• Presence of special railway frequencies (e.g. 16.7Hz or 25Hz) in the three-phase
power system
• Sensitive reverse power protection
• Stator or rotor ground fault protection for special injection frequencies (e.g. 25Hz)
• etc.
The filter output can also be connected to the measurement function blocks such as
CVMMXN (Measurements), CMMXU (Phase current measurement), VMMXU
(Phase-phase voltage measurement), etc.
The filter has as well additional capability to report the exact frequency of the extracted
signal. Thus the user can check the actual frequency of some phenomenon in the power
system (e.g. frequency of the sub-synchronous currents) and compare it with expected
value obtained previously by either calculation or simulation. For the whole three-
phase filter group the frequency of the signal connected to the first input (i.e. phase A)
is reported. This value can be then used either by over-/under-frequency protections or
reported to the built-in HMI or any other external client via the measurement blocks
such is the CVMMXN.
How many samples in the memory are used for the phasor calculation depends on the
setting parameter FilterLength.
samples for phasor calculation by the filter. Note that the used number of samples is
always a power of number two.

Note that the selected value for the parameter FilterLength automatically defines
certain filter properties as described below:
First in order to secure proper filter operation the selected length of the filter shall
always be longer than three complete periods of the signal which shall be extracted.
Actually the best results are obtained if at least five complete periods are available
within the filtering window. Thus, this filter feature will limit which filter lengths can
