In a normal transmission network a normal value of RCA is about 65°. The setting range
is -180° to +180°.

Normally voltage polarizing from the internally calculated residual sum or an external
open delta is used.
Current polarizing is useful when the local source is strong and a high sensitivity is
required. In such cases the polarizing voltage (3V
necessary to use current polarizing or dual polarizing. Multiply the required set current
(primary) with the minimum impedance (ZNpol) and check that the percentage of the
phase-to-ground voltage is definitely higher than 1% (minimum 3V

RNPol, XNPol: The zero-sequence source is set in primary ohms as base for the current
polarizing. The polarizing voltage is then achieved as 3I
