ABB REL 356 Current Differential Protection
Zone 2 3-Phase Units
NOTE: Set the "T3P" timer setting to "BLK" before applying the faults in Tables 5-16, 5-17, and 5-18.

Forward Internal Faults
For forward Zone 2 Three-Phase Internal faults use the Table 5-16 of voltages and currents. In each case apply the 3-
phase voltage to the relay system first then suddenly apply the currents listed. Compare the relay system trip target
data to the applied fault values. The target data should be within +/- 10% magnitude and +/- 3 degrees on phase. Trip
time should fall within 100 - 132 milliseconds.

Forward External Faults
For forward Zone 2 Three-Phase External faults use the Table 5-17 of voltages and currents. In each case apply the 3-
phase voltage to the relay system first then suddenly apply the currents listed. The relay system should not trip as
these faults are beyond the reach of the Zone 2 Three-Phase units.

Reverse External Faults
For reverse Zone 2 Three-Phase External faults use the Table 5-18 of voltages and currents. In each case apply the 3-
phase voltage to the relay system first then suddenly apply the currents listed. In each case the relay system should
not trip as these faults are reverse direction from the PANG setting.
