Other protection functions may overlap with these functions during testing, it may be useful to disable some 
functions to avoid ambiguity.  
These elements can be allocated to W1 or W2 current inputs by relay settings, ensure that current is injected on 
the correct input. 
Particular care should be taken when testing overcurrent functions that the thermal rating of the current inputs is 
not exceeded.
