Typical Application
Settings and measurements are used to determine if the measured system impedance is within the
tripping criteria to indicate loss of excitation.
This consists of two mho circles with the lower edge offset from the R axis by an equal distance typically
set to 1.1*Xd. The diameter of the smaller circle (Z1) is typically set so that the upper edge is located at
X'd/2 below the R axis. The larger circle (Z2) and the directional blocking are both set to coordinate with
the steady-state stability limit of the generator. The larger circle has a time delay to prevent nuisance
tripping. Refer to Figure 87.
