operating area of OV characteristic. The OVr1 element is used to check for the presence of
voltage on the running-line; similarly, the OVi1 element is used to check for the presence of
voltage on the incoming-line. The user can set pick-up thresholds using the settings [OVR1]
and [OVI1].

(ii) Undervoltage-relay elements (UVr1, UVi1)
Two undervoltage-relay elements (UVr1 and UVi1) are provided to determine the absence of
voltage on the running and incoming lines. In Figure 4.6-2 the hatched area depicts the
operating area of the UV characteristic. The UVr1 element is used to check for the absence of
voltage on the running-line; similarly, the UVi1 element is used to check for the absence of
voltage on the incoming-line. The user can set drop-off thresholds using the settings [UVR1]
and [UVI1].
