GROUPED ELEMENTS
The forward-looking function is designed to be more secure compared to the reverse-looking function, so use the forward-
looking function for the tripping direction. The reverse-looking function is faster compared to the forward-looking function,
so use the reverse-looking function for the blocking direction. This allows for better protection coordination. Take this bias
into account when using the negative-sequence directional overcurrent element to directionalize other protection
elements. The negative-sequence current must be greater than the
setting value.

impedance is to guarantee correct identification of fault direction on series compensated lines (see the Application of
Settings chapter for information on how to calculate this setting). In regular applications, the offset impedance ensures
proper operation even if the negative-sequence voltage at the relaying point is very small. If this is the intent, the offset
impedance shall not be larger than the negative-sequence impedance of the protected circuit. Practically, it is several
times smaller. Enter the offset impedance in secondary ohms.

overcurrent function instead of a directional zero-sequence overcurrent function as inter-circuit mutual effects are
minimized.
