About <strong>EDS3365</strong>Basic standardsIf a power supply system is set-up as an IT system, the relevant standards requirethat the first <strong>in</strong>sulation fault to occur must be elim<strong>in</strong>ated as quickly as possible:IEC 60364-4-41, Po<strong>in</strong>t 413.1.5.4 (Note),DIN VDE 0100 Part 410:1997-01, Po<strong>in</strong>t 413.1.5.4 (Note)It is recommended that the first fault should be elim<strong>in</strong>ated with the shortestpractical delay.Rapid <strong>in</strong>sulation fault location is made possible thanks to <strong>in</strong>sulation fault locat<strong>in</strong>gsystems such as the <strong>EDS3365</strong>, EDS3065, EDS473, EDS470 or RCMS470. In this way,the risk of the supply voltage be<strong>in</strong>g switched off because of a possible secondfault is considerably reduced.The standard IEC61557-9 deals with devices for <strong>in</strong>sulation fault location <strong>in</strong> IT ACsystems dur<strong>in</strong>g operation, IT AC systems with galvanically connected DC circuitsand IT DC systems. This <strong>in</strong>ternational standard lays down some specialrequirements for <strong>in</strong>sulation fault location systems <strong>in</strong> IT systems of up to AC 1000V and DC 1500 V.BENDER‘s <strong>in</strong>sulation fault location systems are based on this standard IEC61557-9.As far as possible, this operat<strong>in</strong>g manual attempts to use the term<strong>in</strong>ology of thedraft standard, <strong>in</strong>clud<strong>in</strong>g the term ‘<strong>in</strong>sulation fault location system´. This <strong>in</strong>dicatesnot only that <strong>in</strong>sulation faults with 0 Ω (earth faults) are found, but also resistivefaults.In addition, IEC 61010-1 is applicable. The title of this <strong>in</strong>ternational standard is”Safety requirements for electrical equipment for measurement, controland laboratory use”.Terms and def<strong>in</strong>itionsI ∆I ∆nI ∆s= fault current. The current that comes to flow through an <strong>in</strong>sulation fault.= rated residual operat<strong>in</strong>g current. The fault current at which the evaluatorunit responds under specified conditions.= measured value of the selective fault current of the evaluator unit.IMD = Insulation Monitor<strong>in</strong>g DeviceRCM = Residual Current MonitorRCD = Residual Current Protective Device6TGH1320E/03.2000
