3.5.7. Directional definite time overcurrent protection
(DirCurrentDT)
A. Application
Directional overcurrent function for
· detecting phase faults on ring lines
· detecting phase faults on double-circuit lines with an infeed at
one end
· backup protection for a distance protection scheme.
B. Features
· directionally sensitive three-phase phase fault protection
· insensitive to DC component
· insensitive to harmonics
· voltage memory feature for close faults.
C. Inputs and outputs
I. C.t./v.t. inputs
· current
