Impedance calculation
This module calculates the apparent impedance based on the selected voltages and
currents. The Measurement mode and Phase Sel for Z Clc settings determine which
voltages and currents are to be used. If the Measurement mode is set to "1Phase-earth" or
"1Phase-phase", the Phase Sel for Z Clc setting is needed for determining which phase or
phase-phase voltages ("A or AB", "B or BC" and "C or CA") and currents should be used
for calculating the impedance.

If all three phase voltages and phase currents are fed to the protection
relay, the positive-sequence alternative is recommended.
