Where I

and I

have been described in the previous paragraph. Considering the
safety margins mentioned previously, the minimum setting (Is) for the
instantaneous phase overcurrent protection 3-phase output is then:
EQUATION83 V2 EN-US (Equation 99)
The protection function can be used for the specific application only if this setting
value is equal or less than the maximum phase fault current that the IED has to
clear.
The IED setting value IP>> is given in percentage of the primary base current
value, IBase. The value for IP>> is given from this formula:
