Setting of reach in resistive direction
Set the resistive reach R1 independently for each zone.
Set separately the expected fault resistance for phase-to-phase faults RFPP and for the
phase-to-ground faults RFPE for each zone. For each distance zone, set all remaining
reach setting parameters independently of each other.
The final reach in resistive direction for phase-to-ground fault loop measurement
automatically follows the values of the line-positive and zero-sequence resistance, and
at the end of the protected zone is equal to equation
86.

Setting of the resistive reach for the underreaching zone 1 should follow the condition
to minimize the risk for overreaching:
IECEQUATION2305 V1 EN (Equation 88)
The fault resistance for phase-to-phase faults is normally quite low, compared to the
fault resistance for phase-to-ground faults. To minimize the risk for overreaching, limit
