Parallel line in service – setting of zone 2
GUID-98D11A72-C5BE-4C67-ADB5-95124C2AF987 v1
Overreaching zones (in general, zones 2 and 3) must overreach the protected circuit
in all cases. The greatest reduction of a reach occurs in cases when both parallel
circuits are in service with a single phase-to-earth fault located at the end of a
protected line. The equivalent zero sequence impedance circuit for this case is
equal to the one in figure
174 in section Parallel line in service .
The components of the zero sequence impedance for the overreaching zones must
be equal to at least:

Check the reduction of a reach for the overreaching zones due to the effect of the
zero sequence mutual coupling. The reach is reduced for a factor:

Parallel line is out of service and earthed in both ends

Apply the same measures as in the case with a single set of setting parameters. This
means that an underreaching zone must not overreach the end of a protected circuit
for the single phase-to-earth faults.
Set the values of the corresponding zone (zero-sequence resistance and reactance)
equal to:
