• For relay 3, channel 1 communicates to relay 1 and channel 2 communicates to relay 2
Consequently, to achieve the maximum sensitivity of 0.2 pu at the terminal with a CT ratio of 2000/5 (400 amps line primary
differential current), the following pickup values are chosen:
(EQ 9.11)
Choosing relay as a reference with a breakpoint value of 5.0 pu, breakpoints for relays 2 and 3 are calculated as follows:
(EQ 9.12)
(EQ 9.13)
To verify the calculated values, we have:
(EQ 9.14)
This satisfies the equality condition indicated earlier.
During on-load tests, the differential current at all terminals should be the same and generally equal to the charging current
if the tap and CT ratio settings are chosen correctly.
