Line application example

Four step residual overcurrent protection can be used in different ways. Below is
described one application possibility to be used in meshed and effectively grounded
systems.
The protection measures the residual current out on the protected line. The protection
function has a directional function where the polarizing voltage (zero-sequence voltage)
is the polarizing quantity.
The polarizing voltage and current can be internally generated when a three-phase set of
voltage transformers and current transformers are used.

The different steps can be described as follows.
Step 1
This step has directional instantaneous function. The requirement is that overreaching of
the protected line is not allowed.
