Figure 88: Parallel line is out of service and not earthed
When the parallel line is out of service and not earthed, the zero sequence on that line
can only flow through the line admittance to the earth. The line admittance is high
which limits the zero-sequence current on the parallel line to very low values. In
practice, the equivalent zero-sequence impedance circuit for faults at the remote bus
bar can be simplified to the circuit shown in figure
88
The line zero sequence mutual impedance does not influence the measurement of the
distance protection in a faulty circuit. This means that the reach of the underreaching
distance protection zone is reduced if, due to operating conditions, the equivalent zero
sequence impedance is set according to the conditions when the parallel system is out
of operation and earthed at both ends.

The reduction of the reach is equal to equation 51.
