Current Protection: Measured Earth Fault (50G, 51G)
The earth current is measured directly via dedicated current analogue inputs. These optional elements utilise
either RMS or Fundamental current values as defined by the 51G/50G Measurement setting (MEASURED E/F
menu).
3.4.1 Instantaneous Measured Earth Fault Protection (50G)
Optionally two instantaneous measured earth fault elements are provided, each can be selected to either winding
1 or winding 2.
Each instantaneous element has independent settings for pick-up current 50G-n Setting and a follower time
delay 50G-n Delay. The instantaneous elements have transient free operation.
Operation of the instantaneous measured earth fault elements can be inhibited from:
Inhibit 50G-n
