7.1.2 Functionality
M13787-3 v13
The line distance protection is an up to five (depending on product variant) zone full scheme
protection function with three fault loops for phase-to-phase faults and three fault loops for
phase-to-ground faults for each of the independent zones. Individual settings for each zone in
resistive and reactive reach gives flexibility for use as back-up protection for transformer
connected to overhead lines and cables of different types and lengths.
ZMQPDIS (21) together with Phase selection with load encroachment FDPSPDIS (21) has
functionality for load encroachment, which increases the possibility to detect high resistive faults
on heavily loaded lines, as shown in figure
67.
