The function shall not operate for any of the calculated currents to the protection. The
minimum theoretical current setting (Imin) will be:
EQUATION284 V1 EN-US (Equation 34)
A safety margin of 5% for the maximum static inaccuracy and a safety margin of 5% for
maximum possible transient overreach have to be introduced. An additional 20% is suggested
due to inaccuracy of instrument transformers under transient conditions and inaccuracy in the
system data.
The minimum primary current setting (Is) is:
EQUATION285 V3 EN-US (Equation 35)
In case of parallel lines with zero sequence mutual coupling a fault on the parallel line, as
shown in figure 50, should be calculated.
