increases the impedance of the protection relay; hence the name high-
impedance differential scheme.

Figure 278: Phase-segregated bus differential protection based on high-impedance
principle
CT secondary winding resistances (R
in
) and connection wire resistances (R
m
/2) are also
shown in Figure 279.
Figure 279 demonstrates a simplified circuit consisting only of one incoming and
outgoing feeder. To keep it simple, the voltage-dependent resistor (R
u
) is not included.
The wiring resistances are presented as total wiring resistances R
m1
and R
m2
.
R
m1
is the maximum wiring resistance concerning all incoming feeder
sets, whereas R
m2
is the maximum wiring resistance concerning all
outgoing feeder sets.
