Figure 4-52: Third Harmonic Voltage Difference Application Example
We have the magnitude of neutral voltage V
N
as:
and the magnitude of the neutral and zero-sequence voltages |V
N
+ V
0
| as:
Therefore, under the normal conditions described above, we set the operating quantities
as follows:
In actual practice, the |V
N
| / |V
N
+ V
0
| ratio may vary from 0.4 to 0.85 under normal
conditions. The pickup and supervision setpoints are determined by evaluating the
operating quantities during a fault condition (refer to example 2 for details).
