In an arc-suppression-coil-ground system in feeders with a very large reactive current, it can be practical to set
a somewhat larger angle α1 to avoid a false pickup based on transformer and algorithm tolerances.
Parameter: V0> threshold value
•
Default setting (_:103) V0> threshold value = 30.000 V
The V0> threshold value parameter allows you to set the zero-sequence voltage sensitivity of the stage.
The threshold value must be smaller than the minimum amount of the zero-sequence voltage V0 which must
still be detected.
Parameter: Dir. determination delay
•
Default setting (_:104) Dir. determination delay = 0.10 s
The start of the ground fault normally indicates a significant transient behavior. This can lead to an incorrect
direction decision. The direction determination can be delayed for this reason from the occurrence of the zero-
sequence voltage with the Dir. determination delay parameter to achieve steady-state measurands.
The duration of the transient cycle is determined from the system conditions and the respective fault charac-
teristics. If you have no knowledge of a suitable time delay, Siemens recommends keeping the default setting.
Parameter: Operate delay
•
Default setting (_:6) Operate delay = 2.0 s
The Operate delay parameter determines the time during which the pickup conditions must be met to
issue the operate indication. The operate indication is issued when this time expires.
