Protective Devices
PDIM Leackage Current Monitor
Shape compatible with and suitable for standard busbar connection to
other devices of the P-series
Twin-purpose terminal (lift/open-mouthed) above and below
Busbar positioning optionally above or below
Free terminal space despite installed busbar
Power supply via ‘OR’ disjunction of the 4 conductors
Electronic functioning (line-voltage independent)
The device works irrespective of the position of installation
Mains connection at either side
The 4-pole device can also be used for 3-pole connection.
For this purpose use terminals 1-2, 3-4, and 5-6.
The 4-pole device can also be used for 2-pole connection.
For this purpose use terminals 5-6 and N-N.
2 potential-free relays (make contact, in parallel with the yellow and red
LED) (up to 10 A / 230 V~)
Functioning
The green LED becomes active at 0-30% of the preset I
Δn.
The yellow LED becomes active at 30-50% of the preset I
Δn.
The red LED becomes active at >50% of the preset I
Δn.
The yellow LED turns off again when the identified residual current is <30%
of the preset I
Δn
.
The red LED stays on even if the identified residual current is <50% of the
preset I
Δn
.
The red LED will only turn off after pressing the reset button.
Only one LED will be active at a time.
An output relay will always be switched simultaneously with the yellow or
red LED
Depending on the setting of the type of RCD (instantaneous, G, S), the
residual current needs to flow a sufficiently long time before an action is
triggered.
Test function
The rotary coding switch for the RCD switch function is to be set to “TEST”.
The device then alternately simulates residual currents of 30% and 50% of
the I
Δn
. In this process, the yellow and red LED flash alternately (1 Hz), both
output relays remain permanently energised.
