IR IED pickup current (U>Trip/SeriesResistor)
Ires is the current through the voltage limiter and
ΣImag is the sum of the magnetizing currents from all CTs in the circuit (for example, 4 for
restricted earth fault protection, 2 for reactor differential protection, 3-5 for autotransformer
differential protection).
It should be remembered that the vectorial sum of the currents must be used (IEDs,
Metrosil and resistor currents are resistive). The current measurement is insensitive
to DC component in fault current to allow the use of only the AC components of
the fault current in the above calculations.
The voltage dependent resistor (Metrosil) characteristic is shown in Figure
54.

/
SeriesResistor should always be lower than 200 W to allow continuous activation
during testing. If this value is exceeded, testing should be done with a transient
faults.
