Term
Definition
ATT
Automatic Trip Time Test.
CT
Current Transformer—a sensor that measures current. There are normally 3 CTs, one
for each phase, and an optional neutral CT.
CT Compensation
The system is designed to compensate for particular characteristics of the CTs used
in the Entellisys System in order to improve accuracy. If a user is testing the system
through secondary injection (input into the CT inputs of the EntelliGuard Messenger),
then the unique compensation algorithm must be disabled or test results will be
incorrect.
CT Rating
Rating of connected Current Transformer for that circuit breaker.
DAQ
Data Acquisition
Fault/Fault Level
The period of time and/or the voltage current condition during a fault.
Flux Shifter
One of two means to actuate the circuit breaker. The flux shifter is used to open (and
lockout) the circuit breaker when the CPU or EntelliGuard Messenger issues a trip
signal.
Frame Rating
Frame Size or Rating of the Circuit Breaker.
GF
Ground Fault overcurrent protection function
GF Defeat
Some tests like single phase tests, will trigger GF trips unintentionally. Therefore, it
may be desirable to disable or defeat GF temporarily during these tests.
HC
High Current Alarm protection function
HMI
Human Machine Interface
IOC
Instantaneous overcurrent protection function
LT
Long Time overcurrent protection function
Manual Breaker
Injection
User must manually setup the circuit breaker configuration and power line
characteristics to be injected into the system. Might be desired for a quick test.
NAN
Not a number—error message that gets displayed.
No Trip Test
A test that does not cause the circuit breaker to trip
OF
Over frequency relay protection function
OV
Overvoltage relay protection function
