Procedure
1. Set the polarizing voltage to 1.2 · UNRel> and the phase angle between
voltage and current to the set characteristic angle (RCADir), the current
lagging the voltage.
2. Measure that the operate power is equal to the SN> setting for the set
directional element.
Note that for operation, both the injected current and voltage must be greater
than the set values INRel> and UNRel> respectively.
The function activates the START and STDIRIN outputs.
3.
Measure with angles j = RCADir +/- 45° that the measuring element operates
when 3I

· cos (RCADir - j) = 3I0 · 3U0 · cos(+/-45) = SN>.
4. Compare the result with the set value. Take the set characteristic into
consideration, see figure
60 and figure 61.
5.
Measure the operate time of the timer by injecting 1.2 · UNRel> and a current
to get two times the set SN> operate value.
