Figure 2-12 Logic of the phase-phase measuring system
Phase-Earth Loops For the calculation of the phase-earth loop, for example during a L3–E short-circuit
(Figure 2-13) it must be noted that the impedance of the earth return path does not
correspond to the impedance of the phase. In the loop equation

From this the line impedance can be extracted

The factor Z

L
solely depends on the line parameters and not on the fault distance.
The evaluation of the phase-earth loop does not take place as long as the affected
phase is switched off (during single-pole dead time), to avoid an incorrect measure-
ment with the undefined measured values existing in this state. A state recognition
provides the corresponding block signal. A logic block diagram of the phase-earth
measuring system is shown in Figure 2-14.
