic test. The response time of monitoring is only a few seconds.
Broken wire detection between L(+) and L(-) is performed via coupled
alternating voltage. This alternating voltage is short-circuited if the
terminals are connected to the connected mains at low-resistance. The
device detects that the mains to be monitored is properly connected.
Since this broken wire detection is carried out with alternating voltage,
large capacitances should be avoided between L(+) and L(-), since
the capacitive reactance of these capacitances also short-circuits this
alternating voltage. The device would no longer detect a connection fault
on L(+)/L(-). Especially parallel lines should be prevented over larger
distances.
If larger capacitances between L(+)/L(-) cannot be avoided or if the coupled
alternating voltage interferes with the system, version LK 5895.12/011
(without broken wire detection on L(+)/L(-) ) shall be used.

With the self-test, contrary to the expanded test, the status of the output
relays and the analogue output are not affected; the sequence is as follows:
Switching to the negative measuring phase is performed for 4 sec. The
"HM" LED flashes here with a brief On-phase. The LEDs of the LED-chain
are selected in sequence and the internal circuit is checked. After this,
switching to the positive measuring phase is performed for 4 sec. The "HM"
LED flashes here with a long On-phase. The LED-chain cycles again and
additional internal tests are performed. Insulation measurement continues
normally after a pause of 2 sec if no faults have occurred.
The expanded test is started when the internal or external "Test" button is
pressed (or is still held) at the end of the 8 sec self-test, described above.
The sequence is the same as with the self-test (2 measuring phases at
4 sec + 2 sec pause); however, the output relays "AL" and "VW" as well
as the associated LEDs switch to the alarm state and the analogue output
proceeds to its lowest value.
If the Reset button is pressed during the 8 sec or terminals R-G are
connected, the expanded test is terminated after these 8 sec. Otherwise,
the phases of the expanded test are constantly repeated, where, in
addition, the "ERR" LED is on. However, the expanded test is terminated
as soon as the Reset button is pressed. The device switches to the OK-
state and restarts insulation measurement.

Behaviour with internal device faults

If internal device faults were detected during the test function, the "ERR"
LED is lit continuously and the measuring circuit is deactivated internally
("HM" LED goes off). The output relays "AL" and "VW" as well as the
associated LEDs switch to the alarm state and all LEDs of the LED-chain
extinguish.
