10. Testing
It is recommended that the EAFR-101 relay be tested prior
to substation energizing. Testing is carried out by simulating
arc light to each sensor and verifying the tripping and LED
indication. For arc light simulation, a superior camera flash
type is used: Canon Speedlite
®
430EX or equivalent. For
testing of non-latched signals and the CBFP function, use
a Mini Maglite
®
2 Cell AAA or equivalent type of flashlight.
Check that the camera flash or flashlight has fully charged
battery(ies) when testing.
10.1 Carrying Out Testing in the Light Only Mode
1. Check that the dipswitch setting positions are in accor-
dance to your application.
2. Activate the camera flash within 20 cm (7.87 in.) of the
EAFR-01 to be used.
3. Verify that the corresponding sensor channel indication
LED status is changed to ON.
4. Verify the relay output(s) activation(s) by checking the
circuit breaker status or by monitoring trip contact sta-
tus. The circuit breaker should open or contacts oper-
ate.
otee:
N
A best practice is to operate the circuit breaker dur-
ing testing.
5. Verify that the corresponding relay output(s) LED(s) indi-
cation status is changed to ON.
6. If the binary output (BO1) signal is utilized, verify the
BO1 signal activation by the status change of the rele-
vant input where the binary output signal is connected,
or by measuring the signal output voltage.
otee:
N
The BO1 signal is a non-latched type.
7. If a binary output signal is utilized, verify that the BO1
LED is illuminated.
8. Press the SET push-button to reset all indications and
latches.
9. If a binary input BI2 is utilized as master trip to activate
the corresponding binary input, verify that the trip has
occurred by repeating Steps 4 and 5.
10. Press the SET push-button to reset all indications and
latches.
11. Repeat the testing procedure for all sensors.
