2.15 Flexible Protection Functions
The flexible protection function is applicable for a variety of protection principles. The user can create up to 20
flexible protection functions and configure them according to their function. Each function can be used either
as an autonomous protection function, as an additional protective element of an existing protection function or
as a universal logic, e.g. for monitoring tasks.
2.15.1 Description
General
The function is a combination of a standard protection logic and a characteristic (measured quantity or derived
quantity) that is adjustable via parameters. The characteristics listed in table 2-6 and the derived protection
functions are available.
Please note that no power values or frequency values are available if you are not using a voltage connection.
