The phase mho distance function uses a dynamic 100% memory-polarized mho characteristic with additional reactance,
directional, and overcurrent supervising characteristics. When set to “Non-directional”, the mho function becomes an offset
mho with the reverse reach controlled independently from the forward reach, and all the directional characteristics
removed.
Each phase distance zone is configured individually through its own setting menu. All of the settings can be independently
modified for each of the zones except:
1. The
SIGNAL SOURCE setting (common for the distance elements of all zones as entered under SETTINGS  GROUPED
ELEMENTS
 SETTING GROUP 1(6)  DISTANCE).
2. The
MEMORY DURATION setting (common for the distance elements of all zones as entered under SETTINGS 
GROUPED ELEMENTS  SETTING GROUP 1(6)  DISTANCE).
The common distance settings described earlier must be properly chosen for correct operation of the phase distance ele-
ments. Additional details may be found in chapter 8: Theory of operation.
Ensure that the PHASE VT SECONDARY VOLTAGE setting (see the SETTINGS  SYSTEM SETUP  AC INPUTS 
VOLTAGE BANK menu) is set correctly to prevent improper operation of associated memory action.
• PHS DIST Z1 DIR: All phase distance zones are reversible. The forward direction is defined by the PHS DIST Z1 RCA
setting, whereas the reverse direction is shifted 180° from that angle. The non-directional zone spans between the for-
ward reach impedance defined by the
PHS DIST Z1 REACH and PHS DIST Z1 RCA settings, and the reverse reach imped-
ance defined by PHS DIST Z1 REV REACH and PHS DIST Z1 REV REACH RCA as illustrated below.
