3.2.2.2 PHASE FAULT REVERSE IMPEDANCE REACH LINE
The Reverse Impedance Reach line of the phase quadrilateral elements has a tilt that is fixed at -3° as shown in the

For an Offset zone, Z’ is the settable reverse reach. For a directional zone Z’ is a fixed percentage (either 25% or
100%) of the forward reach (Z) in the opposite direction.
