Therefore, applying current Iac only (from T1000 PLUS)
may result in a trip even when the current generated
by the D1000 is zero: you must increase D1000 current
until the relay contact drops out
If transformer Taps have to be taken into account, the
above formulas become a little more complex:

1.15.8 Second harmonic restraint test
This test requires that you generate a distorted waveform:
The only way to generate such current waveform is to parallel
the main and auxiliary currents, having selected an 100 Hz
