Applications
The voltage inputs do not need to be connected. Voltage is needed for voltage elements, synchronism check elements,
frequency elements, voltage-polarized directional elements, fault location, metering (i.e., voltage, MW, MVAR), and
frequency tracking. Voltage Channel VS (SEL-351A only) is shown connected for use in voltage and synchronism check
elements and voltage metering. See Synchronism Check VS Connection (Global setting VSCONN = VS) on page 2.15 and
Broken-Delta VS Connection (Global setting VSCONN = 3V0) on page 2.15.
Current Channel IN does not need to be connected. Channel IN provides current I
N
for the neutral-ground overcurrent
elements. Separate from Channel IN, the residual-ground overcurrent elements operate from the internally derived
residual current I
G
(I
G
= 3I

A
+ I

C
). But in this residual connection example, the neutral-ground and residual-
ground overcurrent elements operate the same because I
N
= I
G
.
