Figure 186: Step 1 fault calculation 1
The fault is located at the borderline between instantaneous and delayed operation of
the line protection, such as Distance protection or line residual overcurrent protection.
This calculation gives the current fed to the protection: 3I
The setting of step 1 can be chosen within the interval shown in equation 186.

Where:
lowmar is a margin to assure selectivity (typical 1.2) and
highmar is a margin to assure fast fault clearance of busbar fault (typical 1.2).
Setting of step 2
The setting of the sensitive step 2 is dependent of the chosen time delay. Often a
relatively long definite time delay or inverse time delay is chosen. The current setting
