43、equipment shall be capable of verifying that the residual operating current of a RCM type A tested with an a.c. test current is lower or equal to the value of the rated residual operating current. Testing of RCMs type A shall be conducted with a suddenly applied calibrated a.c. current at zero cross

44、ing. The tests shall be carried out with a sinusoidal, or mains-derived quasi sinusoidal, test current. If the test equipment is capable of producing half-wave test currents, testing of residual current monitors (RCMs) type A may be carried out alternatively with half-wave test currents and/or a.c.

45、current with superimposed 6 mA d.c. according to IEC 62020. In case of pulsed d.c. current, the test equipment shall be capable of testing in both polarities. When testing RCMs of type B with a d.c. test current, it shall be verified that the residual operating current is lower or equal to 2 times t

46、he value of the rated residual operating current. Testing of RCMs type B shall be conducted separately with a suddenly applied, calibrated a.c. current and a continuously rising smooth direct current. The steepness of the continuous rate of rising shall not be higher than 2 IN/ 5 s. If the continuou

47、s rate of rising is simulated by a stepwise or linearly increasing test current, the increase shall not be higher than 2 IN/ 30 (see Figures 1 to 3). In both cases the starting current shall be below 0,2 IN. The operating uncertainty of the increasing test current IT shall not exceed 10 % of the rat

48、ed residual operating current IN.The operating uncertainty of the calibrated test current ITshall not exceed 0 % to +10 %. The test period shall be adapted to the set actuating time of the RCM and it shall be possible to extend the test period up to 10 s. BS EN 61557-11:2009 8 61557-11 IEC:2009 4.2

49、Non-operating test When a test at 50 % or less of the rated residual operating current to test the reliability of the RCM is included, the minimum test period shall be 10 s. The alarm shall not be activated. When a non-operating test at 50 % or less of the rated residual operating current is included, the operating uncertainty of the calibrated test current shall not exceed 0 % to 10 % of the specified non-operati
