It is recommended to use the second harmonic and the waveform
based inrush blocking from the TR2PTDF function, if available.

Application

Transformer protections require high stability to avoid tripping during magnetizing
inrush conditions. A typical example of an inrush detector application is doubling the
start value of an overcurrent protection during inrush detection.
The inrush detection function can be used to selectively block overcurrent and earth-
fault function stages when the ratio of second harmonic component over the
fundamental component exceeds the set value.
Other applications of this function include the detection of inrush in lines connected
to a transformer.
