The β is derived according to equation 35 for the mho circle and φ is the angle between
the voltage and current.

The measuring of ground faults uses ground-return compensation applied in a
conventional way. The compensation voltage is derived by considering the influence
from the ground-return path.
For a ground fault in phase A, the compensation voltage Vcomp can be derived, as
shown in figure 122.
