9.1.3.2 Meshed network with parallel line
In case of parallel lines, the influence of the induced current from the parallel line to
the protected line has to be considered. One example is given in Figure
171 , where the
two lines are connected to the same busbars. In this case the influence of the induced
fault current from the faulty line (line 1) to the healthy line (line 2) is considered
together with the two through fault currents I
fA
and I
fB
mentioned previously. The
maximal influence from the parallel line for the IED in Figure 171 will be with a fault
at the C point with the C breaker open.
A fault in C has to be applied, and then the maximum current seen from the IED (I
M
)
on the healthy line (this applies for single-phase-to-earth and two-phase-to-earth
faults) is calculated.
