How is an RCD test performed according to Installation Regulation 1082 and Standard HD60364?
1) Is authentication active on the installation level?
A: If no, add the charger to the installation, then conduct the RCD test before activating authentication on the charger.
B: If yes, add the charger to the installation, set charger in stand-alone mode and then conduct the RCD test. REMOVE stand-alone mode after completion of test.
2) Use an RCD tester compliant with EN/IEC 62423, such as Metrel MI 3155. Connect the RCD tester via a Type 2 tester with 4mm sockets, such as Megger 1013-317.
3) Move CP state from A to C to close the relays in the charger.
4) After each test point, move CP state back to A, then B. Wait until charger LED is blue, then move to state C. Conduct the next RCD test point.
Does the RCD automatically reconnect after testing with a type 2 adapter?
No. Pilot state must be manually changed each time.
According to HD60364, we must test all properties during the initial verification:
No comment, this is the installer’s responsibility in their respective countries.
