The different steps can be described as follows.
Step 1
M15282-123 v6
This step has directional instantaneous function. The requirement is that
overreaching of the protected line is not allowed.

The residual current out on the line is calculated at a fault on the remote busbar
(one- or two-phase-to-earth fault). To assure selectivity it is required that step 1
shall not give a trip at this fault. The requirement can be formulated according to
Equation
461.

EQUATION1199 V3 EN-US (Equation 461)
As a consequence of the distribution of zero sequence current in the power system,
the current to the protection might be larger if one line out from the remote busbar
is taken out of service, see Figure 266.
