How to use

Connect the Selectronik-5 to the protection relay or circuit under test using the appropriate output leads and safety grounding. Select the required output waveform and current amplitude, set the frequency if applicable, and start the current output. Monitor the relay response or measurement equipment while adjusting the output to perform calibration, selective tripping, or fault location procedures. Follow standard safety procedures and lockout/tagout policies when connecting to live systems and ensure proper personal protective equipment is used.

Recommendations

Use the device in dry, well-ventilated environments and avoid exposure to excessive dust or moisture. Verify connections and grounding before operation, and start with lower current settings when first connecting to sensitive protection equipment. Perform tests according to relevant protection testing standards and manufacturer's instructions for the protection relays in the system.
