15.5.2.1 Fault current reversal logic
M15285-3 v7
Figure 195 and figure 196 show a typical system condition, which can result in a fault
current reversal.
Assume that fault is near the B1 breaker. B1 Relay sees the fault in Zone1 and A1 relay
identifies the fault in Zone2.
Note that the fault current is reversed in line L2 after the breaker B1 opening.
It can cause an unselective trip on line L2 if the current reversal logic does not block
the permissive overreaching scheme in the IED at B2.
