Q&A
Q: How does the K6EL operate when used for inverter loads (e.g., inverter motors and inverter air conditioners)?
A: The influence of high-frequency noise generated by the inverter has been reduced by combining a special ground
fault relay IC and a capacitor for cutting out high-frequencies. The possibility of malfunctions due to the influence
of the inverter is much less than with the existing ESA Ground Fault Relay.
Q: What connection method should be used for ungrounded electrical paths?
A: With ungrounded electrical paths, connect the capacitor or resistor for detection in the way shown in the diagram.
The table shows the formulas for calculating the resistance or capacitance as well as the formulas for calculating
ground currents for complete ground faults. (Depending on the location, the allowable ground fault current may be
restricted. In this case, use values of R and C that do not exceed the restrictions.)
