To measure RCD functions in an IT earthing system we have to simulate the fault
loop. This can be achieved in the Application Trainer by creating a fault loop
between two circuits. To create such a situation connect the line (black cable in
Figure 2-26) and the neutral (blue cable in Figure 2-26) cables to Line1 and Line2
of the first circuit. Then connect the PE cable (green cable in Figure 2-26) to one
of the Line conductors on the second circuit as shown in Figure 2-26.

Expected results
In a normal situation, the contact voltage should be well below 1 V (please see chapter
RCD trip-out contact voltage test for more information), whereas the trip-out time and
trip-out current should be within limits described in chapters RCD trip-out time test and
RCD trip-out current test.
In our case, the results we get for all three tests are within the expected limits.
