The measuring of earth faults uses earth return compensation applied in a conventional way. The
compensation voltage is derived by considering the influence from the earth return path.
Compensation for earth return path for faults involving earth is done by setting the positive and
zero sequence impedance of the line. It is known that the ground compensation factor K
N
is,
