FUNCTION CHARACTERISTICS
The angle δ represents the phase shift between generator voltage EG and the mains voltage EN.
This angle depends on network load and operating conditions. During stable operation, δ is relati-
vely constant and less than 90°. During hunting events, this angle varies considerably, but usually
remains at values below 90°.
During out of step (system stability which cannot be restored) this angle exceeds the value of
90 °, varying from the value of 0 ° up to 360 °, making a circular path on R-X plane.
Z impedance representation in R-X plane during out of step event is represented by locus defined
by equation (*). The measuring point is identified with R-X plane origin. Assuming the ratio M con-
stant, an out of step event identifies the circumferences as represented in Figure C. The center
and the radius of the circumferences are defined by M value and the center lies on
