Time Synchronization

For system-wide understanding of arc flash phenomena in highly critical applications, it is important to have consistent timestamping. The date and time should be accurately distributed to connected products and other systems. Time synchronization can be performed using various technologies (PTP, NTP, SNTP, etc.). An external master clock is required and can be connected to a GPS antenna to reach the expected time precision.

For less critical applications, a simple time synchronization over Modbus can be sufficient.
