Pick-up & Time test:-
*NOTE: The Relay will be tested at loopback internal mode
It should be noted that the minimum operating current is related, but not equal to the Is1 SETTING
Consider a single end fed fault with no load but fault current, I:-
|Idiff| = I
|Ibias| = ½I
Assuming |Ibias| < Is2, then, using the equations from section 2.1( from manual ), the relay will operate if:-
|Idiff| > k1.| Ibias| + Is1 or
I > k1.½I + Is1 or
I> Is1 / (1 - 0.5 k1)
The minimum operating current is therefore a function of the Is1 and k1 settings. Since k1 is recommended to be
set to 30%, the minimum operating current will be:-
Imin = 1.176 1s1
I Diff I > ( k1 * I I Bias I+ Is1 )/2 = 0.118 A
