the angular trip semi-sector can be
regulated relative to the characteristic half-axis in the range 1…180°.
For all four thresholds (common configuration), (“Insens-Zone=ON”) activates and (“Ins-
ens-Zone=OFF”) deactivates a zone of insensitivity in the voltage current characteristic of protec-
tion 67N. When activated, the insensitivity zone remains defined between the set amperometric and
voltmetric thresholds and their values multiplied by M, which can be set in the range 1.5…10.0 for
all four thresholds together. This insensitivity zone can be used to prevent undesirable trip of the
protection due to permanent residual voltages and currents which violate the configured thresholds.
The parameters Insens-Zone (OFF, ON) and M can be set in the menu Set \ Protections \ Ground
directional overcurrent - 67N \ Common configurations.

In modulus operating mode, if the protection is not switched to non-directional, the start (START) of
any threshold of protection 67N occurs when the following conditions A) and B) are both satisfied:
A) With “Insens-Zone=OFF”:
- Value of the residual current (I
E
) greater than the amperometric threshold (I

threshold in point A).
