The sampling frequency and the synchronism of the analog-digital converters is con-
tinuously monitored. If any deviations cannot be removed by remedied synchroniza-
tion, then the processor system is restarted.

Currents
Up to four input currents are measured by the device. If the three phase currents and
the earth fault current from the current transformer star point or a separated earth
current transformer of the line to be protected are connected to the device, their digi-
tised sum must be zero. Faults in the current circuit are recognised if

and Σ,)$&725 are setting parameters. The component Σ,)$&725 · Σ | I | takes
into account the allowable current proportional ratio errors of the input transducers
which are particularly prevalent during large fault currents (Figure 2-138). The dropout
ratio is about 97 %. Σ | I | is the sum of all currents:

Note
Current sum monitoring can operate properly only when the residual current of the
protected line is fed to the fourth current input (I
4
) of the relay.

Voltages
Four measuring inputs are available in the voltage path: three for phase–earth voltag-
es as well as one input for the displacement voltage (e-n voltage of an open delta con-
nection) or a busbar voltage. If the displacement voltage is connected to the device,
the sum of the three digitized phase voltages must equal three times the zero se-
quence voltage. Errors in the voltage transformer circuits are detected when

allows for a difference of the transformation ratio between the displace-
ment voltage input and the phase voltage inputs (parameter 8SK8GHOWD). The
dropout ratio is about 97%.
