The test of the out-of-step protection function requires the injection of the analog
quantities for a quite long time. The rating of the analogue channels is considered in order
to avoid any hardware damage. The test current is lower than the continuous permissive
overload current I
ovrl
of the protection current channels of the transformer module.
If the rated secondary current I

of the analog channel is 1 A, then the maximum current

Reference is made to the numerical values of the example, explained in the “Setting
guidelines” of the Application Manual. A test current equal to 2.5 time the base current of
the generator is chosen; this choice is related to the selected test voltage that is applied
while testing the point SE and RE.
