8.4 SE-TA6A-SERIES TERMINATION ASSEMBLY TESTS


Apply 15 Vdc across the series combination of a
100-, 5-W current-limiting resistor and the termination
assembly, as shown in Fig. 15. In the reverse biased test,
the voltage should be 5.6 V across the termination
assembly terminals. In the forward biased test, the
voltage across the termination assembly terminals should
be between 0.3 and 0.9 V.

8.5 GROUND-FAULT PERFORMANCE TEST


To meet the requirements of the National Electrical
Code (NEC), as applicable, the overall ground-fault
protection system requires a performance test when first
installed. A written record of the performance test is to
be retained by those in charge of the electrical installation
in order to make it available to the authority having
jurisdiction. A test-record form is provided for recording
the date and the final results of the performance tests.
The following ground-fault system tests are to be
conducted by qualified personnel:
a) Evaluate the interconnected system in accordance
with the overall equipment manufacturer’s detailed
instructions.
b) Verify proper location of the ground-fault current
sensor. Ensure the cables pass through the ground-
fault-current-sensor window. This check can be done
visually with knowledge of the circuit. The
connection of the current-sensor secondary to the SE-
134C is not polarity sensitive.
c) Verify that the system is correctly grounded and that
alternate ground paths do not exist that bypass the
current sensor. High-voltage testers and resistance
bridges can be used to determine the existence of
alternate ground paths.
d) Verify proper reaction of the circuit-interrupting
device in response to a simulated or controlled
ground-fault current. To simulate ground-fault
current, use CT-primary current injection. Fig. 14
shows a test circuit using Littelfuse Startco Ground- Retain this record for the authority having jurisdiction.
