The EPM 5300P -NL offers a comprehensive limit and set point functionality. The user can
program above or below limits for every reading, including %THD. When a voltage or
current measurement exceeds a particular value, the set limit is triggered and alerts the
user. Each limit can trigger two internal Form C dry contact relays for alarm or secondary
protection.
The EPM 5300P offers two set limit points available for each measured function: LM1 and
LM2. Each limit can be set at any desired level. Note: The EPM 5200P does not have limit
setting capability.
