4.2.4.3 Functionality
The admittance-based earth-fault protection function EFPADM provides a
selective earth-fault protection function for high-resistance earthed, unearthed and
compensated networks. It can be applied for the protection of overhead lines as
well as with underground cables. It can be used as an alternative solution to
traditional residual current-based earth-fault protection functions, such as the IoCos
mode in DEFxPDEF. Main advantages of EFPADM include a versatile
applicability, good sensitivity and easy setting principles.
EFPADM is based on evaluating the neutral admittance of the network, that is, the
quotient:
