Phase comparison principle:
The test for direction can be summarized by the following equation:
If (|I
| > B
or (|I
| > K x I
ts
1
ts
r
Then DIR = abs ( <Its - <Ins ) > 90°
else DIR = 1
where:
I
= restraining current
r
DIR = flag indicating that the phase comparison principle is satisfied,
B
= breakpoint 1 setting,
1
I
, I
= current phasor at the terminal and neutral side banks, respectively
ts
ns
K = factory constant of 0.25
There are three DIR flags (one per phase). The corresponding FlexLogic operands are:
•
Percent Diff Dir A
•
Percent Diff Dir B
•
Percent Diff Dir C
That the above CT saturation (SAT) and phase direction (DIR) checking are applicable to
internal summation method only. If the Core balance method is selected, neither SAT nor
DIR check is performed, the fixed values SAT=0 and DIR = 1 are used.
