Level: neutral current (3I_0)
Pickup: 0.050 to 30.000 pu in steps of 0.001
Dropout: 97 to 98%
Memory duration: 5 to 25 cycles in steps of 1
Voltage supervision pickup (series compensation applications):
0 to 5.000 pu in steps of 0.001
GROUND DISTANCE OPERATING TIME CURVES
The operating times are response times of a microprocessor part of the relay. See output contacts specifications for estimation of the
total response time for a particular application. The operating times are average times including variables such as fault inception angle
or type of a voltage source (magnetic VTs and CVTs). The figure shows zone 1 ground distance time curves for a 60 Hz system at nominal
system frequency.
LINE PICKUP
Phase instantaneous overcurrent: 0.020 to 30.000 pu
Undervoltage pickup: 0.004 to 3.000 pu
Overvoltage delay: 0.000 to 65.535 s
PHASE/NEUTRAL/GROUND TOC
Current: Phasor or RMS
Pickup level: 0.020 to 30.000 pu in steps of 0.001
Dropout level: 97% to 98% of pickup
Level accuracy:
0.1 to 2.0 × CT: ±0.5% of reading or ±0.4% of rated (whichever is greater)

curve)
Curve multiplier: Time Dial = 0.00 to 600.00 in steps of 0.01
Reset type: Instantaneous/Timed (per IEEE)
Curve timing accuracy at 1.03 to 20 x pickup:
±3.5% of operate time or ±½ cycle (whichever is greater) from pickup to operate
Voltage restraint: Modifies pickup current for voltage in the range of 0.1 < V < 0.9 VT Nominal in a fixed linear rela-
