into account, the reference voltage V0 can be rotated through an adjustable angle (parameter Rotation
angle of ref. volt. ). This moves the vector of the rotated reference voltage close to the vector of the
short-circuit current -3I0. Consequently, the result of direction determination is as reliable as possible.
Figure 6-66 illustrates the relationship based on a 1-phase-to-ground fault in phase A. The fault current has a
phase displacement of 180° to the fault current IscA and lags the fault voltage by the fault angle φsc. The
reference voltage V0 is rotated by φrot which is -45°.

Zero-Sequence Values
The rotated reference voltage V
ref, rot
and the parameter Forward section +/- define the forward and
reverse ranges, see Figure 6-67. The forward range is calculated as ± Δφ° around the rotated reference voltage
V
ref, rot
. Δφ is set with the parameter Forward section +/- . If the short-circuit current vector -3I0 is
located in this range, the device decides on the forward direction. In the mirrored range, the device decides on
the reverse direction. In the intermediate range, the direction is undetermined.
