Change the current using the slidac and ascertain the K6EL’s operating value each time by reading the ammeter. For example, R could take the values shown below: 30 mA: 3.3 kΩ, 6 W 100 mA: 1 kΩ, 20 W Safety Precautions ■ Correct Use Switching the Operating Time Installation and Wiring • Do not, under any circumstances, connect the ZCT’s output terminals k and l to ground. Doing so may result in damage to the Relay’s internal circuits. • Pass the primary conductor through the ZCT once. • The Relay detects ground faults in internal wiring of devices due to insulation deterioration and so install the ZCT as close to the power supply side as possible. 1. With the K6EL-A100, A200, and A500, the operating time can be switched using a flat-bladed screwdriver. 2. The operating time for the K6EL-30, 100, 200, and 500 is fixed and hence cannot be switched. ZCT Installation • Install the ZCT at an outdoor cable inlet or on a ground bus bar at a location allowing easy inspection. • When installing on the electrical path, use a ZCT with a value greater than the electrical path’s rated current. • If the secondary lines run in parallel to a circuit carrying a large current, either separate the lines as far as possible or use a shield line. Run the secondary lines close to each other. Sensed current selection switch Operating time selection switch Testing ZCT K6EL Primary conductor Separate by 20 cm min. Circuit carrying large current • When installing a separate-type ZCT with current flowing along the primary conductors, short the secondary terminals using clips or some other method. • If the ground fault indicator (red) lights when the Relay’s test button is pressed, it means that the internal circuits are operating normally. • To make an overall test, run a simulated ground fault current. Resetting • Once the relay models operate, it continues to operate until it is reset. Reset it either by pressing the reset button (black) or by turning the control power supply OFF and ON again. Switching the Sensed Current 1. With the K6EL-@100, 200, and 500 the sensed current can be switched using a flat-bladed screwdriver. 2. The sensed current for the K6EL-30 is fixed and hence cannot be switched. 10 K6EL Q&A Q: How does the K6EL operate when used for inverter loads (e.g., inverter motors and inverter air conditioners)? A: High-frequency noise may cause unnecessary operation. ALL DIMENSIONS SHOWN ARE IN MILLIMETERS. To convert millimeters into inches, multiply by 0.03937.
