SKM 1-line - Modeling (Ground Fault) Relays

Wondering the right way to model this, I was told that the relay must be placed in a way so that it can open/close the switch, otherwise it's just a passive device.
But I don't know what that means in context of my model exactly.
Is this correct (snapshot of SKM below)? I placed the relay after the switch and before the fuse, which is how it seems to be in the actual switchboard. The switchboard in real life has an incoming line-side connection, feeding the switch, which appears to feed the fuse, which then appears to feed the switchboard bus. The relays appear to sit in between the fuse and switch.

For SKM purposes, you can place the relay where ever you want on the SKM oneline, it doesn't matter. You will add characteristics for the GF relay from the library and tell it what other TCC characteristics need to be shown on the same TCC for coordination

Thanks! As long as that's all I have to do. I have added the GF function and used the .lib file SKM provided for me and configured the settings accordingly
