Application manual
Both current limits IMinOpPGZx and IMinOpPPZx are automatically reduced to 75% of
regular set values if the zone is set to operate in reverse direction, that is, OperationDir is
set to Reverse.
OpModePPZx and OpModePEZx
These settings, two per zone (x=1,2..5&RV), with options {Off, Quadrilateral, Mho,
Offset}, are used to set the operation and characteristic for phase-to-earth and phase-to-
phase faults, respectively.
For example, in one zone it is possible to choose Mho characteristic for the three Ph-Ph
measuring loops and Quadrilateral characteristic for the three Ph-E measuring loops.
DirModeZx
This setting defines the operating direction for zones Z3, Z4 and Z5 (the directionality of
zones Z1, Z2 and ZRV is fixed). The options are Non-directional, Forward or Reverse.
The result from respective set value is illustrated in figure184, where the positive
impedance corresponds to the direction out on the protected line.

The logic for the linking of the timer settings can be described with a module diagram. The
following figure shows only the case when TimerModeZx is selected to Ph-Ph and Ph-G.
