The phase angles of three-phase measured unbalance currents are synchronized
using the phase current I_A as reference. The phase-A unbalance current phase
angle can be calculated with the equation.

A three-phase H-bridge-connected capacitor bank circuit may have some amount of
natural unbalance current flowing through the common points of H-bridge, which
may primarily be due to capacitor manufacturing tolerances. Therefore, the natural
unbalance current must be compensated for before using the measured unbalance
current for function operation.
The natural unbalance current needs to be recorded when there is no fault in
the capacitor banks, and it is initiated through the command
available under menu path Control > HCUBPTOC. The natural unbalance currents
are recorded for all the phases at the same time by setting command
unbalance to "Record all phases" or each natural unbalance current can be
recorded separately for individual phases by setting command
to "Record phase A" or "Record phase B" or "Record phase C". By selecting
unbalance with value "Record", the measured three-phase unbalance currents

the monitored data view.
Once a natural unbalance current is recorded, the phasewise natural unbalance
current is subtracted from the corresponding phase-measured unbalance current
