5.6 CONTROL ELEMENTS
TRANS BLOCK PICKUP DELAY: This setting defines a transient blocking mechanism embedded in the POTT
scheme for coping with the exposure of a ground directional overcurrent function (if used) to current reversal condi-
tions. The transient blocking mechanism applies to the ground overcurrent path only as the reach settings for the zone
2 distance functions is not expected to be long for two-terminal applications, and the security of the distance functions
is not endangered by the current reversal conditions. Upon receiving the
anism allows the

The

time to operate, but not longer than the fastest possible operation time of the protection system that can create current
reversal conditions within the reach of the selected ground directional overcurrent function. This setting should take

TRANS BLOCK RESET DELAY: This setting defines a transient blocking mechanism embedded in the POTT scheme
for coping with the exposure of a ground directional overcurrent function (if used) to current reversal conditions (see
also the
TRANS BLOCK PICKUP DELAY
including not only current reversals but also spurious negative and zero-sequence currents occurring during breaker
operations. The breaker failure time of the surrounding protection systems within the reach of the ground directional
function used by the POTT scheme may be considered to make sure that the ground directional function is not jeopar-
dized during delayed breaker operations.
ECHO DURATION: This setting defines the guaranteed and exact duration of the echo pulse. The duration does not
depend on the duration and shape of the received
lock-up of the transmit/receive loop.

ECHO LOCKOUT: This setting defines the lockout period for the echo logic after sending the echo pulse.
LINE END OPEN PICKUP DELAY: This setting defines the pickup setting for validation of the line end open conditions

open condition is a requirement for the POTT scheme to return a received echo signal (if the echo feature is enabled).
The value of this setting should take into account the principle of operation and settings of the line pickup element.
POTT SEAL-IN DELAY: The output FlexLogic™ operand (

GND DIR O/C FWD: This setting selectes the FlexLogic™ operand (if any) of a protection element used in addition to

tion of the scheme. Good directional integrity is the key requirement for an over-reaching forward-looking protection

tions, this extra signal is primarily meant to be the output operand from either the negative-sequence directional over-
current or neutral directional overcurrent elements. Both of these elements have separate forward and reverse output
operands. The forward indication should be used (
and to overcome spurious directional element operation during transients, adding at least 0.5 cycles of pickup delay to
the forward directional element is recommended.
POTT RX: This setting enables the user to select the FlexLogic™ operand that represents the receive signal (
