Neutral voltage displacement - ANSI code 59N
Neutral voltage displacement protection is a function that detects residual overvoltage. It comprises of time-delayed
characteristics.
2.3.2.1 Functionality
Neutral voltage displacement protection is used as time
delayed protection. As voltage input this function can
use measured U
e
or calculated 3U
0
source. It picks up
when voltage from selected source exceed the selected
threshold. The function can be enabled or disabled
through corresponding menu.
Several voltage displacement protection instances with
different settings can run independently at the same
time.
The selection of pickup value, pickup delay as well as
drop-out ratio and drop-out delay helps the user to fine
tune the protection according to the project
specifications.

Pickup delay
Trip delay
Drop-out delay
2.3.2.4 Block settings
Pickup of any instance separately of protection can be
individually blocked by any user defined signal [2.6.5.].
