3b.3.2.7  ‘Two out of Three’ Relay Alarm System 
In the following diagrams (7A & 7B) 

 indicate the electrode channel selected for each 
relay.  A fully functioning system (NO FAULTS) will cause a low level trip at electrode level 2.  
Using high-level electrode channels and SW5 set to ES, the circuit can perform a high level trip. 
Note: Inputs from electrodes 1 & 2 are applied to two separate relays on their respective boards. 
Case A - Relays normally energised, de-energise two to trip
