Depending on the fault type, appropriate voltage and current signals are selected from the phase quantities before applying
equations 6 and 7 (the superscripts denote phases, the subscripts denote stations):
• For AG faults: V V
=

• For BG faults: V V
=

C
• For CG faults: V V ,
=
A A
• For AB and ABG faults:
• For BC and BCG faults:
• For CA and CAG faults:
where K is the zero sequence compensation factor (for equations 8a to 8f)
0
• For ABC faults, all three AB, BC, and CA loops are analyzed and the final result is selected based upon consistency of
the results
The element calculates the distance to the fault (with m in miles or kilometers) and the phases involved in the fault.
