4-1 . Test Port - a test port is built into each 

trip unit to allow use of a functional test kit.  

The test kit performs a test of the Long Delay, 

Short Delay, and Ground Fault functions.

4-2 . Test LED - to be used with a no trip 

functional test.  This LED is a dual function 

light.  As previously stated, the LED is used 

as a no trip indicator when using the test port.  

In normal modes, this LED indicates a high 

load alarm.  It will light if the continuous cur

-

rent is 95% of the setting and must be present 

for a 38 second duration.

4-3 . IR - Continuous Current Setting.  In 

accordance with standards requirements, the 

trip unit initiates a trip of the circuit breaker 

within 2 hours for an overload of 135% and 

will trip as a function of 12 t for higher cur

-

rents.  Continuous Current Values for each 

lettered setting are indicated by the chart on 

the right side of the trip unit.

4-4 . tR - The number of seconds required to 

trip @ 6x.  For example, IR - 800A, - 2 sec 

load current - 4800A (6x).  The breaker will 

trip in 2 seconds.

NOTE:  The last two time settings vary 

according to the frame as follows:  1200A - 

20,24, 1250A\800A - 14,14, 1600A - 20,20.  

NOTE:  There is a thermal memory capacitor 

that will affect the LDT time.  If the breaker 

has tripped on LD, this capacitor must be 

discharged or it will self discharge after five 

minutes.  If neither one of these choices has 

been done, the LD trip time will be shorter.

4-5 . Isd - Setting in multiples of IR.  For 

short circuit conditions that exceed the short 

delay pick-up setting, the trip unit initiates a 

trip after a predetermined delay.

4-6 . The - Ig (xIn) switch is the ground fault 

pick-up switch and is used on the LSIG & 

LSG styles to set the ground fault pick-up as a 

percentage of I (Frame current).  For example, 

a 1200A frame with an Ig (xIn) setting of 0.4 

will provide a ground fault pick-up at 480A.

4-7 . For the LSI style, the Short Delay time is 

a flat response determined by the tsd/tg switch 

setting of INST, 120ms or 300ms.  For the LS 

style, the short delay time is an 12t function.
