extended security settings. You may therefore set the blocking angle setting in
the extended security mode, 87LPAS, conservatively, while setting the regular
security blocking angle setting, 87LPA, to be more sensitive.
87LQ Negative-Sequence Differential Element
This section describes the application without in-line transformers
(87XFMR = N). Refer to 87L Differential Applications With In-Line
Transformers if you apply the relay to a line including a power transformer
connected in series.
As Figure 3.22 shows, the negative-sequence differential element applies the
basic settings of the Alpha Plane characteristic (pickup, radius, and blocking
angle, see Table 3.6) to its negative-sequence operating quantities (magnitude
of the differential current, ratio, and angle of the Alpha Plane, see Table 3.7).
The logic, settings, operating quantities, and Relay Word bits are virtually
identical between the phase- and negative-sequence differential elements.
Refer to 87LP Phase Differential Elements for detailed explanation.
