2. Functional Description.
LineTroll R400D base the fault sensing on detection changes in the electromagnetic field
below the conductors.
The unit is fully self-contained, no external transformers or connections of any kind are
required.
The indicator is looking for a specific sequence in the line conditions to happen before it starts
indicating a fault and send the alarm to the control center. The general sequence is as
follows: (ref. fig.2)
1. The line should be energised for at least 5 seconds. (Inrush blocking time is configurable)
2. The line current should increase rapidly above the value set by the user (the nominal trip
level).
3. The line should be de-energised.
