|PGFM SERIES (ELCI, MARINE)
ELCI MARINE GROUND FAULT PROTECTION SENSING MODULE
Introduction
The LineGard™ PGFM product family provides ELCI (equipment leakage) ground fault sensing and is designed and manufactured by North Shore Safety,
a leader in innovative safety products. The PGFM series operates in tandem with an Airpax™ LEL series, UL 489 listed circuit breaker, with shunt trip and
auxiliary switch manufactured by Sensata Technologies. The PGFM can be paired with an Airpax™ IDLNK breaker for applications requiring ignition
protection.
The combined assembly of the PGFM and an Airpax™ breaker meets the requirements of ABYC E-11 for ground fault protection and main shore power
circuit protection. The PGFM constantly monitors the current balance of the conductors (wires / cables) supplying power to the load. When a ground
fault of 27mA nominal (30 mA max) occurs, the PGFM uses the LEL’s shunt trip coil to signal the breaker to trip.

the requirements of the ABYC (American Boat and Yacht Council) E-11 standard covering
AC and DC systems on boats
Note:
1. Manual configuration should be specified if automatic start-up after power restoration of circuit power creates an unsafe condition.
2. As per UL 943 requirements, portable devices may require breaking of neutral during ground fault detection. Please contact the factory.
3. Please contact Airpax for optional ELCI, UL 1053 compliant devices.

1. Read and follow all instructions
2. Identify all the features and wires (see drawings)
3. Identify line wires and load wires
4. Verify that the ratings on the device, including the circuit breaker,
match your field line ratings
5. Strip wires to 5/8”, or as recommended for your connections
(module may include field terminations)
6. Choose the right wiring application (120VAC or 120/240VAC split
phase) and connect wires according to diagrams
7. Place supplied test instruction label in close proximity to the ground
fault sensing module mounting location.
NOTE: The ground wire should be connected externally. The Ground
wire does not enter or exit the ground fault sensing module. Although
the PGFM does not monitor ground leads or require ground to operate,
ground connection is recommended and should be made at junction
box.
In the normal operating state, the PGFM green LED is “ON” and
circuit breaker is in the “ON” position.
1. Press “TEST” button: Green LED should go “OFF” and red LED should
come “ON” and circuit breaker should trigger to “OFF” position
2. If sensing device red LED does not illuminate or breaker does not
trip or change state, DO NOT USE and consult an electrician for
assistance
3. Press “RESET” button: Red LED should turn “OFF” and green LED
should turn “ON”
4. Manually reset (switch) the circuit breaker to the “ON” position to
restore circuit power
WARNING: If the test fails, do not use this ELCI. Consult a qualified
electrician for repair or replacement
