Ground-Fault Protection
Equipment ground-fault protection protects 
conductors against overheating and faults from 
ground-fault currents (
d1200 A).
Equipment ground-fault protection is 
standard on 6.0A trip units.
Ground-fault pickup (Ig) (A) sets ground 
current level where circuit breaker will trip 
after the preset time delay.
Ground-fault delay (tg) (B) sets the length of 
time that the circuit breaker will carry a 
ground-fault current above the ground-fault 
pickup current level before tripping.
Equipment ground-fault protection can be 
zone-selective interlocked (ZSI) with 
upstream or downstream circuit breakers. 
Setting the ground-fault delay (tg) to the 0 
setting turns off zone-selective interlocking.
Neutral protection and equipment ground-
fault protection are independent and can 
operate concurrently.

NOTE: Use I

t off with ZSI for proper coordination. Using I

t on with ZSI is 
not recommended as the delay in the upstream device receiving a restraint 
signal could result in the trip unit tripping in a time shorter than the 
published trip curve.
