Test Procedures
Step 19. Slowly increase the magnitude of I
A
, without varying the phase
angle.
The relay R32Q element asserts, closing OUT107 when |I
A
| = 0.5
amps. This indicates that Z2c applied is greater than Z2RT, 3I
2
is greater than 50QR, and I
2
is greater than a2 • I
1
, where a2 is
the relay setting.
Step 20. Continue to increase the magnitude of I
A
. R32Q deasserts
when |I
A
| = 3.3 amps, indicating that Z2c is now less than
Z2RT. F32Q asserts, closing OUT106 when |I
A
| = 23.4 amps,
indicating that Z2c is less than Z2FT.
Step 21. Verify that the relay operated properly by calculating Z2c
through use of Equation 13.1 and the test quantities listed
below.
For:

NOTE: As you perform this test,
other protection elements can assert,
causing the relay to close other
output contacts and assert relay
targets. This is normal and is not a
cause for concern.
