ABB REL 356 Current Differential Protection
5-25
Testing
The apparent impedances seen by the relay in each of the above positions and the expected operation of the inner (21
BI) and outer (21 BO) blinders are the following:
Test #1 indicates the sequence of positions in the RX diagram to be applied and the time in cycles to hold the
position and the action of the relay.
The fault impedance measured should be 10.6 Ð 105 ohms.
