CHAPTER 5: SETTINGS
The neutral instantaneous overcurrent element can be used as an instantaneous function with no intentional delay or as a
definite time function. The element essentially responds to the magnitude of a neutral current fundamental frequency
phasor calculated from the phase currents. A positive-sequence restraint is applied for better performance. A small portion
(6.25%) of the positive-sequence current magnitude is subtracted from the zero-sequence current magnitude when
forming the operating quantity of the element as follows:
The positive-sequence restraint allows for more sensitive settings by counterbalancing spurious zero-sequence currents
resulting from:
•
System unbalances under heavy load conditions
•
Transformation errors of current transformers (CTs) during double-line and three-phase faults
•
Switch-off transients during double-line and three-phase faults
The positive-sequence restraint must be considered when testing for pickup accuracy and response time (multiple of
pickup). The operating quantity depends on how test currents are injected into the relay (single-phase injection):

— This setting specifies the neutral instantaneous overcurrent pickup level in per-unit values.
NEUTRAL IOC1 PICKUP
— This setting delays the assertion of the

— This setting specifies a delay for the reset of the neutral instantaneous overcurrent element

between the operate output state and the return to logic 0 after the input passes outside the defined pickup range. This
setting is used to ensure that the relay output contacts are closed long enough to ensure reception by downstream
equipment.a
