8.1 OVERVIEW
Note that the ratios of the capacitances between phase A and the two other phases are close to unity, and therefore the
correcting factors in equation 8.25 for the B and C-phase voltages are small numbers, while the factor for the V
close to 3. If so, equation 8.25 takes a familiar simplified form:
The V
term in the operate equation can be either the neutral component in the bus voltages (one-third of the vectorial sum
0
of the phase voltages calculated by the relay), or directly measured neutral voltage component (open-corner-delta VT volt-
age).
c) SENSITIVITY
Now consider the consequences of a capacitor element failure in one leg, most conveniently leg C, making a small capaci-
tance change in leg-C capacitance. The effect on the operating signal can be calculated by taking the derivative of equation
8.25 with respect to C
the initial value is zero, the derivative of the absolute function is simply the absolute value of the derivative of its argument.
As such, the derivative is:
---------- - V
dC
Recall equation 8.29.
Differentiating this gives:
Substituting for V
from equation 8.34 gives:
X
This can be substituted into equation 8.33 to obtain:
