Figure 3.2-2 Through Fault, zero ohm pilots, Negative half cycle.

Figure 3.2-1 & Figure above represents the operations of Solkor R protection with zero ohm pilots so that the
loop resistance is represented entirely by the 500 ohm padding resistor in each relay and the 1000ohm sum in the
pilot circuit is in one leg of the pilot circuit as shown, R
Resistors R are of greater resistance than the pilot loop resistance R
a
to occur within the resistors R
throughout the cycle is now always negative. This voltage bias must be overcome before operation can take
place; consequently the effect is to enhance the stability of the protection against through faults.
