Acceptance Testing

Although Basler Electric performs detailed acceptance testing on all new protection systems, it is
generally recommended that you perform each of the following acceptance test steps before installation.
The following steps test each function of the BE1-11g to validate that it was manufactured properly and
that no degradation of performance occurred because of shipping.

Test Equipment

Suitable test equipment requires a minimum of two current sources, two voltage sources, and a contact
wetting voltage. Test equipment should also have the capability of varying the frequency and the angle of
the voltage and current sources. A PC with BESTCOMSPlus

® installed and configured for communication

with the BE1-11g is also required.

Power Up

Purpose: To verify that the BE1-11g performs the power-up sequence.

Step 1: Apply voltage to input power terminals A6 and A7. Table 120 shows the appropriate input

voltage for each BE1-11g style.

Table 120. Input Voltages

Style Number

Voltage Input

Gxx1xxxxxxxxxx

48/125 Vac/dc

Gxx2xxxxxxxxxx

125/250 Vac/dc

Gxx3xxxxxxxxxx

24 Vdc

Step 2: Verify that the Power LED is ON, and that characters are displayed on the front panel. Upon

power-up, the BE1-11g will perform a brief self-test. During this brief test, all front-panel LEDs
flash momentarily, the display indicates each step of the self-test; Performing BIOS Tests…,
Loading Application…, Initializing Protection…, and then the default display screen. Contact
Basler Electric Technical Support Services if anything appears out of the ordinary or if an LCD
error message appears.

Communications

Purpose: To verify that the BE1-11g communicates through the USB and optional Ethernet port.

Step 1: Use BESTCOMSPlus to connect to the BE1-11g through the front-panel USB port and through

the optional rear panel Ethernet port. Refer to the

Communication

chapter.

Style Number and Serial Number Verification

Purpose: To verify that the BE1-11g style number and serial number matches the unit and unit labels.

Step 1: Connect to the BE1-11g through BESTCOMSPlus.

Step 2: Use the Settings Explorer to open the General Settings, Style Number screen and verify that the

style number matches the unit labels.

Step 3: Use the Settings Explorer to open the General Settings, Device Info screen and verify that the

serial number matches the unit labels.
