Step 3
M15282-164 v6
This step has directional function and a time delay slightly larger than step 2, often
0.8 s. Step 3 shall enable selective trip of earth faults having higher fault resistance
to earth, compared to step 2. The requirement on step 3 is selectivity to other earth-
fault protections in the network. One criterion for setting is shown in Figure 270.
