2)
By removing the front cover of MD1701-01/MD1701-02, access to internal circuits for testing purposes can be achieved. A metallic probe secured to the inside face of the MD1701-01 cover is automatically withdrawn when the cover is removed, so interrupting the circuit between terminal 13 and terminal 14. By routing the main DC auxiliary supply to the protection scheme or relay through this circuit, removal of the test block cover will thereby prevent maloperation of the protection during the ensuing tests. This link is not provided on the MD1701-02 because the contacts between terminals 13 and 14 are normally closed. Please refer to the following figure for this function.

Note! The continuity of CJ28T test plug leads and the state of their insulation should be checked before insertion into the MD1701-01/MD1701-02 test block.
3.2.1 CT Shorting Links (CJ2T/CJ4T) When CT shorting links (CJ2T and CJ4T) cooperate with multi-finger test plug (CJ28T) to short-link different circuits, please check the short-link position carefully, and then plug CJ2T/CJ4T and CJ28T to corresponding test block. Please refer to Figure 3.1-7 for CJ4T (Four-terminal CT shorting link); Please refer to Figure 3.1-8 for CJ2T (Two-terminal CT shorting link).
3.2.2 Test Blocks (MD1701-01/MD1701-02) and Multi-finger Test Plug (CJ28T) Note! Before using CJ28T multi-finger test plug, please confirm you can understand the warnings printed on CJ28T. The printed warnings are listed as below: Note: Please confirm CT secondary windings are short-circuited and test supplies are isolated BEFORE the plug is inserted! Please refer to the diagram for connections. Note! Before using MD1701-01/MD1701-02 test block and CJ28T multi-finger test plug, please confirm you can understand warnings and introductions in this section. Note! Terminal 13 and terminal 14 on MD1701-01 test block and CJ28T multi-finger test plug must not be used for CT connections since they may present a safety hazard. If MD1701-02 test block cooperates with CJ28T, terminal 13 and terminal 14 of MD1701-02 must not be used for CT connections since this will present a safety hazard. The reason for this is that the associated CJ28T test plug contact finger is shorter than the others. This would result in an open circuit path on the MD1701-02. Note! When CJ28T is inserted into MD1701-01/MD1701-02 test block, the screws of CJ28T must be tightened to ensure CJ28T is inserted into the test block firmly. When MD1701-01/MD1701-02 test block is installed to proper position, an earth connection should be made to the case of this product. Moreover, the cover (with a shorting link for terminal 13 and terminal 14) should be connected to MD1701-01 firmly, while the other cover (without shorting link) should be connected to MD1701-02 firmly. MD1701-01/MD1701-02 test block carries 14 circuits, each of which is brought out to separate pairs of terminals at the rear of the case.

Figure 3.2-3 Single-finger test plug
Note! An ammeter on the correct range should be connected to the two leads before YJ2T is inserted, especially if a CT secondary circuit is being monitored. Current measurements function and voltage measurements function are provided by YJ2T single-finger test plug as introduced in the following sections. 3.2.3.1 Current Measurements YJ2T single-finger test plug allows the current in any of the circuits routed through the test block to be monitored. When using YJ2T to monitor secondary CT current, the leads from this must never be open circuited, otherwise lethal voltages may be generated. Before YJ2T is inserted into the test plug, the connected ammeter must be on the correct range. With this plug in the test block, the ammeter range must not be changed. Therefore, potentially lethal voltages can be avoided. 3.2.3.2 Voltage Measurements Hazardous live voltages will be accessible via the YJ2T single-finger test plug leads when using YJ2T for voltage measurements. Connections to other equipment (e.g.: CTs, DC power supplies), should be made to odd numbered terminals on the test block. This ensures that when the test plug CJ28T is used, the sockets in the white half of the plug are the isolated relay circuits, and the sockets in the blue half are connected to the potentially live power supplies as shown in Figure 3.2-1. Note! It is essential that the sockets in the CJ28T test plug which correspond to current transformer secondary windings are by shorted using external links before the test plug is inserted into the MD1701-01/MD1701-02 test block. It ensures that current transformer secondary windings are short-circuited before they are disconnected from the protection. Please refer to Figure 3.1-5 .

Terminal 13 and terminal 14 of MD1701-01 can be used to connect the main DC auxiliary supply to the protection scheme or relay through this circuit. If it is necessary to use the DC auxiliary power supply during testing, then it can be linked across using the sockets in the CJ28T test plug. Test equipment can be connected to the relay or scheme by using the sockets in the white area of CJ28T. If more than one MD1701-01 test block is used in the connections to a relay, it is recommended to route the DC power supply through each of them, so as to avoid maloperation.
