In this mode the feeder is totally disconnected from the system because all the isolators are
open but all information is passed back to the central unit for inclusion in zone calculations
and hence the protection scheme. Hence the central unit can keep the zone elements in
service as the contribution of this feeder will be zero. (The CT is still used by the Check Zone
element)
Whilst in this mode the peripheral unit can be tested locally for example secondary injections
tests can be carried out.(The system is stable because during the current injection there is a
differential current in the CZ but not in the Zone)
