Measured input
Arc protection uses samples based on current measurements. If the required number of samples is
found to be above the setting limit, the current condition activates. The arc protection can alternatively
use either phase currents or residual currents in the tripping decision.
General settings
The following general settings define the general behavior of the function. These settings are static i.e.
it is not possible to change them by editing the setting group.

Displays the status of the sensor channel. If the number of sensors connected to the
channel does not match with the set "Channel 1/2/3/4 sensors" setting, this parameter
will go to the "Configuration fault" state.

Pick-up
The pick-up of each zone of the Iarc>/I0arc> function is controlled by one of the following: the phase
current pick-up setting, the residual current pick-up setting, or the sensor channels. The pick-up
setting depends on which of these are activated in the zone.
