Intelligent Ramp – ta+I

 Function (PROFITEST MXTRA only)
14.7.1 Applications
The advantage of this measuring function in contrast to individual 
measurement of I
ΔN
 and t
A
 is the simultaneous measurement of 
breaking time and breaking current by means of a test current 
which is increased in steps, during which the RCD is tripped only 
once.
The intelligent ramp is 
subdivided into time 
segments of 300 ms 
each between the initial 
current value (35% I
ΔN
) 
and the final current 
value (130% I
ΔN
). This 
results in a gradation for 
which each step corre-
sponds to a constant 
test current which is 
applied for no longer 
than 300 ms, assuming 
that tripping does not 
occur.
And thus both tripping 
current and tripping time are measured and displayed.
