4.3.3.3 Functionality
The numerically stabilized low-impedance restricted ground-fault protection function
87LOZREF for a two winding transformer is based on the numerically stabilized
differential current principle. No external stabilizing resistor or non-linear resistor are
required.
The fundamental components of the currents are used for calculating the residual current
of the phase currents, the neutral current, differential currents and stabilizing currents. The
operating characteristics are according to the definite time.
The function contains a blocking functionality. The neutral current second harmonic is
used for blocking during the transformer inrush situation. It is also possible to block
function outputs, timers or the function itself, if desired.
4.3.3.4 Operation principle
The function can be enabled and disabled with the Operation setting. The corresponding
parameter values are “Enable” and “Disable”.
The operation of 87LOZREF can be described using a module diagram. All the modules
in the diagram are explained in the next sections.
