4.2.7.4 Operation principle
The function can be enabled and disabled with the
Operation
setting. The
corresponding parameter values are "On" and "Off".
The operation of MFADPSDE can be described using a module diagram. All the
modules in the diagram are explained in the following sections.

General fault criterion
The General fault criterion ( GFC) module monitors the presence of earth fault in the
network and it is based on the value of the fundamental frequency zero-sequence
voltage defined as the vector sum of fundamental frequency phase voltage phasors
divided by three.

When the magnitude of

Voltage start value
, an earth fault
is detected. The GFC module reports the exceeded value to the Fault direction
determination module and Operation logic. The reporting is referenced as General
Fault Criterion release.
The setting
Voltage start value
defines the basic sensitivity of the MFADPSDE
function. To avoid unselective start or operation,
Voltage start value
must always
be set to a value which exceeds the maximum healthy-state zero-sequence
voltage value, taking into consideration of possible network topology changes,
compensation coil and parallel resistor switching status and compensation degree
variations.
As an alternative for internal residual zero-sequence overvoltage based start-
condition, MFADPSDE function can also be externally released by utilizing the
