Where, Rset is the internal preset value.
The CT saturation is determined on a per phase basis. Ther
efore, the same calculation will be carried out for all 3
phases.
Example
In the example below, the current waveform based on 2-ends application. the current measured at local ends is
blue colour; the current measured at remote ends is red colour. This waveform is an evolving fault from external to
internal fault.
