Line differential protection RED670 2.1 IEC
Product version: 2.1
A line charging current compensation provides increased
sensitivity of line differential protection.
Line differential protection 3 or 6 CT sets, with in-zone
transformers LT3CPDIF , LT6CPDIF
Two two-winding power transformers or one three-winding
power transformer can be included in the line differential
protection zone. In such application, the differential protection
is based on the ampere turns balance between the transformer

Analog signal transfer for line differential protection
The line differential protection function can be arranged as a
master-master system or a master-slave system alternatively.
In the former, current samples are exchanged between all IEDs,
and an evaluation is made in each IED. This means that a 64
kbit/s communication channel is needed between every IED
included in the same line differential protection zone. In the
latter, current samples are sent from all slave IEDs to one
master IED where the evaluation is made, and trip signals are
sent to the remote ends when needed. In this system, a 64
kbit/s communication channel is only needed between the
IED

correctly represented with vector group compensations made
in the algorithm. The function includes 2
restraint and zero-sequence current elimination. The phase-
segregated differential protection with single-pole tripping is
usually not possible in such applications.
