requirement to have a short-circuit current
of 3 IN,so as to offer selective protection. In case of using the de-excitation,
provide a forced excitation.
3.2.3 - Special type of use
3.2.3.3 - R438 field forcing
WARNING 1
Excitation circuit E+, E- must not be left
open when the machine is running :
AVR damage will occur.
