Features:
· For two- and three-winding transformers
· Three-phase function
· Current-adaptive characteristic
· High stability for external faults and current transformer saturation
· No auxiliary transformers necessary because of vector group and CT ratio compensation
· Inrush restraint using 2nd harmonic
