Normally the voltage can be increased to higher values than the calculated
minimum U>Trip with a minor change of total operating values as long as this is
done by adjusting the resistor to a higher value. Check the sensitivity calculation
below for reference.

The current transformer saturation voltage must be at least 2 ˣ U>Trip to have
sufficient operating margin. This must be checked after calculation of U>Trip.
When the R value has been selected and the U>Trip value has been set, the
sensitivity of the scheme IP can be calculated. The IED sensitivity is decided by
the total current in the circuit according to equation
14.
