Measured input The function block uses phase-to-neutral voltage magnitudes or calculated zero sequence component (as the user selects). Neutral overvoltage protection is scaled to line-to-line RMS level. When the line- to-line voltage of a system is 100 V in the secondary side, the earth fault is 100 % of the U and the calculated zero sequence voltage reaches 100/√3 V = 57.74 V.

When a fault is not present when the breaker is closed but reappears soons after (called 'discrimination time' and 'reclaim time'), the auto-recloser function can either arm another shot or give the final trip command and the feeder becomes locked.
