    This lower level of sensitivity is easily achieved by Derived Earth Fault protection which uses the calculated sum of the three phase currents as its operating quantity. The 7SR224 provides this feature by allowing the 50/51G Measured earth fault elements to alternatively use a calculated quantity whilst the 50/51SEF elements use the I measured quantity.

    The calculation of the value of the Stability Resistor is based on the worst case where one CT fully saturates and the other balancing CT does not saturate at all. A separate Siemens Protection Devices Limited Publication is available covering the calculation procedure for REF protection. To summarise this: The relay Stability (operating) Vs voltage is calculated using worst case lead burden to avoid relay operation for through-fault conditions where one of the CTs may be fully saturated.
