In the current paths there are three input transformers; the digitized sum of the trans-
former currents of one side must be almost zero for generators with isolated starpoint
during earth-fault-free operation. A current circuit fault is detected if

| > ΣI THRESHOLD · I

+ ΣI FACTOR · I
max
ΣI THRESHOLD and ΣI FACTOR are programmable settings. The component ΣI
FACTOR · Imax takes into account the admissible current-proportional transformation
error of the input transformer, which can occur particularly when high fault current
levels are present (see the following figure). The dropout ratio is about 95 %.
This malfunction is signaled as “Failure Σ I”.
The current sum monitoring is not executed if the starpoint was set as 273 at Power
System Data 1 (address low-resist.).

Measured Value Ac-
quisition Voltages
Four measuring inputs are available in the voltage path: If three of them are used for
phase-earth voltages, and one input for the displacement voltage (e–n voltage from
the broken delta winding or neutral transformer) of the same system, a fault in the
phase-earth voltage sum is detected if

max
Here SUM.thres. U and SUM.Fact. U are parameter settings, and U
max
is the
highest of the phase-earth voltages. Factor k
U
considers the transformation ratio dif-
ferences between the displacement voltage input and the phase voltage inputs (pa-
rameter k
U
= Uph / Udelta Address 225). The SUM.Fact. U x U
max
component
considers admissible voltage-proportional transformation errors of the input transduc-
ers, which can be especially large in the presence of high voltages (see the following
figure).
This malfunction is reported as “Fail Σ U Ph-E”.
