Table 4.29. MHO area settings range
The MHO2 area has the same settings range as the MHO1.
Settings Z1A and Z1B delimit the MHO1 tripping area
(settings Z2A and Z2B delimit the MHO2 area). Setting Z1A
represents the oset (in ohms) of the area’s top. This value
can be positive (see Z1A in gure 1) or negative (see Z2A for
the MHO2 area). Setting Z1B represents the diameter of the
MHO1 area.
The protection operates dierently, depending on whether
the area is in undervoltage conditions or not. For one area
to be in undervoltage conditions, one of the following
circumstances must be met:
1. That the measurement in any of the voltage phases is
below the undervoltage start value.
2. That the area’s undervoltage monitoring setting is
disabled.
When the generator enters one of the MHO areas a timer
is activated. If the area is not in undervoltage conditions
the area’s alarm timer is activated. However, if the area is
in undervoltage conditions, the tripping activates the
area’s timer. The latest timer must be set to a value below
the other timer’s. The reason for this is that in undervoltage
conditions the fault must be cleared quickly in order to
avoid the electrical system becoming unstable, since the
generator has few possibilities to recover. Once the timer’s
time has elapsed, the corresponding outputs are activated.

It is the voltage (1.2*V

) dividided by the minimum current.
To make calculations for the impedances, the positive
sequence current must be equal or higher than a minimum
value set to 0.05 A. This way, the maximum impedance
corresponds to the quotient between the maximum voltage
and the minimum current.
