OPERATIONAL TEST
Introduction
The following procedures verify proper relay operation and calibration.
Results obtained from these procedures may no fall within specified tolerances. When evaluating results,
consider three prominent factors:
• Test equipment accuracy
• Testing method
• External test set components tolerance level
Pickup Verification
Step 1. Connect the test circuit as shown in Figure 5-2. Apply appropriate operating power, depending
on the power supply option (refer to the Style Chart in Section 1), to terminals 3 and 4. The
POWER LED should illuminate.
Step 2. For relay styles with target indicators, actuate the target reset switch to insure that the target is
reset.
Step 3. Make the following front panel adjustments on the BE1-40Q relay:
RANGE switch - LOW position
TAP switch - Position A (minimum)
TIME DELAY switches - 10 (1.0 second)
Step 4. If equipped with a power supply status output relay (option 2-S), verify that the contact is open
when external power is applied. Remove input power and verify that the status contacts close.
Re-apply external power.
