"Ground fault detection" parameter
"Ground fault detection" parameter
The "Ground fault detection" parameter enables detection of a "ground fault". If the "Ground
fault detection" parameter is enabled, the relays trip instantaneously in the event of a ground
fault.
The table below shows the values for the "Ground fault detection" parameter.
Table 6-2
Value
0

The "Ground fault detection" parameter can only be modified via IO‑Link if no ground fault has
been detected. It cannot be adjusted at the device.
Tripping characteristic
The following information refers to sinusoidal fault currents of 50/60 Hz. With a motor current
between 0.3 and 2 times the rated operational current I
current that is 30% of the rated operational current. With a motor current between 2 times and
8 times the rated operational current I
the motor current.
The response delay is 0.5 to 1 s.
