factor BAL. FACTOR I represents the allowable asymmetry of the phase currents
while the limit value BALANCE I LIMIT is the lower limit of the operating range of
this monitoring (see the following figure). Both settings are adjustable. The dropout
ratio is about 95 %.
This malfunction is signaled as "Fail I balance".

Voltage Symmetry From the phase-to-ground voltages, the rectified average value is formed as a check
for symmetry of absolute values. The smallest phase voltage is compared to the larg-
est. Asymmetry is recognised if

factor BAL. FACTOR U is the measure for the asymmetry of the conductor voltages;
the limit BALANCE U-LIMIT is the lower limit of the operating range of this monitoring
(see following figure). Both settings are adjustable. The dropout ratio is about 95 %.
This malfunction is reported as "Fail U balance".
If the 90% stator earth fault protection functions are active, a zero voltage results on
voltage asymmetry. If this cause protection pickup, monitoring is relegated to the back-
ground and issues no indication.
