Operation principle

The basic impedance algorithm for the operation of Load encroachment LEPDIS is the
same as for the distance zone measuring function. LEPDIS includes three impedance
measuring loops intended for phase-to-phase as well as for three-phase faults.
The difference compared to the distance zone measuring function is in the combination
of measuring quantities (currents and voltages) for different types of faults.
The current pickup condition DLECND is based on the following criteria:
1. Residual current criteria
2. Load encroachment characteristic
The DLECND output is non-directional.
Load encroachment
Each of the three measuring loops has its own load encroachment characteristic based
on the corresponding loop impedance. The load encroachment functionality is always
active but can be switched off by selecting a high setting.
The outline of the characteristic is presented in figure 77. As illustrated, the resistive
blinders and the angle of the sectors are the same in all four quadrants.
