If the relay detects that the breaker is closed and no voltage is sensed across the terminals of the open
output contact after the appropriate coordination time delay (approximately 500 milliseconds), the relay
sets an alarm bit in the programmable alarms function and sets the CKTMON BESTlogic logic variable to
TRUE.
Figure 6-15 shows a typical connection diagram for the circuit monitor. Also, see Section 8,
Application,
Application Tips,
for instructions on how to program a close-circuit monitoring function in BESTlogic. In
this example, OUT7 is tripping the lockout relay (86T) and IN3 is monitoring the lockout relay status.

CAUTION
Applications that place other device inputs in parallel with the breaker trip coil
may not perform as desired when the trip coil monitor is active. The connection of
other devices in parallel with the trip coil causes a voltage divider to occur when
the breaker or trip circuit is open. (Figure 6-16 shows a schematic representation
of the equivalent circuit.) This may cause false tripping of the other devices and
prevent the BE1-CDS240 trip circuit monitor from reliably detecting an open
circuit. If this situation exists, the trip coil monitor can be removed from the circuit.
Refer to Section 12,
Installation, Trip Coil Monitor (TCM) Jumpers,
for complete
instructions.
The circuit monitor sensing element has the same rating as the power supply
voltage. If the trip circuit voltage is significantly greater than the power supply
voltage (for example, when using a capacitor trip device), the trip circuit monitor
circuits should be disabled.
