In the following, typical applications are described for the restricted ground-fault protection.
Protection of a Solidly Grounded Star Winding (Y Side)

Figure 6-271 Application Star Side
This application is a standard application. Here the phase currents of one side and the neutral-point current
are processed. The function is located in the Transformer Side function group.
The following figure show the structural division of the function. The restricted ground-fault protection gets
its measurands from the current transformers, which are connected to the Transformer side function group.
The neutral-point current is guided via the Transformer neutral point function group to the Transformer
side function group. To be compatible with SIPROTEC 4 (including reference arrow definition of the restricted
ground-fault protection), in addition to the magnitude scaling of the neutral-point current, a rotation of the
polarity (phase rotation by 180°) is also done in the Transformer neutral point function group.
NOTE
The fault record indicates the analog traces according to the connection. For this reason, the neutral-point
current is shown rotated by 180° in comparison to SIPROTEC 4.
