FUNCTION
Range: Disabled, Enabled
Default: Disabled
ECA
Range: 0° to 359° in steps of 1°
Default: 30°
The setting is used to select the element characteristic angle, i.e. the angle by which the
polarizing voltage is shifted in the leading direction to achieve dependable operation.
POLARIZING V THRESHOLD
Range: 0.050 to 3.000 x VT in steps of 0.001 x VT
Default: 0.700 x VT
The setting is used to establish the minimum level of voltage for which the phase angle
measurement is reliable. The setting is based on VT accuracy.
REV WHEN V MEM EXP
Range: No, Yes
Default: No
The setting is used to select the required operation upon expiration of voltage memory.
When set to "Yes" the directional element output value is forced to 'Reverse' when
voltage memory expires; when set to "No" the directional element is 'Forward' when
voltage memory expires.

The Phase Directional element responds to the forward load current. In the case of a
following reverse fault, the element needs some time – in the order of 8 ms – to change the
directional signal. Some protection elements such as Instantaneous Overcurrent may
respond to reverse faults before the directional signal has changed. A coordination time of
